Northwestern’s uniform looked like a costume party gone wrong
A college football blog calls out a team's overly complex uniform design.
The story
A sports blog lists 11 standout and one poorly received college football uniform combinations from Week 8, noting that Northwestern's design had 'a lot going on' and 'the numbering, or the use of gold instead of white' was not to the reviewer's taste.

Our reading
Northwestern’s uniform had a lot going on, but not in a good way. The black shoulder stripes clashed with the purple jerseys, and the gold numbering felt like it was trying too hard to be flashy. It was like someone took a Halloween costume and tried to turn it into a football jersey.
Maybe they were aiming for a gothic vibe, but it just looked like a confused attempt at branding. The result was a uniform that made you question if the team was trying to be memorable or just visually overwhelming.
The only thing missing was a neon sign that read ‘I don’t know what I’m doing.’ Northwestern’s design was so busy it could’ve been a fashion show for a confused designer.
