Michigan Basketball: Wolverines lead the way in Big Ten uniform rankings

Minnesota’s uniform is not bad at all. They have the standard font for both letters and numbers and I like the collar having a different color than the jersey. The M on their shorts is their signature logo and it is a good one that definitely makes you know it is Minnesota when you see it. Like Michigan later in this piece, the Gophers wear both white and gold at home. The whites aren’t bad, but the gold looks so much better and should be worn all the time. Plus it gives would give us an opportunity to see a color vs color game every time the Gophers play at home.

What I do not like about the uniform is how the stripe fades to the front of the shorts. I get it is going around the M but it would look better if it split and went to both sides. It would give it a more symmetrical look and more pleasing to the eye. But it does get bonus points for the stripe going up the side of the jersey. It makes it look like the jersey and shorts are in sync with each other and looks better than the strips just being on the pants.

Admittedly the uniform is not that bad, but it is ranked lower because of the maroon away uniform. I know it is their main color for the university but maroon to me is just not a good look on a jersey. I may be in the minority on that one, but with this list, it drops down. The Gophers could do so much worse, though, so keeping it simple works for them, they just have the unfortunate problem of having maroon as one of their colors.
