Only at TN do we celebrate the basic away uniform. I love it!

No orange helmets, the superstitious among us will be thrilled

I just dont get all the fuss and hype over uniforms... I guess I am just old.

I will always miss the black outlines on the away jersey numerals and the black type for the jersey names

As will those of us who just simply prefer our traditional white helmet

You gotta look good when you’re taking care of business.

I don’t understand the obsession of the black outlines and black cleats some have. They stick out like a sore thumb, and are just not aesthetically pleasing compared to the no outline and the orange/white cleats.

Weren't the black outlines around the numbers introduced to make it easier for the broadcasters calling the games to read them? That's my recollection. Of course, that was before the days of HD TV. I don't miss the black outlines at all. The White unis are clean. The thing I don't like is how the pants have turned into bicycle shorts.

that’s part of the reason i like em. Adds some contrast which i like. Makes the orange numbers pop more and easier to see. Im sure its also why they wear the black outlines/names in practice. Biggest reason is prob nostalgia honestly. Thats what i grew up seeing them wear. These days they wear some hideous alternate jersey so often im just happy to see them wear traditional orange and white however it comes.

It doesn't make the orange pop. The black pops because it clashes with the rest of the uniform. It was a practical choice, back in the day. But it stopped serving a purpose 20 years ago when HD became the standard. It looks bush league now. I grew up with the black outline/cleats too. It was always an eyesore that we tolerated.

I'm an old coot, but uniform color has never been an issue for me. Whatever the young men putting in the blood, sweat, and tears want, it's fine by me. I'm more concern that they ought to be in game time frame of mind.

This should be the throwback if we ever actually do one like everyone else does .
