With Oregon and Arizona State off this weekend (They being the most non-traditional fashionistas this year), the Pac-12 had the potential to have a pretty traditional uniform landscape. Think of it as a late "Back-to-the Future Day." But alas UCLA threw a monkey wrench into that scenario. They pulled out their "City" BFBS uniforms for the Thursday Night game. I'm not an alternate uniform hater, so these are actually kinda stylish in my book. But they were matched up against their instate public school rival Cal. That matchup could have been beautiful celebration of all that is UC blue/gold/yellow, but it just ended up looking rather dark, especially at night. Cal's blue is really dark, bordering on black, and UCLA's blue helmet logo on black just disappeared on camera.
Pair that with Oregon State wearing black shirts for the first time since week one, Colorado going gold and white, Wazzu getting "Icey" for the second time, and you get a relatively low key affair out west.
