Return of the Orange Helmets vs. Vandy

[AllVolInGA10]

Heard rumblings of the return of the orange helmet against Vandy.... Makes me nervous as hell given what happened the last time we wore them. Would love to cast out the USCe demons of the helmet but not sure this is the game to do it!

Spoiler alert: It wasn't the helmets vs USC East that led to defeat in 2022. The Vols got outplayed in Columbia.

Spoiler alert, part 2: It won't be the helmets vs Vanderbilt this season. The Vols have the opportunity to control the narrative. Show up in Nashville fired up and ready to play. GBO!!

We should probably do away with the stormtroopers, too, given what happened the last time we wore them.

And no more road games

Let's just go Smokey Lid, white jersey, Smokey grey pants.

Would be a great way to right the ship bc, personally, I really liked the way they looked! Would like to see what they looked like with orange pants and the white top instead of all white and the orange helmet. Just my thought.

Where have you heard the these “rumblings”?

One of my brother's best friends is a manager on the team. Been telling his Friend group all season they have circled this game as the game to do it.

Like a equipment manager or something?

 

[VOLtaism]

Plain Jane for this one, white helmet, white jersey, white pants all with orange strip. Nothing special.

I don't honestly know what type of manager. I can verify he works for the team, as I know him and have seen him at the games, but in which capacity I am not sure.

So then are we going to bar orange jerseys and white pants Considering what happened this year at Arkansas?

Yeah probably so considering we wore our home jerseys on the road at Arky.... genius

Man I can't wait until we can stop pretending things like paint color on helmets influence the outcome of the game. If y'all are spooked by the one L in orange helmets wait til you hear how many Ls we have in the white ones lol

I just don't like it. Looks weird. Power T is supposed to be orange.

Black alt helmet. Fine
Smokey alt helmet. Fine

Orange helmet?? Ugh

 

[Emperor VOLpatine]

Hope nobody on the team steps on any cracks or spills the salt shaker this week

Not spooked. Superstitious maybe. I thought they were a great look. I don't care what they wear as long as they win honestly. Just thought it was interesting when my brother told me they might be coming out.

 

[lukeneyland]

I’d like to see orange pants

 

[cherokeeeVOL]

Wear the all whites with the Power T. Keep it simple.

 

[bpalmer28]

Pretty risky, IMO. If we ever wear orange helmets again and lose a game that knocks Tennessee out of the playoffs, again, our fans will never forgive Josh Heupel. Sounds petty and maybe it is but the orange helmets were ugly and should be thrown in a dumpster

Oh yeah preference is another thing thats completely legitimate just "orange paint bad make us lose game" isn't the reason to not wear them lol
