Davis Wade Stadium 100th Anniversary Uniforms

Last week, Adidas unveiled special uniforms for the 100th Anniversary of Davis Wade Stadium.  To be worn in the season opener vs. Southern Miss, the uniforms are inspired by the late 1990's, early 2000's uniforms.  The new unis are on the left, and the 90s unis that inspired them are on the right.


Here is the 2D mockup of the special unis-

2013 Season Reveiw

With the win in the Egg Bowl, the Bulldogs finished the season 6-6 and will play against Rice in the 55th AutoZone Liberty Bowl.  Tyler Russell and Nickoe Whitley have had surgery and will not play in the game.  However, you can expect Dak Prescott and Taveze Calhoun to take care of buisness.



Now, to the uniforms.  The most used combo was Shiny Maroon/ Maroon/ White.  It was worn 4 times, with a 2-2 record.




Worn 4 times
2-2 Record
Won vs. Alcorn State and Troy
Lost vs. LSU and Alabama




The maroon version of the Snow Bowl helmet was worn twice, with the Maroon jersey and White pants both times.




Worn 2 times
1-1 Record
Won vs. Kentucky
Lost vs. Oklahoma State




The matte helmets (my favorite helmets worn by MSU this year) were worn twice, with the White Jersey and White pants both times.




Worn 2 times
0-2 Record
Lost vs. Auburn and South Carolina





The Shiny Maroon helmet was worn twice on the road, once with the White pants and once with the Maroon pants.





Worn 1 time
1-0 Record
Won vs. Arkansas






Worn 1 time
0-1 Record
Lost vs. Texas A&M





The all-Maroon look was worn once- for homecoming.




Worn 1 time
1-0 Record
Won vs. Bowling Green





Special Adidas-designed uniforms were worn for the Egg Bowl victory over Ole Miss.




Worn 1 time
1-0 Record
Won vs. Ole Miss





So, the best home uniform to wear, winning percentage wise, is the all maroon or the Egg Bowl unis.  The best road combo to wear is Shiny Maroon/ White/ Maroon.

Not counting the Egg Bowl uniforms, 3 helmets different helmets were worn, 2 different jerseys were worn, and 2 different pants were worn.  This gives us only 18 different combinations, 19 counting the Egg Bowl uniforms.

Week 12: 2013 Egg Bowl: Ole Miss 10 Mississippi State 17 (OT)

For the third year in a row, Mississippi State will wear special adidas-designed uniforms for the Egg Bowl.  The set includes maroon jerseys and pants with gold numbers and wordmarks.  The helmet is chrome gold, fitting for the egg bowl.  I loved the helmet, but I wasn't a big fan of the jersey or pants.  If it were up to me, I'd wear the gold helmet (and undershirt, gloves, cleats) every year, but wear the normal jersey.  With the win, you best believe that the gold helmet will be back next year.
