now as far as md's uni's they are complete crap and very distracting, somthing tells me they will change, i hope these were just a one time deal. and as for no name on the back i couldn't disagree with you more. in college football the players change every year and i like having the names on the back so it's easier to identify a player. georgia did somthing even more annoying imo though by putting georgia on everyones name plate, that was even worse than the no name.

Yeah, what was weird is they kept saying 7 miles away, then changed it to 6 but would also say 6.75 or something..... Then they said the storm was continuing its path North West but that the stadium was south of the storm. Then they cut the game off. They definitely need to do something about coming up with a better way of handling it. I was watching on espn3 (its officially crunch time for the whole no cable thing) which made it even harder to figure out what was going on.
It is hard as hell to keep up with players when their names arnt on the jerseys in college, but I still prefer it.
