Michigan Basketball: Wolverines lead the way in Big Ten uniform rankings
By Adam Childs
Michigan State has a great uniform but the Spartans need to just stick with what works. They seem to want to get fancy too often and it makes them look awful. Most recently they wore black uniforms with lime green numbers and lettering. It was not a good look and to most people’s enjoyment, they would lose the game.
They look great in their green uniforms and look great in their white uniforms if they would just stick with those, except for a throwback we will talk about in a minute. The font is a different font but it looks good for this uniform. It brings attention to some of the letters, but not so much that it takes away from the jersey.
The shorts look good with the double white stripe and the famous spartan logo on the outside of the leg. All of this put together looks great, but I still wish the stripe would go up the side of the jersey also. But it looks good anyway.
The thing that could possibly vault their uniforms to number one is if they wore the gorgeous throwback uniforms (shown above) that have the script State write on them. This goes back to the Magic Johnson days and it looks great.
If they wore this all the time it would probably be my favorite in the Big Ten. Either way, they need to pull it out more and show them off. They need to get away from trying to be fancy and using highlighter green and go back to their roots with the good looking uniforms.
