I'm pretty sure the Army-Navy game will remain the same. That game has a brand too.
Navy's new Under Armor uniforms:

I really hope those two middle ones, #96 and #80, just aren't having their colors come through very well in that picture. They almost look like black and come across looking very Army like, which would be a HUGE screw up for Under Armor.

Okay, definitely the quality of the picture. Those were actually all of last year's uniforms.

Baylor has new gray uniforms for 2015
Those are slick.
The dude abides.
I forgot about this thread. Is it uniform season yet?
As rumored, Michigan going from adidas to Nike.

IIRC, Michigan was the flagship adidas school (even though Nebraska was first to switch to them in mid-90s, but I digress) and was earning $8.2M a year from them. Nike must have backed up a Brinks truck to the door.
Through 2014, it appears the top Nike school was Florida State with $4.4M a year. I'd have to guess this new deal doubles that.

Numbers will be announced next week.
Deal is through 2027 (?!?) with a Michigan option to extend to 2031 (?!?!?!?!?!).
Mgoblog currently believes that Nike deal is actually worth less than the Adidas deal, but the department went forward to Nike due to player and department preferences for Nike versus Adidas.

Michigan has always been a Nike school at heart. When they switched to Adidas that's when things went south. Now I can actually buy some Michigan gear, won't wear Adidas.
Also some rumors that Wisconsin may be eyeing move to Under Armor.
More butt ugly uniforms...
Paul at Uni Watch just slams the nail on the head.
Beastly Bruins
By Paul Lukas, on July 10th, 2015
I can no longer bring myself to get worked up about lousy college football uniforms. The whole enterprise now has little to do with uniform design and is more akin to toy design, with the fairly obvious goal of allowing teen-age athletes (and, by proxy, the portion of their fan base that uses “sick” as a compliment) to indulge in some sort of juvenile comic book superhero fantasy. I don’t even roll my eyes at this stuff anymore — I just put it in the Ticker and move on.
But I’m going to make an exception today for UCLA.
UCLA should always be one the best-looking teams in college football. They have an unbeatable color combo, a unique number font, and a shoulder stripe pattern so iconic that it’s named for the school. How could you screw that up?

Love their shoes but any uni that Adidas touches... they destroy! I'm becoming a big fan of UnderArmour though.
