Rutgers' uniforms rank among the worst in the Big Ten, according to a poll conducted by the Big Ten Network.

BTN.com asked eight college football writers to rank the uniforms of the conference's football teams. The voters made their rankings based on a team's full ensemble – home, road, alternates, throwbacks, primary helmet and alternate helmets.

The Scarlet Knights ranked 13th in the 14-team conference, ahead of only Indiana. Rutgers received three last-place votes from the panel, while BTN.com's Sean Merriman ranked the Knights' uniforms as the fourth-best in the conference.

Rutgers' new uniforms have been a topic of much debate since they were introduced in 2012. The program veered away from its traditional style to a modernized look, and an NJ.com poll from last November produced a 50/50 split from readers. It's been said that recruits like the new style, while many fans have complained that it's difficult to read the numbers on the jerseys.

The Big Ten is full of programs rich in history and many of the uniforms represent a traditional – and mostly plain – style. Ohio State earned the top spot in the poll, followed by Michigan and Penn State.

Here's BTN.com's full rankings:
