College Football: Ranking the 7 worst uniforms of all time
2. Miami Hurricanes (2005)
Miami has been called “The U” for some time now but back in 2005 they scrapped the U logo on the side of their helmets to embrace the hurricane warning flags on a gold helmet. Miami’s uniforms looked more like the Notre Dame equipment staff left their cloth in the dryer too long and it faded.
Miami’s current Adidas uniforms are a beautiful homage to tradition and look into modernism, so no complaints about the 2018 model.
However, back in 2005 these were an eye sore. At least Miami came away as the victors because if you were to lose and look bad that would just be a tragedy.
Luckily, it feels as though the most courageous runway look the ‘Canes will have under Mark Richt is his customary black out gear the media was referring to as “Miami Nights” and they weren’t a bad look at all. They fit with Mark Richt’s all black style and with Miami’s renegade vibe from the 1980s.
The ‘Canes should stick to the U always being on the helmet, and always on a white helmet as well. Uniforms can change but helmets should always stay the same.
