The tradition continues in Orlando, but this year, it’s going interstellar. The UCF Knights have unveiled their 2025 Space Game uniforms, themed Mission IX: HyperSpace. This annual celebration of the university’s ties to space exploration takes flight on November 7, when the Knights host Houston under the lights.
This year’s theme, Mission IX: HyperSpace, draws direct inspiration from the UCF HyperSpace Center, a cutting-edge research hub created in partnership with the U.S. Air Force. The center is at the forefront of hypersonics and space propulsion technology — the science that enables air travel at speeds between Mach 6 and Mach 17, or over 13,000 mph. Led by Professor Kareem Ahmed, a team of 40 undergraduates and 25 graduate students are transforming hypersonic flight from theory into reality, redefining what’s possible in both space exploration and aerodynamic design. The new Space Game uniforms bring that same mindset to the field: fast, bold, and built for the future.
At the core of this year’s design is a commitment to storytelling through detail. The center patch draws inspiration from HADES, the High-enthalpy Altitude-simulating Dynamic Experimental System, UCF’s hypersonic wind tunnel used for testing in the Mach 10 Oblique Detonation (MXOD) program. This detail connects the team’s on-field look to real-world innovation happening in UCF’s labs. The mission patch features a delta-shaped insignia that mirrors the aerodynamic form of hypersonic vehicles capable of Mach 17 speeds. Eight Polaris stars represent UCF’s previous eight Space Game missions, while a ninth, larger star symbolizes this year’s hypersonic breakthrough — the defining theme of HyperSpace.
The uniform’s design carries that same futuristic energy throughout. The sleeves and numbers visualize the concept of HyperSpace travel, symbolizing the push to make science fiction a reality. Reflective TV numbers, a traditional hallmark of UCF’s Space uniforms, return to add depth and dimension under the bright lights. The pant stripe proudly displays UCF’s alternate moniker, “SpaceU,” connecting the football program back to the university’s heritage as an institution built for the space age.
The helmet stripe continues the high-speed motif, taking inspiration from Mach diamonds, the brilliant formations that occur during high-speed combustion. This phenomenon, often replicated in UCF’s own high-speed combustion experiments, creates a stunning visual metaphor for power, precision, and progress. Finishing the design, the back bumper carries the phrase “Citius Est Futurum” — Latin for “The Future is Faster.” This unofficial motto of the MXOD program perfectly encapsulates UCF’s mission to push beyond what’s possible and redefine the limits of human achievement.
The Florida Panthers are once again on top of the hockey world, and now, they have the hardware to prove it. The Panthers celebrated their back-to-back championships as players, coaches, and staff received their 2025 Stanley Cup Championship Rings during a private ceremony at the War Memorial Auditorium in Fort Lauderdale.
Handcrafted in 14-karat white and yellow gold and featuring over 450 diamonds and genuine rubies, the ring captures both the legacy and the grit of a team that defended its title “against overwhelming odds.”
“When designing this ring we wanted to appropriately memorialize the story of the 2024-25 Florida Panthers,” said Panthers Owner & Alternate Governor Teresa Viola. “This ring symbolizes our continued pursuit of excellence, our commitment to the community and the values embodied by our players, coaches and staff.”
The ring’s top showcases ‘PANTHERS’ in 14-karat yellow gold, sitting above two Stanley Cups that represent the team’s 2024 and 2025 titles. Surrounding these Cups are 81 diamonds and 60 rubies, symbolizing the back-to-back championships. The perimeter features the words ‘STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS’, also set in gold and adorned with an additional 145 diamonds, while another 122 diamonds and 18 princess-cut rubies complete the design.
“The 2025 ring features details that bring the back-to-back champions’ story to life,” said Chris Poitras, SVP and GM of The Champions Collective. “We are honored to present it to the Panthers organization.”
Each ring is personalized for its recipient, featuring their name and title on the left side, along with a panel shaped like the team’s primary shield logo. The right side displays ‘FLORIDA’ in yellow gold above the Leaping Cat logo, framed by two palm trees that represent the palms lining Amerant Bank Arena.
White gold palm trees wrap around the interior, leading to a prowling panther engraving on the outer edge, a sleek finishing touch that embodies the team’s fearless spirit.
Inside the ring, engravings tell the story of the Panthers’ journey:
“WE APOLOGIZE TO NO ONE,” the team’s rallying mantra, is boldly etched above the playoff series results.
The date of their championship-clinching victory — June 17, 2025 — is immortalized.
And finally, a small black rat engraving pays tribute to one of the most beloved fan traditions in hockey.
With over 450 gemstones totaling approximately 16.15 carats, the 2025 Stanley Cup ring isn’t just a symbol of victory—it’s a tribute to a team that has defined resilience, confidence, and culture in South Florida sports.

Texas Tech football is honoring a century of tradition in 2025 with a special throwback uniform celebrating the program’s 100th anniversary. The look not only nods to the Red Raiders’ historic past but also highlights key milestones in uniform design that shaped the team’s identity over the decades.
The program’s first football team took the field in 1925, when the “Tech” wordmark first appeared on the team’s uniform. Just a year later, in 1926, the now-iconic Double T made its debut, establishing a logo that would become one of the most recognizable marks in college sports.
By 1930, Texas Tech was already pushing the boundaries of uniform design by incorporating the Double T into traction stripes, a cutting-edge look for its time.
In 1935, the program introduced jersey numbers to the front of the uniform for the first time, bringing both functionality and identity to the design. Fast forward to the mid-1960s, when stripes inspired by the Masked Rider and the horse’s breast collar were added to the uniforms in 1965, further cementing a connection to Tech’s most famous tradition. Just a few years later, in 1969, helmet stars were introduced as awards, giving players a chance to showcase their individual achievements while adding another memorable layer of style.
Each detail in the 2025 throwback uniform is a nod to these defining eras, from the early wordmarks to the stripes and symbols that became staples of Texas Tech’s identity. By weaving in elements from across decades, the Red Raiders’ centennial look is a visual timeline of 100 years of grit, innovation, and football in Lubbock.
As the Red Raiders take the field in their anniversary throwbacks, the uniforms will stand as more than just a jersey; they’re a tribute to the players, coaches, and fans who built Texas Tech football into what it is today.
Wisconsin will debut a special throwback uniform on October 11, 2025, when the Badgers host Iowa for Homecoming. The look pays tribute to the program’s proud heritage, blending vintage design with modern performance technology.
The red jerseys carry a classic aesthetic, featuring bold block numbers outlined with a simple stripe. A block W and Bucky Badger logo add nods to past eras, appearing on the sleeves and the back of the uniform. To complete the look, the Badgers will sport white helmets with red facemasks, topped with the traditional block W that defined Wisconsin football in decades past.
This collaboration isn’t just about nostalgia; it’s a celebration of the history and culture that make Wisconsin Football unique. From the sound of “Jump Around” shaking Camp Randall to the program’s championship pedigree, the throwback set reminds fans and players alike of the legacy they carry every Saturday.
Come October, the Badgers won’t just be playing for a win against Iowa. They’ll be playing in a look that connects generations of Wisconsin fans to the tradition of one of college football’s most iconic programs.
The UNISWAG Uniform of the Week Countdown is back for Week 6 of college football!
Check out which teams are turning heads with their uniform combos this weekend. The official Top 10 drops monday, leading up to the reveal of the Week 6 Uniform of the Week winner.
The Notre Dame men’s and women’s basketball programs are tipping off the season with a look that’s all about home. The Fighting Irish revealed a brand-new black and gold uniform set, dubbed “The Bend”, paying tribute to the history, culture, and character of South Bend, the city that has supported the program for generations.
Every part of The Bend jersey is rooted in South Bend’s heritage. The bold “Bend” script across the chest was inspired by the iconic marquee wall outside Madison Oyster Bar downtown. The jersey numbers feature a custom font modeled after Studebaker cars, one of the city’s most historic industries. Running up the side of the shorts are lines taken directly from the South Bend city flag, symbolizing the St. Joseph River and the city’s geographic namesake. To complete the look, the South Bend flag is stitched onto the waistband, a finishing touch that ties the uniform directly back to its community.
Fans won’t have to wait long to see The Bend in person. The jerseys will make their public debut at Irish Jam presented by Under Armour on Friday, October 3, at Eddy Street Commons. The free community event begins at noon with programming, leading into the main showcase featuring both basketball teams at 6 p.m.
Finally, the new uniforms will hit the court in live action to start the season. The men’s team debuts The Bend on November 7 against Detroit Mercy, while the women’s squad follows on November 9 against Chicago State.
Arizona State hockey is skating into the new season with a fresh look that’s sure to turn heads. The Sun Devils revealed their latest uniform set, and it’s a perfect blend of school pride and hockey swagger.
The new jerseys feature a maroon base with “Arizona State” spelled proudly across the chest in gold lettering. Along the hem runs a thick gold stripe flanked by two crisp white stripes, giving the kit a traditional hockey vibe with a modern Sun Devil twist.
On the sleeves, thick gold paneling showcases the players’ numbers, ensuring visibility while tying the look together in true ASU fashion. The finishing touch might just be the most iconic, a large Sparky face stamped on the helmet, bringing the program’s beloved mascot into the spotlight every time the team hits the ice.
With this design, Arizona State has delivered a uniform that captures both tradition and attitude. It’s classic maroon and gold, but reimagined in a way that feels fresh and unmistakably Sun Devil. Fans in Tempe will have plenty to cheer for this season, and now they’ll get to do it with one of the sharpest looks in college hockey.
Washington has introduced the Honor and Support uniform, designed as a powerful tribute to those who serve past and present, both on and off the field. The Huskies will wear the look on November 15 against Purdue during the 2025 Salute to Service game.
The uniform starts with a purple jersey featuring a camo pattern, paired with bold stencil numbers on the front, back, and shoulders. A military-inspired nameplate runs across the back, tying the design directly to service traditions.
On the lower half, the team will sport gold pants with the same camo detailing. The word DAWGS climbs up the side panel, while an Honor and Support patch sits on the right hip to reinforce the theme.
Finishing off the look, an American flag patch is stitched on the right shoulder of the jersey, bringing the tribute full circle. This uniform blends Huskies pride with a meaningful nod to the armed forces, making this year’s Salute to Service game one to remember.
There’s nothing quite like facing your rival under the lights, and the Buffalo Bills are turning up the intensity with a brand-new look. The Bills will debut their “Cold Front” uniforms in Week 5 on Sunday Night Football when they host AFC East rival New England Patriots.
More than just a uniform, “Cold Front” represents Buffalo itself, a city built for the cold, defined by grit, and proud of its toughness. It’s ice in the air, resilience in the soul, and a fanbase that thrives in the elements. Simply put: it’s Buffalo, stitched into fabric..
As concepts were explored throughout 2023, one vision quickly stood out. “The clear choice was to celebrate our region’s climate, especially when it comes to later in the season,” said Aaron LaPorta, Bills Director of Design.
To create the icy, snow-covered identity, the design team made a bold move — stripping away the red. “Visually, red means warmth, and in order to create a true icy and snowy feel, it needed to be removed,” LaPorta explained. “That was a big decision for us, because we’ve never done anything like that.”
With red gone, the challenge became reimagining the Bills’ look through elevated uses of blue, white, and gray. “We don’t want to look like another team. We want to have our own identity,” LaPorta said. “So how do we achieve that?”
The result is “Cold Front,” a fresh but authentic take on Buffalo football — one that perfectly mirrors the team, the city, and the fans who embrace the cold like no other.
