Recently, Boise State had been told to not wear their all blue uniform set at home so it wouldn’t confuse the opposition. With the blue turf and a team wearing all blue, they believe that could be an advantage for the Broncos.

Now they are trying to make it an official rule that the all-blue monochrome look will never be worn at home.

With this rule in place, there now will be an issue for teams that wear green. Teams like Baylor, Colorado State and Oregon will also no longer be allowed to wear monochrome green at home. They too will be forced to wear some other combination so their uniforms don’t blend in with the green turf.

This seems like a fair compromise, but is it necessary? This rule really is all about Boise State. Is it really an issue if they wear monochrome blue at home? Is it that hard to watch?

Considering what Eastern Washington does, it can be an issue.

But is it hard because we’re not accustomed to a field that isn’t green? Whenever we watch teams wear green playing football, it’s normally never an issue. But when a turf is not green, than all kinds of complaints arise. It very well just could be that our eyes and mind aren’t used to a non-green field yet.

Is it the right call to make this rule? I can’t say. I don’t mind monochrome blue for Boise State at home, but I can still see that since we’re not adjusted to the field. With that, maybe this rule might be necessary for now.
