Dream Japan Bowl (2023-24)

This, kids, is how the the Ivy League postseasons. For the last two seasons, representatives of the Ivy League and Japanese college football have faced off in a postseason all-star game called the "Dream Japan Bowl." Each side has won a game, while promoting international goodwill and and all that fun stuff. Hopefully, the series continues for a while.

The uniforms, as you can see, are decidedly un-Ivy. The Ivy jerseys, with the horizontal navy and royal blue bands, kinda resemble a muted version of those Steelers alternates from about a decade ago. The Japanese jerseys use a very distinctive font that took forever for me to reproduce. (These were easily the toughest uniforms I've ever had to create; all apologies if they're not picture-perfect.)

For helmets, I simply used a lid from an Ivy League champ from the previous season. (The 2023 game was played after the 2022 season, etc.) For Japan, I used the helmet of the Fujitsu Frontiers, who have won multiple Japanese national championships (called the Rice Bowl), including the 2023 season.
