Jinx of the Orange Helmets?

[knox73]

Those helmets may have created a situation that confused the Vols players.

Should they be worn next week vs. Vandy to try to break this curse?

 

[Ernest T. Vol]

Nah, it's not the helmet BUT ready to move back to white. Didn't look like Tennessee.

 

[Vol865]

None of these "curses" exist. It's all self-imposed. Not a fan of the helmets though.

 

[VolInDayton]

I don't think we should see those helmets ever again. They looked good in pictures, but I didn't like how it looked during the game.

I agree.
And while I don’t believe the helmets had anything to do with the loss, I wouldn’t be opposed to auctioning off every single one of those orange helmets to charity……..

 

[Tenacjim]

Curse of the sh!tty defense is more likely…

almost as ugly as the UT secondary.

 

[Eastknox865]

Surely you're bored and just didn't have anything else to say or do.

 

[DB1995]

I thought they were cool when announced, but thought we just looked like Clemson on the field

No helmet could cause that disaster. Than being said, not a fan of them.

 

[feathersax]

Those Clemon

Those ugly Clemson look-alike wretched helmets need to be buried alongside the Orange shoes. Never again.

 

[ZZ13]

I don’t know about a curse. I will say I am one of the few here that think they look awful. So associating them with a curse is ok with me if it means they’ll never get worn again because of that.

 

[MEDVOL]

I thought they looked sweet, but if thats how its gonna be when we wear them then throw them in the river.

 

[SpookyAction]

I was not impressed looking at them on tv.

 

[Tnphil]

Of course a uniform has nothing to do with winning or losing....That being said as far as I'm concerned they can throw them in the river on top of our goal post.

 

[Nbvol]

I think there should be a scientific experiment against Vandy. Defense wears the orange and offense wears the white. If we beat Vandy 3-0 we can use the orange ones again. If we lose 101-100 we throw the damn things in the river with the goalposts.

 

[Megatron88]

More like the curse of a non existent defense.

Jinx of the Orange Helmets?

Finally, a theory with a sound foundation that makes some sense.

 

[Volanooga2521]

We looked like Clemson.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

I think they looked fine. If uniforms cause curses then I guess we can't wear anything. After all we lost to Georgia St. in the traditional uniforms, so I guess we shouldn't wear those either.

 

[top5vols]

Throw them in the river with the goalposts.

 

[Elhanan]

Lol, no the helmets look great.

The team looked terrible.

Same. I will forever associate those helmets with that horrible performance and the sinking feeling I had watching our post season dreams go down the drain.

Before my time of really watching (‘88 Bama or Wash St) they wore solid orange cleats……and got slaughtered. I always heard they shipped those suckers off after that game.
