When I saw them in the dark uni's, I thought maybe SMU brought their home uni's by mistake and we agreed to wear our dark road uniforms instead.

I don't like them. The old unis were outstanding.

Agree tops look like sports bras, not wide enough at shoulder.

Shorts are fine. I like late 90s early 2000s unis. Only Uni I own is 2004 Ben Gordon.

LOVE the GRAY UNIS TOO!

I think they really nailed it with these uniforms. It has the retro look from the 90's and early 2000'S while still having a new look to them as well.

if by retro you mean underoos from the 70's, then yes, they nailed it

The tie dyed pants look more like the product of a frosh manager's inaugural experience with bleach at a laundromat.

You do realize the late 90s/2000s shoulders were slim at the shoulders, and not wide...

We've had some interesting stuff over the last decade from Nike but these were the worst IMO. Remind me of that garbage Adidas was putting on their teams a couple of years back. From the cut of the jersey that paid homage to George Mikan's era to the bland shorts that reminded me of a bathing suit - nothing appealed to me.

But those were v-necks, unlike the ones from last night that were bordering on being spaghetti-strap tops.

I wasn't speaking on whether they were a v-neck or crew neck (even though the new ones have a slight V to them), but on the shoulder width, I think your memory is a little off, the shoulders on the 2004 squad were the same or slightly thicker than the ones last night

I'd be down for red uniforms once a year against a team that doesn't have red in their colors.

How many times have we worn blue at home? I like that aspect, but these uneys suck. The shoulder straps do look like a sports bra as the toad avatar dude said earlier. Widen it

Yeah but that doesn't look like it was painted on. Miller and Purvis looked ridiculous with their shoulders and back muscles exploding from these things. Is that like sexy? Are we trying to get more female fans?

Yeah, those traditional tops from back were quite a bit wider, I dunno if it's the red/white/blue that's throwing you off. The cut is also way different, at no point does the shoulder hole and neck hole run parallel to each other like they did last night. You couldn't see players' pecs from a straight on view back in the day, on the new ones you can.

These are among my favorite of the UConn unis.

Boat has said when he hits powerball he's buying us a new FB stadium.
(Boat Big Wiener stadium if I recall)
