CBB Uniforms (1988-89 to Present): 2 Seeds

After a bit of a hiatus, RBP is back with its ranking of the top 64 college basketball uniforms from the 1988-89 season to the present. For more on the process, read the introduction to the original post. The 2 seeds follow:

8) Stanford (Casey Jacobsen): Simple design with the best numbering in college basketball history.






7) Cincinnati (Kenyon Martin): You had to be a grown ass man to pull off these unis.








6) Syracuse (Carmelo Anthony):Syracuse's third entry in our list was a thing of beauty.







5) North Carolina (Rasheed Wallace):Oddly, argyle and powder blue make for quite the combination on the hardwood.

CBB Uniforms (1988-89 to Present): 3 Seeds

With this entry, RBP moves into the top 10 of its ranking of the top 64 college basketball uniforms from the 1988-89 season to the present. For more on the process, read the introduction to the original post. Now for the 3 seeds:

12) Kansas (Drew Gooden): The Jayhawks never should have dropped the circus font for the generic-looking trajan they now sport.








11) Duke (Elton Brand): Put your hatred aside, so you can admire a classic uniform design.










10) Brigham Young (Jimmer Fredette):The shorts are pretty average, but the simplicity of the jersey is perfection.







9) Arizona (Salim Stoudamire):My favorite detail is the font used for the name on the back of the jersey.
