Likewise, not the target market but I liked the 50 yard line red eyes. More silver, and less drab confederate gray may enhance the appearance. Regardless, the Huskies can wear sky blue polka dot and pink tu tus if UCONN wins.

I liked them but the decals on the helmets looked off to me. At some angles they were really shiny and just kind of blended in.

yes, I think the helmets were matte and the stockers were shiny and the stadium lights reflected off them, diluting their color on TV.

I really liked the jerseys

Thought the unis looked pretty sweet under the lights and up on the jumbotron. The red eyes on the midfield logo was a nice touch.

Looks like the players aren't the only ones with alternate digs. Bob's red sweater is looking very smart.
My wife asked me why Diaco was wearing his wife's sweater. Yeah, she has a bit of an edge to her sometimes.

I'm not the target market either. I think the unis looked better in person than on TV but I liked the energy of having the alternates and red eye logo, etc. I think this athletic department and administration "gets it" about the need to generate energy and create events. I feel like we're in good hands.

Just the damn unis had me excited to go to the game. Was hoping we would win to make them permanent. Well done, team.

Are the N.F. Blue Helmets permanently banned? Hate white helmets. The grays were an ok change of pace.

I like the alternate uni's. And the team is 1-0 in them. Have to wear them again sometime!

Grey uniforms will always resonate with Georgetown for me. That and they looked extremely dull.

Helmets were cool though.

If they helped pump the team up, it was worth it.

Parking Situation - I won't waste your time complaining about the parking situation although I was very disappointed on Friday. The situation was bad, from the location to the workers not knowing what the H to do. I did notice that large areas where we used to park were empty and I assume this is because of future plans for the stores. That said, it seems available areas to park are shrinking and they still can't figure out the best way to move traffic in and out. Does anyone know the ultimate end game for the parking situation which is somewhat important if they ever plan to expand The Rent? Just seems to be an all-around lack of planning in this area.

If we need to wear diapers to keep winning and score 30+ per game we should consider it. Fortunately the greys look great.

Not sure I would like them as much in a day game. But at night with the grey on the field etc was nice.

Grey unis looked great...
Helmet and shiny red facemask were absolutely awesome.

Like the grey helmets better than the white helmets.

Would like to also see really shiny irredescent blue helmet with wolf on one side and block C
on the other side with the shiny red facemask

Blue and Grey lots are as is. The red lot will be limited to the left side of the access road behind the Grey lot. Everything on your right as you enter will be developed. Other than a few dullards who feel the need to stop at every cop and parking attendant wearing yellow, there were no issues parking. With a half full stadium, how could there be. My guess it's operator error on the part of people around you.

The houses are being removed from the property next to the East entrance on Silver Lane. One on the left side is already completely gone. The other on the right will be gone soon. Parking will be expanded into those area to help make up for the loss of spaces after the "Evergreen" type mall is built in the Red lot area.

BTW, I loved the alternate unis and helmets. The face masks looked like glow-in-the-dark light sticks. Now put them away and only bring them out for another special night game.

I was actually thinking the opposite....I feel like you couldn't really see the logo because the lights were reflecting off them so much. I wonder if they wore them for a day game if they would look any better? Maybe the reflecting of the lights was meant to happen so the logo shined?? I dunno but I do know that I liked the unis, helmets, and field. Overall pretty cool to see something different. Oh and we won!
