More Evidence That Arkansas Will Be Wearing New Football Duds This Fall

The University of Arkansas will be breaking out their third new uniform set since the arrival (and now departure) of Bobby Petrino five seasons ago. After a fuzzy photo of three Razorback-ish unis hit the web last month, AD Jeff Long hinted that the school might be getting some new duds.

Yesterday, clearer photos of the uniforms — taken inside the team’s football facility, apparently — burned through the Razorback messageboards. And yes, there will be a new black jersey thrown into the mix (shown at left).

I say this everytime a school unveils a black uniform: If everyone has a black uni, what’s special about it?

Ah, well, if Arkansas’ players respond the way Ohio’s players did last fall when they saw their own black unis (they went out and thumped Marshall after flat losing their minds — see the video below), then I guess that’s all that matters.

Armageddon is finally here. We will never win an SEC championship. Frank Broyles will be revealed to be a Russian spy. We now have the same colors as Arkansas State. Might as well just merge the schools. ASU has won the war. I curse you, Jeff Long! May you burn in eternal fire! This is how Hitler started. Look for the swastikas on the helmets! I'm burning my Confederate flag and cheering for Penn State! Hell, might as well cheer for Texas. At least they respect their colors. Even the Aggies know something about tradition. Black is not a color; it is the absence of color! What's next? Louisville Orange!?

Thank God Bama never changes their uniforms...

Are the Pigs trying to out-ugly the "O" Ducks? When did black become a school color? Garish

Just don't "unveil" those black unis on the Saturday Bama comes to visit. Such gimickery tends to backfire when you take on the Tide.
