The Hokies will wear all white as Maryland is having a "blackout" game in College Park (the uniforms for the Terrapins will actually be black and tan camo in honor of veterans as well as the Wounded Warrior project)

The NCAA should limit teams to 2 sets of jerseys per year: one home, one away. Anything further may be fun and interesting, but its a serious waste of money.

Of course, VT and UMD are probably both getting them for free, or nearly so.

That one's not that bad. Have you seen the FSU ones that they're wearing vs UMD? (Why are they all debuting them against maryland?)

The gloves are sweet. The built in padding is pretty awesome. The shoulder and feather graphics are retarded looking. I think this style could revolutionize uniforms though, like the SoDs in basketball. Maybe not so much revolutionize but certainly change the way football players look. Except in the NFL because they can't use nike junk

I doubt FSU wearing new uniforms are going to make a difference in the game. It will not help the defense in tackling,etc.

Maybe the feathers will make us look like a bunch of turkeys. BTW I don't like the black helments, perfer the gold ones.

I saw the FSU ones on AGS and thought they looked pretty sweet, I think the black helmet looks sharp, but thats just me

The VT ones look retarded though. I hate the faded numbers, and the front of them are too white, its like all of the color is on the back except for those retarded numbers

I know a lot of people didn't like VT's new uni's because of the internet portrayal of them, but once I saw the team wearing them, I really liked them! I thought they looked great! Especially the white helmets (I have always like white helmets though).
