Week 10 of the college football season is here. The first version of the College Football Playoff rankings was revealed Tuesday, and there was plenty to talk about -- especially among the top 10. Heading into this weekend's action, teams are giving us a lot to discuss with their game-day wardrobes.
Some schools debut vibrant new threads, while others are rocking rarely seen combinations. We also have headgear that puts a modern twist on classic logos.
We highlight some of the best looks around college football this weekend:
Debuting new threads
Kent State gets a shoutout for the sweet powder blue ensemble it debuted Wednesday night against the Northern Illinois Huskies, featuring a lightning logo on the side of the helmets.

Hawaii's uniforms were designed to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the 1941 bombing of Pearl Harbor for the school's Military Night. The design also pays homage to the football team of that same year, some of whose players joined the armed forces as sentries and watchmen after the attack on Pearl Harbor. The color gray was chosen to "show reverence for all those affected," per the school's website.
Saturday we'll honor our military with these battleship gray unis, by paying respect to the 80th anniversary of Pearl Harbor and our historic team from 1941. #WinEveryDay @adidasfootball

Self-proclaimed as "Drip U," the UCF Knights also have a fresh helmet design for homecoming weekend. They went back to the "State of UCF" logo, updating the gold shade from the 1990s. It's the second time this decal has been worn this century and the fifth new helmet concept the team has had this year.
