Breaking out the black uniforms tonight

[cullaville]

The official colors of the University of Connecticut are blue and white, with red accents included on athletic uniforms.

 

[Marat]

As long as we don't ever have red or yellow ones. I am ok with the black jerseys.

 

[XLCenterFan]

I collect uconn jerseys....how in the world do i find one of these? So sick.

It's part statement and part DH mind game....he doesn't want to wear the uni we just lost in. He's got on new boxers too...probably black.

Against a team whose primary color is black (even though they wear white at home).

According to play by play guys on fox it may be “pitch blue”. At least that’s what Villanova calls theirs.

Lol, now there’s a visual no one needs.

US Navy calls their black formal uniform Dress Blues, so they have that going for them.

The cancer helmets worked out well for the football team - so I'm game.

 

[BugsyCT]

Ugh. I wish teams would just go back to wearing their actual team/school colors. Save the alternate threads for merchandising. Kids will still buy them.

 

[uconnfan68]

Burn the black, grey, and silver uniforms.

 

[FfldCntyFan]

Yeah, black unis was a bad idea.

 

[Valleyfan]

Can burn the black Unis now

 

[CTBasketball]

Burn the black uni’s.

 

[3RingsCT]

After this game, take them off and put them in ’ing trash can.

 

[August_West]

Burn the black uni’s.

Like my baby’s husky hat . It kind of smelled like patchouli for some reason aflame.

 

[alphasigko]

Have they ever won wearing these?

 

[AntG168]

Burn em

For what it’s worth, I looked at it UConn page that now list our colors as Navy Blue rather than National Flag Blue. I am at a loss why we keep abandoning the things that make us unique in favor of generic alternatives.
