Apparently Maryland is the new Oregon this college football season... at least when it comes to fashion statements. I caught a glimpse of their new uniforms while I was perusing ESPN.com and thought they looked pretty cool- they're modelled after Maryland's state flag which looks like this.
Bonus for any amatuer vexillologists out there- Maryland is the only state in the Union to have a heraldic flag- based off the arms of Lord Baltimore. Although the sports media punditry has panned the new unis, I think they look pretty bitchin' personally. And it turns out that Under Armor's CEO is a big Terps fan, so he's decided to get all Oregon about it and give them a myriad of uniform options to choose from this season. All of which, I have to say, look pretty damn bitchin'.
Props to the Terps. (And to all the haters in the sports punditry world- remember this? And the multiplicity of other weird combos Oregon uses... Just sayin- I think Maryland wins the battle of the unis.)
