2011 Edition: The 10 Worst College Football Uniforms

Ezra AmacherJun 4, 2018

As we enter the new year, it is as good a time as ever to re-rank college football's worst uniforms. Many people have done this before, but with same recent new outfits being worn, these rankings will have originality.

Jerseys may not impact the outcome of the game, but they can be interesting and in some cases, gross to look at. Without further ado, here are the latest worst college football uniform rankings.

10. Syracuse

1 of 10

Although Syracuse has some nice hoops jerseys, their football uniforms look similar to the ones they had when Jim Brown was the running back. They were much better back then, too.

9. Minnesota

2 of 10
MINNEAPOLIS - NOVEMBER 01: Traye Simmons #15 of the Minnesota Golden Gophers celebrates his interception for a touchdown for a 14-10 lead over the Northwestern Wildcats during the second quarter at the Hubert H.Humphrey Metrodome on November 1, 2008 in Mi

Ever heard the phrase, "Too much of one thing is bad." In this case, it is the color "maroon." For the record, Minnesota's football team went 3-9 this season, including a loss to South Dakota.

8. Toledo

I like the dark blue/yellow combination, but the Rockets misplace the colors all over their jersey. Also, the helmet logo is pretty weak considering their nickname.

7. Wyoming

Wyoming's white uniforms are better than their UPS brown ones, but the color combination is still too visible. Brown and yellow is probably the worst color combination in all of sports.

6. Iowa State

5 of 10
TEMPE, AZ - DECEMBER 31:  Wide receiver Jake Williams #13 of the Iowa State Cyclones catches a 38 yard touchdown reception against the Minnesota Golden Gophers during the Insight Bowl at Arizona Stadium on December 31, 2009 in Tempe, Arizona. The Cyclones

Iowa State shares the same colors with the USC Trojans, but do a lot worse job in exposing them. It's amazing to think that this school actually beat Texas and Texas Tech in 2010.

5. Air Force

6 of 10
AIR FORCE ACADEMY, CO - NOVEMBER 11:  James Aldridge #34 of the Notre Dame Fighting Irish carries the ball against Joe Keller #42 of the Air Force Falcons on November 11, 2006 at Falcon Stadium on the Air Force Academy near Colorado Springs, Colorado.  (P

Air Force shows that even with one of the most plain color combos, ugly uniforms can still be created. Regardless, Air Force went 9-4 and beat Georgia Tech in their bowl game.

4. Colorado Against Wyoming

7 of 10
BOULDER, CO - SEPTEMBER 19:  Quarterback Cody Hawkins #7 of the Colorado Buffaloes hands off the ball against the Wyoming Cowboys at Folsom Field on September 19, 2009 in Boulder, Colorado. The Buffaloes defeated the Cowboys 24-0.  (Photo by Doug Pensinge

When the Buffs played Wyoming last season, they must have felt so intimidated by Wyoming's uniforms that they had to create one which was even worse. They definitely succeeded with their light yellow jersey and interestingly shaped (to say the least) horns on their helmet.

3. Ohio State Against Michigan

8 of 10
COLUMBUS, OH - NOVEMBER 27:  Quarterback Terrelle Pryor #2 of the Ohio State Buckeyes rolls out of the pocket against the Michigan Wolverines at Ohio Stadium on November 27, 2010 in Columbus, Ohio.  (Photo by Jamie Sabau/Getty Images)

Ohio State's original uniforms don't look that bad, but what they wore against rival Michigan were hideous. I wonder if these were the jerseys that Terrelle Pryor was trying to sell because if they were, I doubt he got much money for them.

2. West Virginia Against North Carolina State

9 of 10

I'm not a big fan of the military camouflage jerseys unless it is a military school wearing them. West Virgina's uniforms in the Champs Sports Bowl were not pleasing to the eyes and they certainly didn't help the Mountaineers performance.

1. Both Oregon and Oregon State

10 of 10
CORVALLIS, OR - DECEMBER 4: Jacquizz Rodgers #1 of the Oregon State Beavers is wrapped up by Casey Matthews #55 and Wade Keliikipi #92 of the Oregon Ducks in the first quarter of the game at Reser Stadium on December 4, 2010 in Corvallis, Oregon. The Duck

First off, I liked Oregon State's orange cleats and Oregon's silver helmets.

Other than that, everything was ugly. Oregon State had maybe the most horrid helmets in college football history and their jerseys and pants were equally as repulsive.

Oregon did not have even a hint of green or yellow on their uniforms which is odd because those are their two main colors. I can only wonder what uniforms Nike is going to force them to wear for the national championship game.
