CONFIRMED: Tennessee IS wearing their new Smokey Grey’s Week 1 vs. Chattanooga

[Special Ed]

Because I don't have any.

 

[Voljayton]

I'm so glad football is back, they could wear purple for all I care. I just want to watch 'em whoop butt.

 

[Sivad]

Smoke UTC in the smokey grays! If they win by fiddy, is anyone gonna care what they wore?

I won’t

 

[VolInDayton]

They are the state pride uniforms and we are playing a instate school

 

[TheVolsFrog]

Not really but it kind of doesn’t have any tradition

Vols about to start a new tradition.
Alt uni's
In competition for the top 5*'s
Playing in the CFP regularly
GBO

 

[Brave Volunteer]

I may be alone in this but I absolutely H A T E D those uniforms. Thought they belonged more on an Arena football league team.

How about this one??

 

[UTvolz9808]

It’s a in state game. New tristar logo and state flag stripe we have already beat vandy this year lol so might as well wear them against Chattanooga

 

[Mccage]

Just my opinion

Did you approach the team and make them aware of your disapproval?

 

[Mccage]

Completely reasonable and valid point, too bad some on here won't see it that way (FWIW, I completely agree with this).

When Hooker’s men swept the Northern slopes of Lookout Mountain the clouds were so thick their uniforms looked Smokey grey!

 

[BDP!]

Would rather wear them vs UTC than vs one of our traditional opponents

I recall when the deal was announced it was for 3 years. Could it be were just trying to hurry and get it over with? If it was up to me we would wear orange and white at home and storm troopers away. Throw in dark mode one game and we’re good.

I like the uniforms but in my opinion they should just wear classic for opening day. Again just my opinion, not a big deal

If the weather's anything like it has been this week, it won't be too bad. It has been surprisingly mild this week.

Damn I hope so. I feel for those players. I've worked in that heat and 90 degrees with no shade will send you inside pretty quick.

Totally agree. Why wear special unis for Chatt?

I know right

 

[BreatheUT]

I think OPENING DAY, should ALWAYS be in Traditional PMS 151 and White...but, that's just me...

I'm glad I'm not the only one. Starting the season without wearing our traditional colors is just wrong.

[VFL9798]

STUPID with Orange & White Checkered Stadium...

I guess you don’t remember 2016, huh?

 

[Tin Man]

That tears it. I’m wearing my gray slacks and gray shirt during the game, and I’m drinking from my Smokey tumbler.

 

[TAF]

I guess you don’t remember 2016, huh?

I DO...it looked STUPID!

 

[Lekvolrrah]

Good! We can get it over with early in a forgettable game against a forgettable opponent! Those uniforms are made for radio!

 

[FBtime]

How about this one??

Love those!

So that's GRAY. One shade from Black. And the Basevols had an amazing GRAY . I don't get it. Who the hell is in charge?

 

[WillisWG]

The real reason for the Smokey Grey uniforms.....get'em while they're hot
