I like the unis. I think they make the orange much more bearable. Thought Tennessee was gonna wear these for Oregon?

This was the product of players lobbying for it. They even had a hand in the design. A lot of it has to do with showing players that you're listening, especially after all ours have been through and yet another HC. I prefer our orange but this one has grown on me and I understand the reasons behind finally agreeing to do it. Apparently players had asked for years and been ignored.


If all that is true then I definitely don't have a problem with the uni's. Cool that the players had a hand in it.

I honestly don't think they look bad, especially for a one-off game uni.

There's 17 got damn colors listed on that website. And regardless of what all's on the "palette", they still look incredibly out of place. A gray uni doesn't "feel" like tennessee, nor did your black one.

someone's jimmies are rustled..."Primarily, White and Smokey should always be used to underscore the boldness of UT Orange, invoking a sense of the pairing of our institution’s vibrant momentum and respect for tradition."

Besides ya'lls unis in the Boise game a couple years ago were hideous

Why? Because I said a gray uniform doesn't "feel" like UT? Ask anyone what colors they think of when they think tennessee football and I guarantee you gray won't immediately come to mind.

Have I ever said otherwise? They were atrocious. However, they were red, which is our primary home uniform color.

There is a rumor going around Knoxville that they're going to bust out different helmets at gametime. I agree that it seems a little out of place, so hopefully this turns out to be true

I know they are the same, but the middle two pictures look like a blue color, and not the right blue.
