Another week, another uniform

As I said last week (really only a couple days ago!) I figured that the "Rad" uniform from week 1 was a one-off. Well, The Ducks announced (via Twitter and Instagram) their uniform for this coming week against Virginia and its called "Electric Lightning" and has it's own info website here. Or even more detail here!

It reverts back to the "tweaked" numeral font of the Alamo Bowl/July press release, which makes me think that this might be a preview of the general scheme for the rest of the season. If that is even possible with the Ducks?

The color scheme is similar to past yellow/black uniforms (See last year's week 3), but updates the shoulder "wings" with an unusual photoshopped extravaganza (that will make my life hard trying to replicate that in my uni-tracker!) The helmets feature the happy/angry duck versions on opposite sides like last year)

What I find interesting is that both last year and this year, the Ducks have gone mostly black/yellow/gray in the preseason and have saved green for later in the year.
