2015 Nike concept uniforms

I'd rather see our smokey greys incorporate more white to match the helmets than give us an orange or grey helmet personally.

Just a small chance like white gloves and cleats could make the helmets match better (all white extremities)
 
Witch Doctor say.
If we can get back to contending in the East and SEC I dont care if they wear assless chaps with the Nike Swoosh spray painted on each cheek....its their team.(dont want to see but now the visual burn Witch Doctors eyes)
Go Vols!

Not a fan.

First one is too over the top and has way too much going on. Reminds me of some of the really ugly uniforms Oregon used to wear (circa 2007?) The second one is OK, except that the extra stripe makes it look Miami Hurricanes-ish. We have a distinct identity and the thought of our uniforms looking so similar to another powerhouse school doesn't sit well with me.

I really liked our Smokey Gray uniforms last year. Think these go too overboard. I'm also not a fan of messing with the helmet much.
 
I have no problem with alternates once a year. I just don't want to go all Oregon with the uniform combos.

I don't think anyone's advocating making orange and white the ALTERNATE uniform...but the bellyaching over the smokey's last year is a futile gesture...they and/or other alternates ain't going anywhere.
 
These are so awful. Thank God they're fan-created. Love the passion of our fanbase, but goodness does it result in some terrible photoshop jobs.

Now, for some actual information. I'll just leave these here and you all can decided whether you'd like to parse it or not:
-Dave Hart, a gentleman so traditional that he believes college football should be played on grass and not turf, is not about to let one of these atrocities happen
-You'll still see the Smokey Grey, but if you're expecting some crazy Oregon setup you're going to be disappointed
-We're very likely going to use Nike Mach Speed uniform kits
-Google Image Search "Alabama Mach Speed" uniform. Look at the picture. That's pretty much what we're getting, but in orange and perhaps with a few minor tweaks (state outline patch on back for example)
 
These are in no way connected to Nike. You should just say Joe Schmoe 2015 concept because that's all it is.

Uniforms will change..but racism will never change!:no:
 
The first one with the orange helmet reminds me too much of Syracuse's Orange Helmet. If the Power T was white it might be a little different but with the Grey Power T it looks hideous.

The 2nd one wouldn't be bad if the stripe on the helmet was solid orange.

I really liked the carbon fiber grey helmets with orange power T that were on here last year.
Somebody good at Photoshop put those with the current smokey grey uni's so we can see how they'd look together Please
 
OK, but go back 20 years and how many teams that have won the National Title have dicked around with the helmet? Only FSU, Ohio St. and the Gators.

Miami is another, Texas has before, LSU has as well for games..probably others if I actually dig for a few
 
Let's not turn into Oregon. Thanks in advance.

Concepts were both garbage, but as long as we keep the "traditional" (which really isn't traditional, originals weren't orange) for opener, homecoming, and one more here or there i say let her rip and let's take pride in it. Why not? All black with a orange power t... Worked for the ducks, right? So many positives could stem from adding to our uniforms, yet the only negative is some butt hurt fans. Some, not many. If we are winning, it won't matter what we're wearing. Fact.
 
Some of those teams have done an alternate helmet for a game..I know LSU and Texas has..Oklahoma has as well.

Yeah..check out OU's alternate uni's this season. I don't really care for them tbh. I'm not against alternate uniforms, just bad ones.

This may be the most intellectual way I've seen a completely opinionated (yet fact less) persuasion quote ever! Wait....John Adams, is that you?

Looks like it is their actual colors, not throwing some random colors together because some 18 year old doesn't understand history. Alternates are fine, but with the actual school colors.

Nope. And while the bottom two bullet points are educated guesses, the top two have been posted on this board previously by DeerPark and are not even slightly conjecture.
