I just don't want to see all black uniforms ever again so much bad luck just like our plain all whites but I liked the all white chrome uniforms we had and my favorite were the all red unis in 2012.
They mean a literal US flag, not the Stars and Stripes.Not to mention it goes against US Code for respecting the flag

(j) No part of the flag should ever be used as a costume or athletic uniform. However, a flag patch may be affixed to the uniform of military personnel, firemen, policemen, and members of patriotic organizations.

Also, those NW jerseys are absolutely hideous.
We wore black jerseys and white pants with black stripes when UCLA whooped us in 2013 as well. I just hate those two alt uniforms where black is the dominant color. I prefer red being the dominant color like the 2012 alternates or the red and chrome we wore versus Illinois with the matte red/black helmets.
I guess if you want argue that a white t-shirt is just cut out of a really big flag you could.How do you define "literal US flag" ?
"No part of the flag should ever be used as a costume or athletic uniform. However, a flag patch may be affixed to the uniform of military personnel, firemen, policemen, and members of patriotic organizations."
To make the above uniform they could, and basically are, cutting stars out a flag and cutting stripes out of a flag and placing them over the shoulder pads.
I don't really care if people wanna wear American flag shirts. Just sayin'

Honestly though, I don’t really care, that’s just how I understand it. I think a lot of ‘flag laws’ are dumb and taken too seriously.
I’m trying to trick the terrorists.
In all seriousness, it’s probably because my 4-H group did song contest with a patriotic theme 2 years in a row when I was 9 and 10. There’s only so many times you can sing “You’re a Grand Old Flag” while wearing flag-print shorts and neon-colored top hats covered in glitter before you lose the will to live.
