Carrier Classic Uniforms For North Carolina & Michigan State

This Friday’s Carrier Classic is more than just two basketball teams coming together to play on the flight deck of the USS Carl Vinson. It’s three teams – North Carolina, Michigan State and the U.S. Navy – getting together to celebrate Veterans Day and all those who have put their lives on the line for our country. So to celebrate the game, the Tar Heels and Spartans will wear specially-designed camouflage versions of their Nike Hyper Elite uniforms. Check ‘em out:

As you can see, no player names will appear on the back of the jerseys. Instead, “U.S.A.” will replace each player’s last name above the uniform number.

What do you think?

    kinda stupid that they put Carolina in the away blue with the camoflauge when Mich State has green away uni’s and would look much better in green Camo’s.

    But very cool nonetheless.
    I can’t wait for this game. It will be the true start of the college basketball season.
    I predict that it’ll be a close game and there is a chance UNC may lose this one because they tend to start slow, but i don’t think Mich State has the dogs to stay with UNC in the long run.
    UNC wins this one 76-70.

    or it could be a blow out for UNC lol.

    even as a tar heels fan I have to say that these are some of the ugliest jerseys I have EVER seen. Are they going to be wearing orange hunter hats and slinging rifles over their shoulders?
