Louisville unveils new grey alternate uniforms for Florida State game (Photos)
In the latest uniform from Adidas, Louisville announced that it will wear a new “ShowTime” alternate look when Florida State travels to Papa John’s Cardinal Stadium for an ACC contest on October 30.
Per a release, the uniform features “camo accents and a chrome red Cardinals logo.” Additionally, the team will be outfitted with a compression “base layer” with an Ole English “L” logo.
Here’s what it will look like:
It’s certainly a unique look, that’s for sure. The helmet and cleats appear to show some sort of subtle grey camouflage, which seems to be fashionable these days.
Bobby Petrino is clearly more lax about uniforms compared to former UL coach Charlie Strong, who is now at Texas. Strong would not even let the Cardinals wear the often-teased all-black uniforms. When Petrino was (re)introduced as head coach in January, he brought out linebacker Lorenzo Mauldin in the black uniform when he met with the team. Those all-black uniforms were then worn in the team’s season-opening win over Miami on September 1.
Petrino’s team still has a ways to go before the game against the Seminoles, however. The Cardinals, now 3-1 after beating FIU, have to play Wake Forest, Syracuse, Clemson and North Carolina State before the much-anticipated matchup with the Seminoles.
