9. Rutgers 

When Rutgers first joined the Big Ten they were trying to follow in Oregon’s footsteps, featuring a bunch of uniform combo’s and never wearing the same one twice.

They broke out an all black color way and silver chrome helmets, but when you go 1-11 and years without winning a conference game, you look like clowns in those kind of uniforms.

Last season the Scarlet Knights went back to a simple, clean scheme they featured in coach Greg Schiano’s first tenure as head coach. The all white road uniforms with the red lid and block R as clean as it gets.

The Rutgers on the front of the jersey works well here also due to the black trim around the lettering which makes it pop. It was smart to use black as small highlight and keep to the primary red and white school colors.
