Lots of teams rewore leos this week, so there weren’t many to judge. However, the majority of the non-reworn leos were brand new! Take a look at what we thought of the various leotards form this week and let us know what you thought of them as well in the comments or on Twitter! You can also let us know if we missed any of your favorites from this weekend, and we might just judge them next week!

Oklahoma
Score: 9.15 Casey Design: 2.8/3 Fabric/Sparkle: 1.9/2 School Spirit: 1.7/2 Overall Appearance: 2.8/3 Total: 9.2/10 I think this may be my favorite OU leo? The white on top is great and despite the continued rhinestone boob obsession this one works. Love the accents on the arm as well. Great work. Elizabeth Looooove this OU leo. The sweetheart neckline with the rhinestones sort of mirroring it is divine. The little peephole in the back is neat and the OU adds a nice touch. Overall it’s lovely. So pretty. |

Michigan
Score: 9.1 Casey Design: 2.6/3 Fabric/Sparkle: 1.8/2 School Spirit: 1.8/2 Overall Appearance: 2.8/3 Total: 9.0/10 I really like this, I just wish those silver strappy things didn’t go over the gold band. Other than that… perfect. Elizabeth I strangely love this leo? The silver is nice and the yellow in rhinestones isn’t overbearing. I like the V-design on the arms as well and how it mirrors the neckline. The back and block M is nice too. The only thing I would change is how the silver has faux-straps. If it stopped and didn’t cross the yellow it would be so great. Now it looks like they have a tank top on over their leo. |

Nebraska
Score: 8.85 Casey Design: 2.8/3 Fabric/Sparkle: 1.9/2 School Spirit: 1.6/2 Overall Appearance: 2.9/3 Total: 9.2/10 I love this one from Nebraska. It looks very dark and mysterious in a good way. The red black and dark silver all work together perfectly. The back straps give me life. Elizabeth I’m in love with the aluminium foil-shine of the silver fabric. I also love the double-cross cutout on the back. This leo is so weird. It’s great. The red and black are just enough too and the rhinestones not too overpowering ESPECIALLY since the silver is so shiny. |

Utah
Score: 8.45 Casey Design: 2.4/3 Fabric/Sparkle: 1.8/2 School Spirit: 1.9/2 Overall Appearance: 2.5/3 Total: 8.6/10 The simple leo highlights the ginormous bedazzled school logo. I love all things blinged, so I approve. It also probably looks amazing in the Huntsman Center. Elizabeth A+ for school spirit here. I think even more so than the block-U-covered one it has. The large emblem works on the side. I think it would have been ugle had it been in the middle or something. The red neckline is also great as it keeps it from being black black black. |

Florida
Score: 8.05 Casey Design: 2.8/3 Fabric/Sparkle: 1.8/2 School Spirit: 1.6/2 Overall Appearance: 2.7/3 Total: 8.9/10 This deep V is very lovely. Very grown up and not “level 5 compulsories” like some teams tend to lean towards. The silver gradient into the blue is awesome. Elizabeth I liked this. But then someone pointed ot it looks like a tuxedo and I don’t like it as much. I love the rhinestoned, sparkly silver V and the blue peeking out. I also like the small amount of sparkle on the arms. But the black, for some reason, doesn’t look amazing with it? I can’t think of what I would change though. |

Georgia
Score: 7.95 Casey Design: 1.8/3 Fabric/Sparkle: 1.7/2 School Spirit: 1.7/2 Overall Appearance: 2/3 Total: 7.2/10 I don’t really like how this looks like they have on a bandeau with Georgia bedazzled across their chest. The cut and silhouette are great. Just wish the bandeau thing didn’t stand out so much. Elizabeth I like how this is sort of throwback-y. And also the small cutout in the back. It’s similar to that leo Cal has where it’s kind of a cutout/kind of a thick strap over the back. The shiny white material is super nice and the mesh sleeves work with the sparkles and black bottom. The small amount of red and super G on the back wraps it all together. |

LSU
Score: 7.05 Casey Design: 2/3 Fabric/Sparkle: 1.6/2 School Spirit: 1.5/2 Overall Appearance: 2.1/3 Total: 7.2/10 This is a good purple! Wish there was some more design elements, maybe on the sleeve or neck? Elizabeth I like how the rhinestone design pops with the goldish yellow. It’s also cool how it’s like of like tiger stripes. The purple color is also nice. The leo as a whole though is just slightly boring to me. It needs something more. I don’t know what but something. |

UCLA
Score: 6.25 Casey Design: 2.2/3 Fabric/Sparkle: 1.6/2 School Spirit: 1.2/2 Overall Appearance: 2/3 Total: 7.0/10 I like it when they use the same color lace as the leo. Sometimes when it is such a contrast I really don’t enjoy the look. The navy is nice just a bit boring on the body, but with the lace top, less is more. I also like the rhinestoned neckline over the lace. Very unique. Elizabeth I’ll start with what I like (there’s not much). The sweetheart neckline is nice and the rhinstones on the chest are good too. The lace patter is too big and there’s a huge seam right down the middle of their backs. not cute. I do like how the cuffs are solid, though. |

Arizona
Score: 5.6 Casey Design: 2/3 Fabric/Sparkle: 1.2/2 School Spirit: 1.2/2 Overall Appearance: 1.8/3 Total: 5.2/10 It’s fine. Nothing exciting though. With the Arizona was bigger and more noticeable. Elizabeth I never love leos that are all one color. So this all red once, while nice, isn’t fabulous. I do like the touch of silver and the cursive Arizona on the chest, though. |

Denver
Score: 5.55 Casey Design: 1.8/3 Fabric/Sparkle: 1.4/2 School Spirit: 1.2/2 Overall Appearance: 1.7/3 Total: 6.1/10 I like the white ribbon design. Also the asymmetry isn’t bad on the top. Just a bit too boring for me to have any real feelings. Elizabeth Meh. This leo isn’t one of my faves of Denver’s. It’s like the Pioneers either hit it out of the park or are kind of boring. There’s never really any in between. I do still like the crimson color and how it’s displayed on the arms, but besides that… |
