I checked the records for the teams we played in black unis:
2010 Wake Forest   W, 68-24 (3-9)
2011Â UCLAÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â W, 45-19 (6-8)
2012 Duke        W, 50-13 (6-7)
2012Â UCLAÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â Â W, 27-24 (conference championship game) (9-5)
2013 Washington   W, 31-28 (9-4)
2014 Washington St. W, 34-17 (3-9)
2015Â U*S*CÂ Â Â Â Â Â Â W, 41-22 (conference championship game) (8-6)
3 out of 7 have winning records. Pretty mediocre overall, if you ask me. If the black unis give them the extra pep, why not save them for the toughest opponents?
I don't have a problem with wearing them once a year, I just wouldn't put any stock in the idea that it's an important weapon for winning games. But who knows, in 2 of the 3 games games played against teams with winning records, we only won by 3 points.
