    Hey I learned something new today - and Vegas Gold sounds cool.

      That one is my favorite, but I don't think it gets worn often. I just think it's the cleanest look, no breaks in the color scheme, and the brown tone just felt professional to me.

      The black unis that were debuted last season weren't awful, but I prefer school colors over blacks, whites, and especially grays (yuck).
      I don't know why, but I have always been a fan of contrast. If you wear a dark top, you wear a light bottom, and vice versa. Must be the old school in me.

      And I have never been a fan of colors that are not part of your school scheme. Black is overdone, but I realize today's players like it. I also didn't like it when BSU had a basketball coach who threw blue uniforms into the rotation (Jeff Guiot). And now some of the BSU programs are throwing gold jerseys into the mix, um, no, not a fan.

      Now, get off my lawn!!!!

        I do like the Winona States all black ones and I believe several years ago they had gray pants for a year or two. If I had my way they would go all black for night home games and all purple for the rest. One tops with purple pants for away games.

          Those athletes don't deserve to be treated like that...

            Blue like lake blue or Babe blue? I mean, I can kinda get both on a one-off from a marketing perspective but it's not like you're really buying or selling those jerseys either.

            As for gold, is it like a Mankato "gold" (aka yellow) or gold like Bemidji's secondary color (more of a tan, I guess you could call that though)?

              Basketball got grays at the same time....also hideous. Other programs may have as well.I'm guessing it had to do with pricing, I'm pretty sure gray ones were considerably cheaper than brown ones. But still, considering how they've ponied (ha) to get the brown jerseys in years since, I'm guessing the alumni and donor base spoke loudly about the grays enough that I don't think we'll ever see that again.

                Probably closer to lake blue. It really looked like the Timberwolves colors, white with blue and green accents, and they also had an all blue uniform with white and green accents.

                The gold/tan is hard to explain. It isn't Mankato or Goofer gold, it isn't Vegas gold, it isn't really tan, either. And the fact that it doesn't look like the same color across programs.....

                Women's hockey only wears them on special occasions, so I am okay with that.

                  Basketball has been on such a tear lately with unis that I guess I forgot they even had them - maybe they weren't quite as memorable because they weren't paired with gold helmets.

                  You're probably spot on - I know the black unis were crowdfunded, I think I gave $10 or something towards them.

                  The football grays still exist... I see them every now and again. Usually for things like scout team and spring practice. So at least there's a silver lining - we're not ruining our good uniforms before the game starts.

                  • Augie and many other schools across this great land have yellow in their uniforms and cal it gold, "baloney" yellow is yellow. Nothing to ashamed of.

                      As a Michigan fan I'm contractually obligated to call it Maize, not yellow.

                        Yeah that "gold" looks like they are using the color of the Beaver.....I don't hate it, but some colors like that don't transfer as well on certain fabrics so it looks inconsistent.

                        I'm surprised I do not remember that blue trim on the basketball jerseys at all. That's definitely interesting.

                              I've always liked Augie's color scheme btw. Cool primary logo too.

                              I have a hockey puck with the throwback logo on it, very reminiscent of the Ole statue on campus.

                                Witt, said AU home uniforms pop on photo's.

                                Mustangs uniforms have true gold colors.

                                Never wish summer away, but looking forward to NSIC football. I try to watch as many games as possible.
