Twitter Reactions to Michigan State Football’s New Alternate Uniforms

Michigan State Football kicked off their annual Spring game with a bang this morning, debuting a new alternate jersey from Nike. Twitter was… not kind in their response to the new colorway:

These new Michigan State alternate uniforms sure are something. pic.twitter.com/BjDdXL1CFG

Michigan State: We’d like alternative uniforms.

Nike: Cool. You can look like clearance Oregon or we can just add a bunch of gray to your usual uniforms. What’ll it be?

Literally no one asked for this

Then again, some fans enjoy the new look. I will say that I originally did not care for the design, but it has since grown on me. I think that, on the field, these could look pretty sweet. I still reject neon green as a primary MSU color but I can live with these.

I’ll say what no one else is willing to.

These are nice. https://t.co/4ZcQXg9IMF
