Another day, another new uniform that everyone hates.
This time it’s Arizona State, which released an alternate football uniform for the upcoming season that has drawn the vitriol of just about everyone and their mother on Twitter.
Brace yourselves …
First impressions?
Well, the biggest question here seems to be, what’s with the khaki theme? Not exactly in line with the classic ASU colors …
People are making fun of this but I think it's beautiful that Arizona State is honoring its most illustrious alumni group, the guy in khakis who runs the airport Hertz. https://t.co/MFOmterr0W

Death, taxes, and ASU wearing uniforms that aren’t their regular colors. These are atrocious. https://t.co/isbuYTglCy

Not bad comparisons!
Others, though, pointed to a pair of classic police TV shows.

Other popular comparisons included the Tusken Raiders from Star Wars, Super Troopers and the Average Joes uniforms from the movie Dodgeball.
All strong, in my opinion. I would have also accepted Zookeeper.
While some were busy browsing IMBD, others just chose to take their anger out on Adidas.
Adidas should be arrested

Finally, some fans decided to use this as warning to the Big 12, which has been linked to ASU for months now.
Maybe not for long, though!
I hope the @Big12Conference sees this and doesn’t invite Arizona State https://t.co/yiAigL3Hm3

There has been a huge influx of cruddy graphic designers throughout sports in the last 10 years or so. There needs to be a major overhaul.
