FAT STRIPE!!!

 

[WA_Vol]

I want the fat stripe back

I agree. Nice pic. I like that uniform color scheme, A LOT BETTER then all white. Big Orange letters looks pretty good on white shirts with orange pants.

From the spring game.

The only problem I have with white jerseys and orange pants is the black that's in the away jersey. Those black letters and black trim around the numbers would clash with the orange pants. On a side note, I've always liked the all orange look. Yeah.......I know we almost lost to Memphis the last lime it was worn, but give me a break. That's too much superstition.

I think the all orange looked better when the uniforms were a normal cotton, instead of the "shiny" thread. And they looked better with grey facemasks, too. Like in the early 1980's.

Hate to say it, but I think uniforms have regressed instead of progressed.

You can tell it's the offseason, eh? Who gives a crap what those boneheads think?

Whoever pointed out the Alabama comment: good call. I was thinking the same thing -- seems to me that the number on the helmet marks "individuality," not "team."

 

[ttrogvol]

bring back the orange pants and lets throw in a little orange on orange action for special occasions!! :rock:

 

[MyBloodRunnethOrange]

I think that the younger people like the all white and the older crowd likes the orange pants / white jersey. Well, most anyway.

It would be interesting to see the age differences versus the preference in uniforms.

I'm 37, and I prefer the white jersey/orange pants.

I wouldn't mind the all orange maybe once a year or so, but no more than that.

 

[MyBloodRunnethOrange]

Something else I think would be cool is a metalic orange helmet with a white power T.

Whoa, now. This isn't NASCAR we're talking about.

For those who don't like the black lining on the numbers of the white jerseys... If memory serves me correctly, wasn't Tennessee forced to outline the numbers on the away jerseys, because they were too hard to see?

Whoa, now. This isn't NASCAR we're talking about.

Agreed. That would suck. Leave the helmets. I like them exactly as they are.

I agree with that... the all orange looks better that way than with the neon orange.

I don't know if they were forced to or not, but they did it for tv, to make it easier to make out the numbers, and they are alot easier to read now.

 

[Jasongivm6]

I think our uniforms look the best when we have a good football team. :aggressive:

 

[MyBloodRunnethOrange]

Whoa, now. This isn't NASCAR we're talking about.

Just my opinion, but I think orange helmets would be cool.

Well then . . . let's get rid of that annoying black outline on the numbers.

I'm all for it :rock:
