Let's tear through some more 2018 uniforms, shall we?
Boston College (7-5 overall, 4-4 ACC) had another respectable year in a tough conference. The Eagles also had some blasts from the past: Two of their wins came against long-ago rivals UMass and Holy Cross, and they also debuted a 1980s throwback alternate. (And if I hear anyone whining about how the originals had no BC logo on the shoulders, they'll have to watch the Mad Fisherman marathon on NESN next Christmas, 'K?) The "Bandana Man" alternate was used for this the straight season. The Eagles reached the First Responder Bowl in Dallas ... which was cancelled by lightning after seven minutes. Sigh.
Fly like a eagle with these BC unis: 2017, 2016, 2015, 2014, 2013, 2007, 2000, 1995-96, 1994, 1989-90, 1984, 1982, 1978-80, 1968-77, 1962-63, 1958-60, 1957, 1955-56, 1950-52, 1939, 1935-38, Rivalry Week (w/Holy Cross).
Well, it had to end eventually, right? New Hampshire (4-7 overall, 3-5 CAA) saw its run of 14 straight NCAA FCS playoff berths and seven consecutive Brice-Cowell musket wins over Maine come to a crashing halt. The seven losses matched the number of combinations the Wildcats wore, which included a slightly altered road jersey with traditional-looking numbers.
Stay Granite Strong with these Wildcat uniforms: 2017, 2016, 2015, 2014, 2010-13, 2000, 1998, 1979-83, 1976-77, 1975, 1968-71 (part 1) (part 2), 1966-67, 1965 1955, 1950, 1947-48, 1938, 1936. Rivalry Week: Maine-UNH.
One year after winning the Ivy League title, Yale (5-5 overall, 3-4 Ivy) also came down to earth. The Bulldogs, as usual, receive a KISS (Keep It Simple, Stupid!) award for using only two combos. One small addition was made: A memorial patch for legendary coach Carm Cozza, who died shortly after the 2017 season.
More Yale uniforms that'll make any Bulldog salivate: 2017, 2016, 2015, 2014, 2013, 2006-11, 1997-98, 1994, 1996, 1979-82, 1978, 1974-77, 1972-73, 1967-68, 1965, 1959-60, 1954-58, 1949-53, 1934-36, 1930. Rivalry Week: Harvard-Yale.
