        UCLA and adidas today unveiled a new TECHFIT football alternate uniform for the 2014 season.
        The new “LA Steel” look marks the first grey uniform in school history. The Bruins’ jerseys and pants are rendered in rich dark onyx grey and feature ultra-light metallic embellishments that shimmer, paying tribute to the bright lights of Los Angeles. UCLA’s famous shoulder stripes complement the city skyline that appears on the sleeves of the TECHFIT compression base layer and the UCLA script mark on the pants. The uniform numbers are inspired by UCLA’s own signature stripes.

        UCLA’s new alternate uniform also features TECHFIT Shockweb technology, one of the most advanced compression systems in the industry. Shockweb clings tightly to the body, making players more difficult to tackle. TECHFIT’s lightweight material allows players to perform at the highest levels by making them faster and increasing their range of motion.

          I'll bet you lunch that one of the select home games is October 11th, teams love trying to show that they are cool too against us.

          • So maybe those aren't fake jerseys after all Utes:

              I know the zeros consider themselves the forebearers of the uni switch craze. While there is no question that they took the practice to an entirely new level, can't we make a decent argument that BYU actually blazed the trail when crowton came to town? Are the cougars the original uni changers?

              Which season was it that the ducks introduced the frequent uni changes? One of the earliest that I can remember was when Dixon was playing there....before they had the feathers on the shoulders they used to have that pattern that kind of looks like a manhole cover. Do you know what I'm talking about?

                I remember the first year they had bright yellow uniforms and it was hilarious to say that they looked like "human highlighters." Sometimes I miss those days when we were all so young and naive.

                  Well, the Oregon uniform craze certainly didn't start before the iconic "O" was first introduced in 2001. The O didn't become the school's official logo until 2003:

                  Considering BYU went crazy with the uniforms starting with the infamous bibs in 1999, you may have a point.

                    Indeed the Oregon uniforms really took a bold turn in 2000 (coincidentally my first year at Oregon) so it would seem that the Bib was a pioneer.

                      I bet the Utes miss Nike.

                          I can't contribute much except this: the name of the pattern in question is diamond plate.

                            Although to be fair, being entertained by a thing isn't the same as giving a shit about it.
