OT: is black the new black?

[Tommaker]

I've now seen two teams (OSU and Miami) that don't have even the suggestion of a HINT of black in their school colors wear all black unis for a game (and there's probably more that I've missed). I get it the "kids" want more uni combo's (and the outfitters want more "Ching, ching, CHING" with jersey sales) but where does it end? Will we see PSU in all black? Michigan? ND? I'm guessing the same mentality is what gray into the Purdue color palette (since we were already Cool with black).

OKay, now I'm back to shaking my cane at the neighborhood kids. "You kids get offa my lawn!"

All I know is those uniforms yesterday were BUTT ugly! The pants looked like some pukey azz cream color. And we proceeded to play like we were dressed...

Northwestern has worn black before, and maybe MSU but not for sure...but yeah I don’t get the use of black when it’s not remotely part of your colors.
