Blackout for Kentucky game? Halloween

[volfaninky]

Stands should be all again!!

 

[TOrange99]

I know it sounds cheesy, but I really like the idea of CheckerNeyland for this game and if you are in "white" section wear Black.

Not gonna lie--I'm "blackout" EVERY time I go to Neyland.

Black and Orange Checkered Board Stadium, All black Uniforms with black helmets!!!! LETS DO IT!!!

 

[CAVPUT]

Been hearing there could be all black units for the Kentucky game? Don't know for sure but what a great game to do it for. Think of all the crazy Halloween dress you will see in the stands. Fans dressed as Michael Myers and Jason from Friday the 13th wearing Hendon Hooker jerseys. Crazy!!! Great for TV and recruiting not to mention fun.

Nah. Go orange. Something about seeing that color messes with the UK psyche. Let's make things as uncomfortable for them as we can.

BLACK AND ORANGE CHECKER NEYLAND

 

[vanillagorilla]

I fully expect an alternate uniform for KY. I'm just not sure which one. From what I understand the big rivals, Florida, UGA, Bama will be traditional attire for the foreseeable future.

It will be a rocking good time no matter what color unis are worn for this game.

An idea I had for the dark mode uniform reveal.......

SCENE: Neyland Stadium interior, daytime, overhead shot. A man is seen standing at the 50-yard line. Drone shot tracks down, voice starts as drone camera shows the man to be Knox County Mayor Glenn Jacobs.

Glenn Jacobs (GJ): Hello. I’m Knox County Mayor, Glenn Jacobs; and I’m here inside Neyland Stadium. Admittedly, when the University first approached me to do this video, I was a bit confused as to why. I’m the mayor, I don’t have any say about football? But, like everything else I do, I promised them that I would ‘give my all for Tennessee’, so here goes.

(drone shot pans up and around the stadium as Mayor Jacobs continues to speak)

GJ: Inside this great colosseum, names like Reynolds, White, Holloway, Manning, Spiva, Cafego and Harper all heard seven maxims repeated time and again. Those seven maxims were originally the brainchild of the very same legendary coach who has his statue just outside the stadium, which carries his name. They’ve served teams from the time of Neyland until today quite well…….

(camera tracking shot as Mayor Jacobs begins a slow walk towards the end zone, voiceover continues. Each cut back to Mayor Jacobs shows him nearer the end zone/tunnel.)

GJ: One: The team that makes the fewest mistakes will win.

(insert team footage)

GJ: Two: Play for and make the breaks. When one comes your way - SCORE.

(insert footage from Akron game of Tamarion McDonald’s interception/Jalin Hyatt touchdown)

GJ: Three: If at first the game – or the breaks – go against you, don’t let up….put on more steam.

(insert team offense footage)

GJ: Four: Protect our kickers, our quarterback, our lead, and our ball game.

(insert team footage – maybe a RB throwing a block in pass protection?)

GJ: Five: Ball, oskie, cover, block, cut and slice, pursue and gang tackle for this is the WINNING EDGE

(insert team footage, gang tackling Gibbs would be good here)

GJ: Six: Press the kicking game. Here is where the breaks are made.

(insert McGrath footage from end of Bama game)

GJ: Seven: Carry the fight to our opponent and keep it there for sixty minutes.

(insert footage of team celebrating a win)

(As the last maxim is read, Mayor Jacobs should be very near the Tennessee locker room. A smile comes across his face as he reaches the doors of the locker room as he speaks again.)

GJ: Like I said, I was a bit confused when I was first approached about this. They could have asked anyone, they could have asked one of the countless alumni of this prestigious University. They could have asked any of the hundreds of former players who’ve donned the Orange and White and taken to Shields-Watkins Field. Why did they ask me? Then it dawned on me.

(He snaps his fingers and the lights go completely out, the doors to locker room are heard opening as a dim spotlight illuminates only Mayor Jacobs’ face, which now wears his legendary Kane mask)

GJ: It’s because I know a thing or two about the darkness.

(His arms raise slowly and drop, which causes orange lights in the locker room to come up (maybe with smoke??) revealing the team standing behind him in the dark mode uniforms with helmets on. “Slow Chemical” by Finger Eleven plays as the uniforms are shown. Final shot is the Power T on a solid black background.)

Smokey Greys in Athens would be okay with me. I thought we looked killer in them at LSU.

NO! Stormtrooping or nothing for Jawjaw.

When you play old school. You need to play old school.

Orange color rush or go home

Wouldn’t shock me in the least if this did happen. Danny White started endorsing all this stuff because it sells more gear. More merchandise sales = more money from licensing agreements. Dude’s brilliant.

 

[McDad]

I know all you traditionalists hate it, but any team with orange as part of their colors who are playing a night game on Halloween weekend should definitely take advantage of the opportunity to break out black and orange unis.

The black and orange checkerboard would be incredible.

Make this happen.

 

[MAD]

I’d like the whites vs UGA in Athens. Worked out well in ‘16 lol.

 

[Volhoops]

Absolutely no. That is a Kiffin thing. The smokey grays are much better

Ok, that would be cool.

I wasn’t crazy about our prior black jerseys but for a night game 2 days before Halloween you have to do it. And I love the idea of a black and orange checker. That would be awesome!

 

[Manchester Vol]

I’ll wear highlighter yellow if the AD asks me to, what little I can do to help give the team an edge , I’ll do.

What if they asked for us to wear orange and white polkadots?

Hard to imagine what the final product would be from copy. But I think this is a grand slam.

Wish this would happen as a TV intro to the game.

I only wish I could get it to someone that could make it happen. The only thing I would ask if it were used is to let me run through the T with the team and then hang out on the sidelines for the game. Thank you and @Volunteer1989 for the kind words.

Team comes out for warm-ups in orange and white..goes into lockeroom to change into black unis, this video is played before they enter the stadium thru the T, the end zones and stands are black n orange checkerboard. Players run thru T in Dark Mode.
