Another article about our uniforms. Love them or hate them, they're getting UAB some publicity.

I love the scales. Best new uniforms to appear so far this year (I know, it's only week 2).

Definitely good publicity for the school.

Gonna take UAB out of the best uni's convo simply because I would be a homer. Personally, I think this is the coolest new uniform in college football aside from UAB's:



Under Armour surprised the world with Navy’s opening day look. The design was absolutely flawless and the detail was staggering – including each Midshipman’s rank in the Navy.

and the official "University of Alabama at Birmingham" first reference followed by "UAB." Straight outta the Style Guide !

I like the helmets, but I saw them come off a great deal. I realize a lot of it may have been from the opposing team, but is there any way to prevent this in the future?

Why hasn't snoozys tried to sell replica jerseys? Or at least maybe try selling mini helmets of the new helmet. They need to sell more of the new stuff.

No, not really, except tighten the chin straps.

With all of the small things that Coach Clark has already done to try and make the fan experience better, I feel like it's only a matter of time before he throws his input into merchandise (if he hasn't already).

His kid is probably already on that.

And I agree that Navy probably has us beat on the helmet, but we didn't have an anchor to work with. It's not a fair fight.

Because grown men who wear football jerseys look like idiots.

True, but I want a helmet for my basement.

I don't know, sometimes that's true, but personally I'd like to have and would wear a Joe Webb jersey or a Roddy White jersey.

They look better with shoulder pads.

I asked that same question, PM me and let me know what her answer was to you if you take a run at Snoozy's...And for what it's worth, the WalMart in Homewood is selling UAB gear, the big foam #1 hand in green, cups, auto flags, etc. I want that jersey, too, and I'm looking for it...

You can have your own opinion.

A lot of "gangbangers" wear team's outerwear because of the "colors" matching their group's identity rather than any team loyalty.
