Yes!

I'm assuming that's not in this game.I'm not sure how difficult it would be but the primary color should equal the jersey color.

When I edit Cam's sleeves/wristbands, I'm always conflicted as what color to choose. If I could just set the wristbands and his half sleeve to primary, he'd wear black with the black unis and white with the white unis.

Instead, as it stands, he wears black at home AND away. Just looks off.

we had that option back on the PS2...you would think they would be able to do it now 2 generations later.

You could be OCD like me and change it each week... That's what I do with a few players.

Playing with Miami, I'd choose the opposite if I could. White base layer with Aqua jerseys, and aqua base layer with white jerseys. As it is, I just go aqua all the time.

Well that's when the secondary color would come in play.

SIAP, are color rush uni's in?

I'm not an equipment guy at all. It was way low on my priority list.
But this looks pretty freakin' great!

I reccomended that to Kane, that you should even be able to just globally set undershirt colors on the uniform selection page, but he said it isn't in the game.

I'm with you, though. At the least, the game should automatically determine your sleeve colors based on the jersey you're wearing. I would prefer having direct control through the uniform screen, but this would suffice.

Another team this is a problem for is the Raiders, who wear black on black and white on white
