This is a list of the coolest uniforms in college football, not the best uniforms. It does not include Michigan, Notre Dame, Penn State, Alabama, and the other “classic” uniforms. This list also includes only the Power 4 conference teams, otherwise, it might have included Boise State, Tulane, and others. It is understood that many schools have had several logos and uniform combinations in the past and continue to do so. Let’s get started….

10. Arizona Wildcats

Colors: Cardinal and Navy

Arizona Wildcats traditionally wear white helmets with a cardinal and navy “A”, blue jerseys with white lettering, and white pants with cardinal and navy stripes for home games. The road jerseys are white with navy lettering and cardinal and navy stripes. They will often wear navy pants. Because of the desert heat, the Wildcats will wear road whites for many early home games.

9. North Carolina State Wolfpack

They are known to wear any combination of the colors for a game.
