Louisville debuted its new "Uncaged Cardinal Primeknit" uniforms for Saturday's game against Auburn.
While the helmets were garish and the jerseys flashy, the names of the players were in old English lettering.
This seemed to perplex fans, which led to an unprecedented discussion of fonts among fans during a college football game.
louisville get the backs of those jerseys done at a mall kiosk? where else do you get your name on your clothes in olde english font?
