We close out our look at the uniforms of 2022 with New England's three FBS schools. The results on the field vary, but I think these teams have some of the classiest unis around.
Tradition-minded Boston College didn't change a darn thing from 2021, other than the return of the dark red pants. The Eagles may not win much, but at least they look good while losing.
Speaking of teams that used to look good while losing, UConn now looks good while winning; I apologized for my Husky-bashing here. First-year coach Jim Mora didn't change much from 2021 beyond a few helmet tweaks: A red-white-and-blue "C" logo (the only time the Randy Edsall-era big C was used) and a unique cancer ribbon helmet worn for a few October games. The example above is pink, but the Huskies made a dozen ribbon colors available, to "give players a chance to bring awareness to the specific form of cancer that has affected their lives and loved ones," according to a UConn media release.
UMass also had a new coach in 2022 (actually, new old coach: Don Brown was the head man when the Minutemen reached the 2006 FCS title game), but changed zippo from '21, except for the 1990s-era logo seeing playing time on the maroon helmet for the first time.
