Pac-12 uniform watch: UCLA uncages bears on gloves, cleats
While a number of teams will give us a more traditional look in Week 2 of the 2015 college football season, the UCLA Bruins are doing anything but that. They will wear an "Uncaged" alternate look. Also around the Pac-12, Arizona State goes traditional in adidas gear for the first time, Utah wears black matte helmets and more.
This is aggressive. The Bruins will be rocking white jerseys and pants along with gold tops, but the real thrill this week against UNLV comes in the other essentials. Adidas has tagged UCLA's cleats, gloves and undershirts with an "Uncaged" bear. It's fierce, awesome and really could lend to a fun game of bear puns.

Against Michigan State, the Ducks will debut an all-white look with a "combat duck" decal on the galaxy white helmets. It's not a clean white look -- the helmets have a speckling of gray to add texture.

Arizona State debuted as an adidas school wearing a special "Desert Ice" alternate last week, but the Sun Devils get more traditional this Saturday while hosting Cal Poly. They'll roll out of the tunnel with gold helmets and pants to go with maroon jerseys. Nonetheless, it's the first time we get a peek at ASU's adidas uniforms they'll be sticking with for awhile.

Utah wore their red jerseys and pants in a Friday win against Utah State, but the kicker in the get-up was on top of the Utes' heads. They went with matte black helmets with an oversized "U." On the back, Utah honored the victims of the September 11 attacks with special helmet stickers.
