Since we're all in deep offseason mode... (MSU Uniform History)

[pscf3]

I started HailStateUnis.com (http://hailstateunis.com/) a little over two years ago, and I've since been gradually doing more research and adding more history pages here and there. After cleaning up the football history and adding history pages for baseball and basketball history, I thought I'd share to give people something different to read about during the middle of the July offseason.

What you can currently find on the site:

The "Postseason Histories" are the newest thing on the site, and I'm really happy with how they've turned out. I think they can useful as a general reference for State's appearances in Bowl Games, Baseball NCAA/CWS/SEC Tournaments, and Basketball NCAA/NIT/SEC Tournaments.

Wish we would wear the grey pants with the white jerseys again like we did against Arkansas in 2015. That may be my favorite combo and I don't think we have worn it since.

This really is amazing what you have done. Not trying to steal any secrets or anything, but how the heck do you find out what uniform combo we wore in the 1982 game with Sisters of the Poor College?.....as an example. I'm sure there are pictures and videos or websites, but man that has to be time consuming.

[Goldendawg]

Please don't show Russel Athletic (AKA bama) uni's chosen by "Coach Doom". Even disliked by the "dead Indians". Hail State!

[Lumpy Chucklelips]

Speaking of uniforms.....usually when we've gotten a new coach we've also gotten a new makeover. Has anyone heard anything for this upcoming season? I personally hope we stick to what we've been doing the last few years. I think we've hit on the best that we can do with some of our combinations.

Digitized yearbooks and newspapers were a huge help with the older games.

All of the big Adidas schools (us included) are moving to a new template this year... there will be some tweaks but probably no big changes.

[Goldendawg]

Bring back a version of the interlocking MSU, asap!

[Todd4State]

Bring back a version of the interlocking MSU, asap!

AMEN! As I've said before I don't see why we couldn't have some kind of MSU graphic on the helmets at least a time or two a year (not the same as the Nike MSU) along with the M-State that we currently use and have them co-exist.

I know that when we were with Nike the Croom M-State logo was shown some at the same time.

People are always using the "branding" excuse- but we still get mixed up with Ole Miss half the time anyway. Even with Mississippi State spelled out on the uniforms.

That's because we were usually in rebuild mode and MSU wanted to do something to fire us up, create new interest, and turn over a new leaf so to speak. I think we have found uniform combinations that are fairly popular as far as the colors go so I don't think there will be a lot of change. I could definitely do without some of the stripes on the pants but I'm not going to be up in arms about that.

[Todd4State]

LOVE the web site by the way pscf3.

Follow him on twitter as well. He always keeps you updated with the uniform matchup. Keep up the good work my man.

Awesome!! Great job!

I hear JoMo likes the Penn State look. Probably just change out navy blue for maroon! Just a plain maroon and white generic uni.

I agree 100%. How can interlocking MSU be confused with the words Ole Miss (plantation owner's wife's nickname) on a helmet anyway? Hail State!

Please tell me your kidding

During Kang Jackie's 1st year at State, he let the students have a vote on some uniform options. In my opinion, this led to the best jersey and helmet in my lifetime. MSU grad, class of '77. Hail State! (Today's uni's similar, but have never cared for the MState logo. Love MS in baseball and MSU in all other sports).

bama and PSU have the patent on these plain Jane, ugly as my butt style uniforms. *** No others need apply except Russell Athletic (Croome edition).

Bama's uniforms are great

Situational Unis:

We do better in black than white at home. We haven't won a game in white unis at home since 2003.

Do you really consider them ugly? I know they are generic but they are also symbolic IMO.

Note my ****'s. Seriously, I consider bama's uni's to be classic, all about history/heritage, everybody knows who they are. People know who PSU are but the black/white uni's are both very plain and generic as you noted. I like our present day uni's but prefer interlocking MSU vs. MState logos. Hate white helmets at all times. Don't like gray pants as UNM confederates have used for decades b4 us. Black ok only when we win.** Cop-out: Anything goes as long as players like them and we WIN. Maroon and white are our colors. Don't stray away too often or too long. Guess this covers my opinions after watching the dawgs since 1963. Hail State!

84/85 we’re tge worst then and the worst now. Awful!!
