True Burnt Orange W

[Brad Usrey]

We concentrate on where to have Nike insignia and our jersies don't  match our  colors. My wife even noticed that old uni's are different.

They updated the unis for this season. I posted a pic of one of the players modeling one. The burnt orange certainly looked off to me.

Unfortunately, why they can't get the burnt orange right continues to be one of life's great mysteries.

Maybe they has too many burnt orange jello shots.

I have a burnt orange shirt from the 80s hanging in my closet. It looks like you took a light brown color and threw in a splash of orange.

I got my first Texas t-shirt in the 70's.  It had a true burnt orange logo. Don't remember seeing them in the 60's, but then I don't remember much of anything that far back. Selective memory, I suppose.

Back in the 70s and early 80s, what burnt orange you found in the store was a crap shoot. When they chose a specific panetone color in the mid 80s is when things became consistent.

And now they're not consistent again.

They seem to be going toward a brighter burnt orange.

My daughter, 2.5 years old, was playing around with this paint set and made this color. I think it was pretty dang close to true burnt orange.

Betting this and the jerseys are being f'ed up by Phil Knight and Nike and CDC has been okay with it.

Color is better, but I mucho prefer the white helmets with the logo over the ear hole. Do not like the logo on top.

Tried to post a picture from another site of Earl Campbell in icy whites with burnt orange numbers and trim but it won't let me 

But it looked damn good.

This is just a concept made by "deeyung entertainment".

To me, the new burnt orange on the jerseys looks closer to the original or actual color. Some of the color on the courts and fields has improved too under CDC

I hate it, too. Its just a concept helmet. I do think Sark throws out something different at some point though.

I will say that the only move they've made with the unis – removing the numbers off the tops of the shoulder pads, is not one that I like.

I like the numbers up there.

So do I. Makes it easier to follow the players.

Sometimes it is close Tenn &  even Clemson

They also got rid of the longhorn logo under the neck. 

I like the logo but it crowds the front of the jersey with the big12 logo, the nike logo, the word "Texas" and the longhorn. 

I'd prefer to drop the conference or nike logo but those are non negotiable.

I think so too. Something subtle, but I can see Sark shaking it up a bit for a game or two.

I'd love all black uniforms with a burnt orange logo

Black body, white numerals and white pants. Burnt orange shoulders with white numerals. Black Helmets with burnt orange longhorn logos. We can try it once.
