3. Florida State Seminoles

My favorite non-traditional uniform. The spear on the side of the helmet and the garnet and gold (and Charlie Ward) made the Seminoles my second favorite team as a kid. It might just be the athletes they’ve had the last twenty years but even their bad teams of the last few years have looked like they could play. Just a supercool uniform.

Nike has had an impact on their uniforms but they haven’t really screwed them up like they did their instate rivals to the southeast. The only things I don’t like are the small merit decals on the helmets (those are always stupid) and the multi-colored jersey collar.

Check back tomorrow for the second best college football uniform.

I thought he’d be back at Texas when he dropped to the 7th round, but Jordan Danks is motivated to join his brother with White Sox.

Former Texas A&M safety Terrence Kiel thrown from car, dies. Our thoughts go out to his family.

Happy 4th of July from Bevo Sports. Enjoy the nice long weekend and be sure to take part in the great American tradition of free stuff by signing up to win NCAA Football for free. We’ll be back on Monday with the top 3 college uniforms, more player profiles, and of course all the latest Longhorn news.

Have a fun, safe holiday weekend.

Future Longhorn Kathleen Hersey earns Olympic berth. Finishes second to Elaine Breeden in the 200-meter butterfly.

Big 12 teams as hot celebrity women. Texas is Jenny McCarthy & Oklahoma State as Anna Nicole is awesome.

Bo Scaife: Stud, or the next Ben Troupe? I think Vince and Bo both rebound this season.

4. Southern Cal Trojans

Probably the ugliest best uniform out there. Despite not really being particularly nice to look at (in my opinion), there’s just something right about them. If you saw a high school team with those wide yellow shoulder stripes on the jersey or the double stripe on the pants you’d think they were ugly but [tag]Southern Cal[/tag] somehow pulls it off.

The cardinal red and gold colors are classics as is the Trojan emblem on the sides of the helmet. Not many sports teams can pull off yellow pants, if you’re not careful you end up looking like Iowa State. They’ve managed to tweak and change a few things in the last few years, namely the number design and jersey cut, without messing with tradition.

They’re not pretty but they’re perfect and I’m not sure why.

Check back Monday for our third favorite college football uniform.

Vikings waive Marcus Griffin. It’s early enough that hopefully he gets a chance with another team. (via)
