MSU unveiled its new "brand and identity" program today; you can see all the photos here. The basketball uniforms don't look to have changed much, so this is all about the new football uniforms:
A few thoughts:
1. I don't love the new font, but I think I like it on the numbers. It's only okay on the lettering.
2. I miss the all-white uniforms. They really should have these available.
3. I do like the overall design of the green shoulder/white shoulder uniforms. In fact, I drew a concept that was fairly similar back in '03:
4. All of the uniforms should have shoulder numbers.
5. I miss the "State" wordmark.
6. There's green stripes on the side/back of the pants that are pretty lame, but I don't think Nike can make a football uniform without random stripes these days.
7. These are definitely better than the '02 "gladiator" uniforms.
8. Good call on not using green pants.
9. I am afraid that this is going to start MSU on a cycle of changing uniforms every few years. These are nice enough, but not so great that I expect them to be around in ten years.

Some people are complaining about "gold" trim around the numbers. I'm 99% sure that's silver and that it looks a little off in the photos. If they were to use gold, I'd take back everything positive I said. But that would be stupid, so I'm sure it's silver.
So I was wrong, apparently they photograph funny because the color is bronze. Not a fan.
