Big South & Ohio Valley Conferences
Following the latest round of conference realignment, two FCS conferences have combined forces and will work as a single conference for the time being. The new Big South-OVC Alliance comes with a new combination logo, which one would expect to see on the team uniforms this fall.

Campbell
The Fighting Camels are moving on from the Big Sky Conference to join the Coastal Athletic Association. To coincide with the new conference home, Campbell has also revamped their branding with a wonderful new running camel primary logo. The new logo will be utilized on the team’s white and matte black helmet shells this season as well.
Citadel
The Citadel has swapped from Adidas uniforms to Under Armour, which means new uniforms. The blue colorway mimics last year’s design, with the navy and white UCLA stripes on the shoulder. The white jerseys also feature the shoulder stripes, but just with the light blue coloring. The Bulldogs also tweaked the helmets, adding the navy stripes to either side of the light blue stripe and swapping the grey facemask for a white mask.
Coastal Athletic Association
The Colonial Athletic Association will now be known as the Coastal Athletic Association. The conference’s logo will remain unchanged, however.
Delaware
New blue uniforms this year for the Blue Hens. The new tops add two yellow stripes to the shoulders, whereas the previous set had a single, rounded stripe. The new pants remove the single truncated stripe from last year’s uniforms.
Delaware State
The Hornets have revealed a new primary logo for 2023, though it has been noted to be incredibly similar to the Charlotte Hornets.
Eastern Kentucky
EKU made the jump from Adidas to Nike this offseason. The new uniforms feature two stripes on the sleeves and a collar that contrasts with the body of the jersey. It’s a more solid version of their previous uniform design. A grey-shelled helmet is added to the arsenal, what looks to be the first in program history. Eastern Kentucky has worn maroon and black helmets since 1968.

Harvard
Harvard is celebrating the 150th anniversary of the football program with a commemorative logo. The Crimson will wear the anniversary logo as a patch on the jerseys this year.
Long Island
The LIU Sharks have (finally) embraced their great nickname and logo with their new uniforms. The amazing shark logo will be featured prominently on the helmets and shoulder caps on the new Under Armour uniforms. The previous design featured the LIU wordmark on the shells and more conventional striping on the shoulders and pants.
North Alabama
The UNA Lions will sport new purple and white uniforms this season, both of which add yellow to the sleeve cuffs and collars. Both tops will feature the primary logo on the sleeves. The previous uniforms were simpler overall but did include TV numbers on the shoulders.
North Dakota
The Fighting Hawks have started wearing white facemasks on their helmets during practice, seemingly to replace the black masks on the game helmets. A silver throwback helmet design has also been leaked and circling the internet, though there is no official word from the team. UND also revealed two new logos, a stand-alone hawk head and a new initials logo.
Richmond
The Richmond Spiders equipment team has revealed the team will be wearing new red uniforms this season, though details and still photos haven’t been released as of publishing.
Southeastern Missouri State
SEMO has a new turf field for 2023, which adds red outlines to the border and replaces the Redhawks wordmarks with the SEMO logo.
Southern
The Jaguars have two new uniform sets for the 2023 season. The new light blue jerseys feature large stripes on the shoulder caps rather than the collarbone striping. The white uniforms also dump the collarbone stripes for traditional UCLA stripes.
Southern Conference

Southern Illinois

United Athletic Conference
The ASUN and WAC conferences have combined into a new football-only conference known as the United Athletic Conference. The nine-team conference will have a new logo that will don football jerseys and the turf fields the teams play on.
Weber State
The Wildcats have made ever-so-minor tweaks to the primary logo. Weber State will also be wearing new purple uniforms for 2023, with a beautiful finish on the helmet shells. The new jerseys feature white Northwestern Stripes on the shoulders and a white chest mark, whereas the outgoing uniforms were more basic and had black text on the chest.

Western Illinois
The WIU Leathernecks announced they will leave the Missouri Valley Football Conference for the Ohio Valley Conference prior to the 2024 football season, though the remaining sports will begin playing under the OVC banner this season.
William & Mary
The Tribe have made subtle tweaks to their primary W&M logo. The football team will also be sporting new Under Armour uniforms this year, that remove any decoration from the jerseys. Though the striping on the pants is better than what was worn previously.
Just have to say how much I look forward to this article every year. Appreciate all your hard work.
