I think the all-whites would look a lot better at night. I think daylight and so much white is a no go.

Ya except it's not a night game.

Yeah, I was thinking 6PM game time but not accounting for the time zone. It will still be better than an 11AM game with the sun high in the sky.

I hate the red pants. I thought the all whites looked awesome. I think if the jersey had a trim color to match the pants they'd work better. Red trim, red pants. Black trim Black pants. Nothing ties the two together when they mix and match. Loved the white helmets.

Student volunteers for the honor. Excellent start of a tradition.

I'd wear all white just because of the heat. There is a heat index of between 98 and 97 for the entire game.

RE: Helmets for UNLV
Since UNLV will most likely be wearing gray helmets, red shirts, and gray pants, the Huskies could contrast that with all white, traditional black-red-black, or any mixture of the two.

I prefer traditional away unis vs UNLV, but maybe wear the white helmets against Arky.

Here's an idea. Back to the future. Wear black helmets with the old NI logo vs UNLV.

I would not be surprised to see that sticker for next years homecoming game for the 50th anniversary of Huskie Stadium. I dont see it happening for this year though with all the other new goodies.

They do now...well for the home games anyways.

They also get to vote on what helmet, stickers and pants they will use each week...minus the Corn Fest game that is.
