I have no idea what he is referring to, but there are other rumors that some new unis are going to ruffle feathers--both ways. (The Fuddy-Dud in me groans)

This is a FUN trip down memory lane of great hits of Our Beloved Ducks!

I'll be honest... I feel like the retros were a little overused for my liking last year. I know some of the greybeards feel differently and I respect that.

I also feel that Oregon's uniforms last year had two sets and they didn't really mix well. We had the modern color palette of Oregon with the black, yellow and white and then the retro green and white. The yellow of the retros is just a very different shade and didn't work with the modern look.

Personally I'd like a set of uniforms that could be mixed and matched better with a few strictly one-offs.

Oh, this is such a sweet memory of the past, so many players, so many great plays...for the Rose Bowl!

I'm intrigued about "the kit that will be discussed, like, a lot" Hopefully it won't be for the game on Peacock that I don't have anymore.

It's been long enough now that I wouldn't mind seeing some more recent throw backs.

I really do not like the uniforms pre-late 90s. Like none of them except for maybe some from the 1890s or early 1900s or something. I think the uniforms at the National Championship in Glendale vs. Auburn was our peak. I prefer more black, more neon, or maybe forest green. If a uniform ensemble doesn't work with a carbon fiber helmet then it needs to go away. Definitely no pink or blue uniforms, that's for sure.

I agree. I always liked the “Belotti Bold” font on the 2006-2011 jerseys.

I think Nike has had some hits and misses with Oregon uniforms. Trying to hit refresh over the course of a few decades is never that easy. If the players love the combos, and all the swag that goes with the various options, then keep it rolling.

Nike wrestled the NFL contract away from Reebok years ago, and Oregon football definitely played a role in helping them. I think the old saying that you shouldn’t bite the hand that feeds you probably is applicable.

The Bo Nix era uniforms kinda brought back an updated version of the shoulder.

Kinda a nice updated version of that look.

But I wouldn't mind seeings these as a throwback for one game in a season.

There have been uniforms I've really liked.

Others, not so much.

Only problem, Nike doesn't consult me!

Oh well. I guess it's wait and see!
