re: Why does Alabama always wear throwback uniforms?

Go ahead, ask Alabama fans if they want to see the Crimson Tide wear chrome helmets and flashy jerseys. They’ll look at you like you have two heads. The Crimson Tide have college football’s most iconic uniforms, and it’s pretty easy to see why. No team’s combination is as simple-yet-beautiful – white pants with either a crimson or white jersey, and a simple crimson helmet that feature a player’s number. While many other schools have toyed around with alternate jerseys, or gone with a modern spin on their uniforms, the Crimson Tide have kept their kits virtually the same through the years. Their uniforms are as much a part of Alabama’s rich football tradition as on-field success, and we would be shocked if they go through any major changes in the near future. Roll Tide. No. 1, yet again.
