Big Ten Uniform Rankings – Where does Penn State Football stand?
7. Iowa
Iowa has a good classic look, with a very good color scheme, one they took from the Pittsburgh Steelers because Haden Fry wanted the team to look like “winners.”
The black and gold fit Iowa perfectly, as they are consistently a hard nosed, blue collar team uder head coach Kirk Ferentz. I like the Hawkeye logo the helmet features as well, it is distinct to Iowa.
The big shoulder sleeve stripes is a bit of a turnoff for me, and getting rid of those would be a way to differ from the Steelers a bit, and could be a simple addition by subtraction for the Hawkeyes uniform.
They broke out the all yellow throwback uni’s against Penn State Football in 2019 at home, and those were, in a word, troubling.
