The first three uniforms on the list haven’t been ugly uniforms, which just shows how good of a job Nike did throughout the years with the Miami Hurricanes.
But for the last two on the list, what the hell?
The Hurricanes went out against Georgia Tech and they decided to combine a green helmet, an orange shirt and green pants to the field. First of all, the helmet and the pants aren’t even the same shade of green. That alone is a problem with me. SAME SHADE. ALWAYS. PLEASE.
This combination falls more on the players and coaches for deciding to put this together. I think they did a decent job with mixing and matching the uniforms last season, but damn, this was horrible.
Miami also lost this game after Georgia Tech ran the same play over and over and over again.
The only good thing about this uniform is that Marques Gayot showed the Georgia Tech punter what’s good.
