Mustard on top of white bread for our first game?

Where's the lunch meat??

Whoops! I guess it's green bread.

Sounds moldy.

They don't normally announce the uniform plan for the whole season....do they?

So guess Mack didn't get Nike to agree to an "alternate" color during 2023? And a black out is out of the question.

They're getting ahead of calls for a Black-Out Game, before those might gain any traction.

But there are still the road game uni's. White jerseys, for sure, but helmet and pant choices could build up the anticipation.

I cannot stand the suspense!

My interpretation of what Mack was saying was that he was trying to distance the administration from what we currently have by saying it was Nike's fault and their response to the scandal. But that in the near future they will be cool again because of him due to his contacts at Nike.

But to answer another question, no I don't think we have announced a uniform schedule before.

Why no yellow/green/yellow? I hate all of those.

Yellow/green/yellow seems like the most obvious choice for home games. Yet, I don't think we've ever done it. A bit surprising.

Don't count on it. Some people obsess over football uniform fashion trends!

Agreed! Full Green Bay is a no brainer. Maybe the Packers have that copyrighted

Our uniforms look cool if we get the color combo right. Away game would look good, green helmet, white jersey, yellow pants.

Home games I would go yellow helmet, green jersey, white pants.

Serious question: why yellow and not gold?

Our current uniforms are meant to be very traditional/old school. Our original "gold" was based on yellow flowers in a meadow. That's why yellow now. Some time along the way (I think in the 70s), Baylor started wearing an "alternate" gold, and that gold became quite popular, though.

Maybe gold became popular because the song phrase "we'll fling our green and yellow around to light the ways of time" just would not sound right.

Agree. Yellow, green, yellow or green, yellow, green would be the best in my view, but none of that. Even white, yellow, green or white green yellow or even white helmets would work for me.Obviously I am not the decider on this!

I've seen Baylor yearbooks from the 50's or 60's that had gold (not yellow) covers on them.

Are curious, what color did the football team year in those yearbooks?

Umm no. Baylor has worn gold throughout its history until 2019 and the colors green and gold have been interpreted literally to mean green and gold since we adopted the school colors up until 2019. Green and gold did not just come about in the 70s for God's sake.

I don't remember looking (it's been over 20 years) and I think most if not all pictures were in black and white.

My dad's jerseys from the mid 1960s, which we still have, have zero yellow on them.

Teaff era uniforms had yellow on them. The bordering around the numbers and around 'BAYLOR' on the front of the jersey were yellow as well as a wide yellow stripe down the leg. These were worn mid 70's until 1989 (give or take).

Larry Isbell, LG Dupre wore Green and GOLD Helmets in EARLY 50's. Seventy three years ago.

I stand corrected.

Man, I tolerated the yellow because I thought it was traditional. Now I'm even more annoyed by it…

This is a color painting of my dad from the 1965 season. He said they always used gold. Some golds brighter than others, but still gold.

And this is his letter jacket - after the 1966 season:

I agree it makes no sense. You laid out what should be obvious. They aren't great but the two combos you mentioned are by far the best homes. The other mixes are fine to change it up

Road is obviously white on white or white yellow white or yellow white white or yellow white yellow. White green white white white green is also fine. Or white helmet with mix green yellow is fine too. It isn't hard
