Virginia Tech v. Boston College

Ok, I heard the announcer saying that VTech is unveiling new Nike uniforms, but Jeez... those things look utterly horrid!

what in the FUCK are the Hokies wearing?

They were my favorite jerseys in all of NCAA two years ago, and they made them progressively worse the last two years.

An utter embarassment. Blegh!

Yeah... that better summed up what I thought when I first saw them, than what I wrote in the OP .

Talk about two teams that I hope get swallowed up by the stadium.

I must have missed some subtle sports news... what's with the ACC "sportsmanship" spot? Is this about burning mattresses?

I thought all the conferences had that type of spot. I see the Big Ten with it every week

They were horrible...but just a one game thing.

My favorites have always been our 'throw back' ones that we wear every once in a while.

Now I am on the hunt for pictures of these jerseys from last night, since I didn't see any of the game. This should be good.

Ehh, OK, I just found some pictures, and they're not nearly as bad as the comments made me expect.

It's just one sleeve as far as I could see. I want the job of the guy who was the big hero for saying "Here's what we do, change the color of one sleeve" and everyone else goes "Brilliant!"

BTW, I hadn't seen that other people had reported the stormtrooper look-alike, but some have in the uni-watch on ESPN Page 2. Amusing stuff
