I may buy one of those "I Heart NIU" shirts. I'll wear it on Saturday so I can walk into the women's game with a heart on.

[Hey, don't criticize me. It will be my excitement for the day!]

I wonder if that includes that new white #6 T-shirt with the orange bowl patch...the one that looks like the unis worn in the OB.

I have one of those and it's not bad as a T-shirt.

The more I look at those OB uniforms, the uglier they get to me. I know the players got to keep the jerseys, but I hope we never see those red pants again. The whole uniform looks like pajamas to me.

In my book, the fact that they had the Orange Bowl patch on the jersey and the BCS sticker on the helmet make them the best unis I've seen in my 25 years of watching the Huskies. 02-13-banana

I thought the uniforms were outstanding, and in this day in age, that is important.It may be sad, but unless you are a traditional power (Texas, USC, Penn State, Ohio State, etc) you have to innovate your uniforms to what kids today want to see. It is very important in the recruiting process these days. That may be a shame, but it's true. The Orange Bowl uniforms went over extremely well with the players and the younger generation and that is important. I wish they would continue to wear what we wore in 2000, but i know that is not realistic and think they need to cintinue to change with the times.

All of that being said, I was a huge fan of the uniforms. I also think NIU needs to get a 2nd helmet as well. Something more exotic. Keep the current one for most games but maybe redo the old Red Helmet with the NI logo. Something to get the kids excited and add a spark. I remember when coach Novak busted out the Red Uniforms right before a game when we had worn Black for some time. Many were against it at the time but we loved it. Now the red jersey has grown on people and people love it. That is how it works. Our younger generation is into the flash so we should jump on that notion.

I wonder if we will ever see the helmet in the Adidas NIU OB uni promo.

First of all, I love the NIU Orange Bowl uniforms. I hope we keep them in the rotation. Maybe they'll become the "big game" road jerseys like the black ones have become for home games.

I wouldn't touch the helmets, though. They're perfect.

You won't see the jerseys; HuskieInfo posted that the jerseys were given to the players after the Orange Bowl.

Perfect. That's exactly what should have been done with them IMHO.
