Alabama Gladiators Unveil 2011 Uniforms

New Uniforms with piping and and sword stripes on the shoulders. Red Helmet has a black facemask now too. The Pro Combat features a Gray helmet with a black finish around the edges of the helmet (to blend into the eye on the helmet). It is based off of Gladiator Armor, it will be worn in Week 5 @ Louisville. Season 2 Throwbacks will be worn for the Season Opener against the Quebec Polaires.

Season 2 Throwbacks (Click to see Action Shot)

Yeah we know Michael Vick won't be back next season but we are confident in our "replacement" plans, the new uniforms kind of represent a new era, since Vick was the Starting QB the past two seasons. We are also interested in acquiring a big name runningback this off-season. I edited the uniforms some to make all the sword stripes consistent, TC pointed out to me that they weren't.

Louisville Shockers Unveil 2011 Uniforms

Yeah I've been in a concept mood alot lately, and before the worst Iron Bowl I have ever watched started I worked on this for a couple hours and finished it after the game. I pm'ed BJ about new Shocker uniforms after the season, they have worn probably the most creative uniforms the past 2 seasons. I wanted to keep that going but make it less Under Armor-ish. So that's exactly what I did, I took inspiration from Virginia Tech's Pro Combat Uniforms. Basically replacing the stripes with Lightning Bolts. I also used Tech's number font because I think it fits the team well. Everything else is pretty similar to the last set. Same Helmet, and black and white pants that are interchangeable. Now to the Pro Combat, once again I used TC's Retro Uniform as a base. The Uniforms are "Electric Blue" Monochromes. I moved the stripes down to the undershirt once again, and then the pants use the same pattern but it is like LSU's Pro Combat stripes. I also included the normal primary logo on the pants. I tried using a real picture of lightning bolts as a texture to use on the helmets and numbers but I couldn't get it to look right.

Alternate and Pro Combat

Hope you like them BJ, I'm sure TC will be able to render it in Inkscape better then I could in Paint but I tried my best to make it look good. If you would like changes to anything just let me know.

I will probably go ahead and unveil Alabama's new uniforms tommorow even though I planned on waiting.

Navy Conn-cept

Okay, so I decided I would do a tweak to the Navy's Uniforms, along with a Pro Combat Uniform for them. First thing I did was switch the anchor logo with last year's Retro Anchor. It just looks a lot better IMO. I recolored it so the Navy could keep the original Navy and Yellow colors. The Uniforms are really the same, the cut is completely different, switching it to a Nike PC template. The logo is also added to the pants. The Alternate Yellow jersey has been tweaked a little bit, I reversed the collar colors to stay consistent with the rest of the set. Now to my favorite part of the Conn-cept: The Pro Combat Uniforms. I used TC's Retro set as a base, and I added some Pro Combat elements in here. The Helmet is different, using a Navy facemask and a solid Navy Anchor logo. The Jersey features Gold on Navy, the Flywire is actually colored Gold to bring in a modern twist. The Stripes are also moved to the undershirt to make room for the numbers on the sleeves. I also took the names off the back to throw in another retro element. The pants are solid gold with the Anchor logo on the sides and NAVY on the back.

If you like them let me know Throwback, I can also change anything if I need too. Also guys, check out the Photo section on the Nav Bar, it now has a slideshow of Players. I'm almost done with stats, and I should get around to doing some more PoTW photos this weekend. I also made an update to Hawaii's pro combats.

Hawaii Tropics Unveil 2011 Uniforms

The Tropics are getting new uniforms...again! The Tropics are known for wearing modern styled uniforms and they have changed uniforms all 4 seasons so far. This year Nike has come up with a uniform set using the "Swag Cut" created by me (see Miami in my NCAA Concepts). The Logo is sublimated on the back of the uniforms similar to Nike's SoD uniforms. The set includes a aqua Helmet with orange stripe and aqua pants. The alternates are based on last year's retro uniforms. And I have already posted the Pro Combat Uniforms.

Retro Alternates

Made an update to the regular uniforms, sizemore wanted me to change the number font back to what the used in Season 2.

Hawaii's Brennan injured, Ace's Hall arrested

Tropics Starting Quarterback Colt Brennan was injured in a car wreck and is in Serious Condition. His girlfriend was driving and collided with another car on the interstate.

The Doctor said that Brennan's injuries are not life threatening, but he suffered broken ribs, broken collarbone, and head-injuries. The good thing for the Tropics is that the season is a long way from starting so he should recover but this was just some news that involved our league so I thought I should post it.

Full Story Here

Plus, it could be some Icebreaker news since the site has been kind of dead the past week or so, I've added the Jason White and Michael Vick All-Star photos to Player of the Week, more to come soon. Also, Droozer you need to be letting us know about your team soon, such as the name and if you are relocating or not.

Also.... I forgot to mention this back when it happened, although it was after the season was over. Las Vegas Wide Receiver D.J. Hall was arrested for marijuana in Tuscaloosa, Alabama about a month ago and has been released on bond. I guess I'll leave it up to the league to decide if he should be suspended or anything like that.

Hawaii Pro Combat Concept

Well with the schedule announced and everything, I decided I would do a concept for the Tropics. Since sizemore wanted the helmets he made I tried basing the whole concept off of that and using something similar to Mykl's Japan concept. I used a Orange jersey since they don't have a regular orange alternate. I also put Hawaii on the chest which would be the first time the Tropics have ever put Hawaii on their uniforms. I kind of did 2 options here because I couldn't decide which one looked better, I did one with the Logos blown up on the sleeves and one without the logos on the sleeves. So sizemore if you like it you can decided which option you want to use or if you want me to make some changes just let me know. I also did new set for your regular season uniforms but I want TC to help me finish them so whenever he finds some time to do that we will post them (not rushing you at all TC).

Edit- Made an update, the sleeve logos aren't blown up as much. I also used a block font to match the "Hawaii" text, I added Hawaii to the pants too.

I still have a option without the Sleeve logos so if you rather have that sizemore let me know.

Season 4 Schedule

Okay guys, I worked on this for a couple of hours. I've always seen the Helmet Schedules for College Football teams and thought that would be a cool thing to do. So I have completed the Schedule for Season 4. Hopefully I didn't make any errors because I spent a lot of time working on it but I need everyone to check and make sure I didn't. Every team should have 5 Home games, 5 Away games, 2 Interleague (1 Home, 1 Away). I'll probably update the Excell sheet after new helmets come out and Droozer names his team so until then I'll wait to email the Excell sheet.

The only teams that I updated helmets for were Alabama and San Antonio, but like I said, when all the new uniforms come out I will edit it. The red text indicates Away games, while the black text indicates Home games. Lincoln-Louisville has a star by it because it will be the Globe Game this season making it a neutral site.

Pro Combat Week will be Week 5!!!

So that means.......

Home teams are Boise, Hawaii, Lincoln, Louisville, and Connecticut

Road teams are Droozer, Las Vegas, San Antonio, Alabama, and Quebec

If for some reason you want to wear light colored uniforms at Home then let me know so we can make sure the Road team for that game wears Dark uniforms.

And then in Week 1, Alabama and Quebec will be wearing Season 2 "Throwbacks". TC's idea to memorize his Championship team and I decided the Gladiators might as well throwback too.
