2 of 3

LUBBOCK, TX – FEBRUARY 13: Manu Lecomte #20 of the Baylor Bears goes to the basket during the game against the Texas Tech Red Raiders on February 13, 2017 at United Supermarkets Arena in Lubbock, Texas. Texas Tech defeated Baylor 84-78. (Photo by John Weast/Getty Images) /

20. Baylor’s black

Baylor’s all-neon jerseys might be the worst in the sport, but having that neon serve as a secondary color on their black uniforms look much, much better – and are much easier for your TV to handle.

19. Oregon’s black

Like Baylor’s Oregon’s black-and-bright-yellow uniforms pop and are appealing to the eye. But they get the edge over Baylor because of the wings on their shorts.

ATLANTA, GA – MARCH 22: Dean Wade #32 of the Kansas State Wildcats is defended by Sacha Killeya-Jones #1 of the Kentucky Wildcats in the first half during the 2018 NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament South Regional at Philips Arena on March 22, 2018 in Atlanta, Georgia.

18. Kansas State’s purple

The “K-State” across the chest is a cool statement that really sets Kansas State’s uniforms apart, and it very well with the right combination of purple and black.

AMES, IA – FEBRUARY 10: Lindell Wigginton #5 of the Iowa State Cyclones points to the crowd after scoring a three point shot in the second half of play against the Oklahoma Sooners at Hilton Coliseum on February 10, 2018 in Ames, Iowa.

17. Iowa State’s white

Crisp, white uniforms with perfect red trim and a nice dash of yellow across the chest. Yet, these uniforms are made by the red stripes that create the shape of a cyclone down the side of the uniform.

SAN ANTONIO, TX – MARCH 31: Moritz Wagner #13 and Jaaron Simmons #5 of the Michigan Wolverines discuss the play against the Loyola Ramblers in the first half during the 2018 NCAA Men’s Final Four Semifinal at the Alamodome on March 31, 2018 in San Antonio, Texas.

16. Michigan’s maize

Another iconic uniform, the colors work extremely well together and are enhanced by the trim. Just a great look all the way around.

LAS VEGAS, NV – MARCH 05: Zach Norvell Jr. #23 of the Gonzaga Bulldogs reacts after hitting a 3-pointer against the San Francisco Dons during a semifinal game of the West Coast Conference basketball tournament at the Orleans Arena on March 5, 2018 in Las Vegas, Nevada.

15. Gonzaga’s white

Many are bigger fans of Gonzaga’s black “Zags” uniforms, but I’m not a fan of that awkward combination of black and blue. On the flip side, these white uniforms pop with the red and blue stripes. The font – blue letters with the red stripe in the middle – also adds a nice, distinctive touch.

WICHITA, KS – MARCH 15: Myles Cale #22 and Myles Powell #13 of the Seton Hall Pirates celebrate after beating the North Carolina State Wolfpack 94-83 during the first round of the 2018 NCAA Tournament at INTRUST Arena on March 15, 2018 in Wichita, Kansas. (Photo by Jamie Squire/Getty Images) /

14. Seton Hall’s white

These are simple yet effective. The same blue-and-white striped trim around both the collar and shorts creates continuity throughout the uniform, which is perfectly tied together by the cursive writing.

CINCINNATI, OH – NOVEMBER 28: Kaiser Gates #22 and J.P. Macura #55 of the Xavier Musketeers celebrate against the Baylor Bears in the first half of a game at Cintas Center on November 28, 2017 in Cincinnati, Ohio. Xavier won 76-63. (Photo by Joe Robbins/Getty Images) /

13. Xavier’s dark gray

This is a color that almost looks like it shines, and the white name/numbers only adds to this sleek look. Plus, the X on the shorts is a great touch for the school affectionately known as X.

LAWRENCE, KS – FEBRUARY 26: Clay Young #21, Mitch Lightfoot #44 and Devonte’ Graham of the Kansas Jayhawks celebrate with the Big 12 Conference Trophy after their 80-70 win over the Texas Longhorns at Allen Fieldhouse on February 26, 2018 in Lawrence, Kansas. The title give the Kansas Jayhawks their 14 consecutive Big 12 Conference titles. (Photo by Ed Zurga/Getty Images) /

12. Kansas’ red

MAKE THESE MORE COMMON KANSAS! The Jayhawks wore red on senior night this past season and – maybe it was just the shakeup from the traditional blue they wear – but these look so crisp with the blue accent.

LUBBOCK, TX – JANUARY 31: Keenan Evans #12 of the Texas Tech Red Raiders watches his foul shot bounce off the rim late in the game against the Texas Longhorns on January 31, 2018 at United Supermarket Arena in Lubbock, Texas. Texas Tech defeated Texas 73-71 in overtime. (Photo by John Weast/Getty Images)UARY 31: Keenan Evans /

11. Texas Tech’s gray

Speaking of sleek uniforms, these are phenomenal. The white name/numbers pop on the gray with the red borders and the two-toned lines around the collar and shorts are a Texas Tech staple.
