Ranking the 50 most visually-appealing college football uniforms

Arizona State’s decision to shift away from a cartoonish devil to their pitchfork design as the new primary logo has been a critical catalyst as the Sun Devils have upped their sartorial game in recent years. The beauty of embracing the pitchfork as the primary look is that it has allowed Arizona State to play with it on the helmet in various sizes, in a way that the cartoon could never translate.

And with deep maroon and eye-popping yellow as a base, the Sun Devils have mastered their retooled look and made it one of the country’s best. Regardless of the combination, it is a well-matched scheme that offers versatility and plays well with the mascot.

For instance, plenty of schools have blackout uniforms. Those looks inevitably combine black jerseys and pants with helmets that are either black as their base or feature black elements. With the fiery accents of the school colors, the Sun Devils are able to pull off the blackout look better than almost any other program at the Power Five level.

Recruits coming to Tempe know that they will more often than not be the best-dressed team on the field, even if they play in one of the best-dressed divisions in college football.
