College football is back and, as usual, a ton of teams will have changes to their uniforms.

The changes range from minor tweaks to full uniform makeovers as teams seek new excitement on the field.

Here is a rundown of the changes we have seen so far for the FBS schools, with a lot of assistance from the invaluable Uni-Watch and Chris Creamer’s Sportslogos.net.


150 years of college football — All schools will be wearing a “150” patch on their jerseys this year to celebrate 150 seasons of college football. You can see it here on the Iowa uniform, although many teams will have it on the other side of the chest.

Arkansas — The Razorbacks have simplified their uniforms. A logo has replaced the stripes on the shoulders, and the swoosh-like stripe on the pants is now a more traditional double-stripe. The wordmark across the chest also appears to be bigger.

Oregon — The Ducks have made some small changes. Believe it or not, the numbers appear to be smaller this season. They also have a faux-mesh pattern. The Nike swoosh is now on the collar, and they have introduced a forest-green uniform. Also, the two white uniforms on the upper-left are the same and are “color-changing,” presumably depending on the lighting.

Central Michigan — Small change for the Chippewas who have changed the font on their jersey wordmark to match their logo. The Adidas logo has also shifted from the center to the side. The yellow/gold might even be lighter, but that could be the lighting.
