Black would probably look good with white helmets....although I'm a sucker for white helmets

Trim is one thing.


But teams like UK, whose colors are Blue and White, have a black jersey. It doesn't make sense. Then again, my team has a tramp stamp. So whatever.

Why do all these schools have black jerseys when black isn't even an official school color? 


Pretty much every sporting team at Arkansas but the football team has been incorporating black in their uniforms for a long time now. The basketball team started it back in the mid 95 during our season that we lost in the title game.

Yes, we should let our program be run by a bunch of 18 year olds who demand black jerseys

Also, for the record, I'm 20 years old and hate black jerseys.

the black jersey bandwagon is just irritating.
News flash: It's a jersey.
This just in: Not even your team. If you don't like it, don't watch Arky games. Problem solved.

The black ones just make me think Arkansas State/Texas Tech.


yea, Texas Tech was the first thing that came to mind when I saw the black ones.


hmm.... Arky fans are sort of like Tech fans in a "look at me the poor neglected middle child" sort of way...

They need a crop of hair painted on the back down the spine, like the Oregon Ducks have those feathers painted on the shoulders, you know.

Oregon gained notoriety strictly because of their uniforms, and they pretty much sucked forever until the past couple years. Publicity is a good thing and when you have cool uniforms people talk about them.

I think it was just poor design on the black jerseys. They could have looked better.

I love the white ones, but I would have much rather the ARKANSAS been in red, not gray.

It's true.

Arkansas can gain some notoriety by painting some tusks on the side of the helmet and a crop of hair on the spine of the jersey.

Yep that's my biggest complaint. Why would you make it grey there. Makes no sense at all.

So when we suck after this season it'll be okay because we have badass uniform schemes.

I just noticed on the black jersey, The back collar has something on the it. Looks like it says "Ring the Bell"
