Now that’s a good-looking uniform.
The throwback set comes on the 25th anniversary of Under Armour and will be replete with some snazzy red helmets and red pants. The throwback will also feature elements to represent the future.

During the original run in the uniforms, Maryland captured three consecutive ACC titles from 1983-1985.
