I guess that's the downfall of being Phil Knight's alma mater: you're always wearing the Emperor's new clothes.

Actually , this reminds me more of the supersoldiers of Anubis from SG1. Still cool looking though.
They could have used better pics in the article though.

ha
indeed
vossiewulf: Which actually is a perfect metaphor for the Ducks' unis.

Mike_LowELL: Repeating what I wrote in a previous thread:

Step 1: Outsource the production of football uniforms to giant sportswear companies such as Nike and Under Armour.
Step 2: Allow them to devalue and destroy the traditional one-or-two-or-three-color football uniform, opening the door for all length of wacky color and pattern combinations.
Step 3: Release "revolutionary" new football "uniform" at the rate that best maximizes sales of new uniforms, likely a period of "once every two or three years".
Step 4: Lol.

No doubt.

It's basically the college textbook scam. :-|

Those unis will look great when the players are all on their backs being run over by the Badgers next week.

Fark Anubis soldiers. These guys are channeling Spaceballs.

MARKED AS SMART

Dired: When they do polls among actual college players, Oregon's always rate really highly. It's a very effective recruitment tool for the 17- and 18-year-olds you need to play for your football factory. Sure, old men who only like old things and want those damned teenagers off their lawns prefer stuff like Penn State's minimalism, but they don't play, and if the team wins (and in college that means you have the best players, who you lured by any mean necessary), they donate anyway. Money.

Bingo. Oregon has become a huge west coast power over the past three years. Chip Kelly now has 3 BCS bowl appearances in three years. They have the sexy offense. The stylized uniforms. The Nike money. And they've recently been sending a lot of quality players to the NFL. Stanford is going to fall back without Luck, so Oregon will rule that division for a long time. I look forward to seeing many Oregon/USC championship games in the coming years.

Personally, I love the black swan concept uniforms. If they came in black and white only I'd probably buy one. Maybe I'm biased here because I love the movie.

Hey Oregon. Victoria's Secret called. They want their Fashion Show accessories back.

Eh, it has more of a Dark Angels feel to it.

Is it just me or do these actually look really friggin' awesome?

Pratty: Is it just me or do these actually look really friggin' awesome?

I kind of like them too, yea.

Pretty sure that article links to itself at the bottom where it says something about "n iridescent sheen similar to that of a mallard duck's feathers."

Screw the Ducks! I hope you guy's enjoyed your time at the top. The Pullman Pirate will be coming for you guys!


Go Badgers!

Fabulous

Looks intimidating

Yep.

Say what you what about Facebook or YouTube (or other similar sites), but everyone seems to agree that "like" and "thumbs up/down" is an acceptable way to applaud posts.

I should start marking all the dumb comments as smart and all the smart comments as funny.

Remember when schools had specified team colors and you turned on the tv and recognized the said team by their colors?

They get so many uniforms because Nikes Headquarters is there ... in Beaverton.

snake_beater: Eh, it has more of a Dark Angels feel to it.

Repent, for tomorrow you die!

Surprisingly incorrect use of "dumbass" tag.

I really hate that Oregon makes me want to root against conference loyalties but...On Wisconsin!

/we just have to deal with the Heisman winner.

They do it to themselves. Most classless fan base in the nation. However, I think UW will do well against Baylor. If not Holt will be gone.

Go Cougs!

Before Nike they weren't O, they were 0. Nike is bankrolling the damn team. I guess it's like the NY Yankees in a weird way... but all that money couldn't help em beat LSU, and probably won't ever.

Tosh said it best..."Nike University".

/Fark Oregon.
//It's a fly over state between Washington and California.

They did the same with MSU's Spartan uni's earlier in the year for the MSU v. UofM game. At least they left Oregon with the correct colors, MSU is green and white. I actually think both of them look pretty awesome, regardless of the obvious cash grab.

Oregon is the Paris Hilton of college football. They wear utter nonsense, have a rich daddy, and are famous despite not actually accomplishing anything.

They are still a better program than they were 10 years ago. The have better athletes and should expect to be a top ten program for the next decade. The cash infusion from daddy warbucks and the cutting edge style worked.

Judging by their performances on the big stage, they should worry less about their uniforms and more about showing up and not getting embarrassed. Although I do get a kick out of them losing.

I was going to respond with something witty but I'm too busy drinking Oregon beer to care. I couldn't care less about the sports here but Portland is pretty cool.

/rain sucks though

I'm no Oregon fan (or one of any college, for that matter), but losing on a last-second field goal in the national championship game isn't what I would call embarrassing.

The Rose Bowl the year before was kind of embarrassing.

In the Rose Bowl they got embarrassed by Ohio State, they got embarrassed by LSU this season, and will get embarrassed by Wisconsin...making them 0-4 in big games in the national spotlight...

I think the over/under should be 80+. Oregon is going to shred the big, slow Wisconsin defense and Wisconsin is going steamroll the mediocre, undersized Oregon defense. It should still be way better than the National Championship game.

Paul Allen already had an NBA team, and Portland won't finance baseball or football stadiums, so for Phil to buy a team he had to think NCAA.

Well hell my Alma mater is a MAC school and their bowl game was more impressive than the NC game will be! lol (also don't know that I'd consider Wisconsin slow by any means...that just seems to be an inaccurate term tied to the Big Ten, Ohio State and LSU were considered "slow" compared to Oregon and both teams trounced the Ducks)

Personally I think Oregon will win by 2 TDs+, but I'll probably be wrong.

If they do, more power to them, but I think they'll get stuffed...Wisconsin is HUGE and they are not slow on offense or defense, so I think they'll crush Oregon. I am guessing 41-24 Wisconsin.
