The Oregon Ducks football program has used a different uniform in every single game this season.

The Ducks' uniforms have been in a constant state of flux over the years and this year is no different.

The school recently revealed the Ducks' new uniforms for the BCS National Title game tonight.

So, how do the Ducks' uniforms stack up against each other this season?

13. UCLA Vs. Oregon

I'm not sure what was going through the minds of team officials and Nike when they approved this hideous uniform.

It's almost as if the team was trying to punish the home crowd by donning that nausea-inducing yellow.

12. Stanford at Oregon

I understand that green is a school color, but it doesn't look very appealing when the players are covered in it from head-to-toe.

11. 2011 BCS National Championship Game Uniforms

The new uniform for the 2011 BCS National Title game is clean with an all-white uniform with grey accents.

However, if they force all the players to wear those gross looking neon-green socks, it completely lowers the overall appeal.

10. Arizona Vs. Oregon

This color scheme appears to be used quite often with the Oregon Ducks.

However, something as simple as the color of the helmet can throw everything off. That green helmet sticks out like a sore thumb.

9. Portland State Vs. Oregon

They used this color scheme before, but went with grey helmets instead of green. The grey helmet matches up and complements the overall uniform better.

8. Oregon At Arizona State

The green pants are muted and they don't stick out too much, which is usually a good thing.

The colors work well with the white uniforms.

7. Oregon At Washington State

You don't get any simpler than black and white. It's an age old combination that never gets boring. With the adding school color flair, the Ducks found a winner here.

6. Oregon at Tennessee

All white with the green helmets works very well. Very simple with a nice touch adding the school colors into the overall uniform.

5. Oregon at USC

This clean all-white uniform should be worn more often by the Oregon Ducks.

The grey accents on the wings are a nice touch and simple is usually better.

4. Oregon At California

The green on the uniforms are simple and muted enough to not stick out and it matches well with the white.

3. Washington Vs. Oregon

Again, simplicity usually works best and you don't get any simpler than an all-black uniform with grey accents.

2. New Mexico Vs. Oregon

EUGENE, OR - SEPTEMBER 04:  Running back Kenjon Barner #24 of the Oregon Ducks breaks loose for a touchdown in the first quarter of the game against the New Mexico Lobos at Autzen Stadium on September 4, 2010 in Eugene, Oregon. Barner had 225 total yards

The black top and grey bottom complement each other quite nicely here.

It's not flashy, but it gets the job done.

1. Oregon At Oregon State

This grey and white colorway should become a staple of Oregon's uniforms. The grey and white blend well together and it makes for a great combination.
