Texas is probably a year away from declaring knickers a year away from being obsolete! Seriously, I think this year, knickers are default and black pants optional, in 2012, it will be the other way around, and in 2013-4, knickers will be gone.
Thank God!!
As crews wear the lighter weight version this year and realize they are no hotter than knickers AND they don't have to buy 2 pair of new socks every year (not to mention spray and wash for the knickers), even the most ardent knickers supporters will admit defeat. I do suggest HS football going to the wider 2" stripe, though. Looks better with the black pants. 1" still looks fine in hoops.
