College football teams continue to get more creative -- some for the better, ?some for the worse -- with their uniforms. The first half of the 2016 season saw Oregon bring its mascot to life, a handful of throwbacks?and much more. Which new threads stood out above the rest?Pittsburgh Panthers?-- throwbacks in Week 6 win over Georgia TechThe reaction to Pitts throwbacks, which looked something like the threads Tony Dorsett wore in the mid-1970s (as well as a certain fictional team of Panthers), was so positive, it left many wondering why the Panthers dont switch to the look full time.Oregon Ducks?-- Once a Duck in Week 4 loss to ColoradoIts not often that a uniform combination makes spectators laugh audibly after turning on a game, but thats the reaction most people had when the Ducks sported orange face masks and footwear to model their web-footed mascot. Very few Oregon fans were laughing after their team lost at home.?Louisville Cardinals?-- chrome red helmets in win over Florida StateThe Cardinals debuted the sharp new helmets in their dismantling of Florida State and stuck with them until they lost at Clemson. Last weeks win over Duke came in an all-black combo, so where does Louisville go from here?LSU Tigers?-- Gridiron Gold in win over Mississippi StateRarely does a traditional team like LSU switch things up, but the Tigers did it by calling on their history with gold uniforms that look similar to the unis they wore in the 1940s, complete with the old-school Sailor Mike logo. LSU showed that blue-blood programs can wear alternates without getting too crazy.?Texas A&M Aggies?-- Junction Made in Week 5 win over South CarolinaSometimes simplicity is a positive for uniforms, and that was the case for the Aggies when they wore a throwback look that was inspired by Paul Bear Bryants days leading the program in the 1950s. Adidas took its time and paid attention to every detail.?Virginia Tech Hokies?-- Hokie Stone in Week 2 loss to TennesseeRadical alternate uniforms can look better on paper than in practice, and that was the case with Virginia Techs gray/black combo in the Battle at Bristol. The gray didnt exactly jump off the screen, but it was nice to see the Hokies take a chance on a huge stage.TCU Horned Frogs?-- Liquid Steel in loss to OklahomaIf your team is going to wear black, as several teams have lately, its better to go all the way, and thats what TCU did by introducing a new Liquid Steel helmet with an oversize Frog logo on either side.?Indiana Hoosiers?-- Candy Stripe in Week 7 loss to NebraskaThe candy-stripe pattern has more often been associated with Indianas basketball program and its signature warm-up pants. The Hoosiers deserve credit for bringing the look to the football field, but they may not have gone far enough with just the shoulder striping. Why not go all-out and extend it to the pants?Miami Hurricanes?-- Legend of the U in Week 6 loss to Florida StateMiami would like to be restored to the place in the championship conversation it held in the 1980s, so perhaps the throwback uniforms were wishful thinking.?Air Force Falcons?-- Shark Teeth in Week 2 win over Georgia StateIt goes without saying that slapping a shark on your helmet is going to get some attention, especially when it pays respect to the Air Forces aircraft. The only problem? The Falcons wore the helmets against Georgia State in front of fewer than 25,000 fans.
