Question about Forrest Gump

I'm watching Forrest Gump and I just saw the scene where he is playing for Bama and runs the entire field on the kick off. Is that supposed to be Tennessee he's playing? I just noticed the team he's playing is like an orange/yellow color but it never says. I can't find it on Google anywhere.

LOL I never noticed that before. I'm watching it, too. Even though I own it on DVD, I still watch it whenever it's on TV.

Not a true fan, IMO.

Yea, he owned us like Hershel Walker did.

Sorry. I usually turn away during that scene, because I can't stand to see Bama win a game, even if it's fictional, like most of their championships.

If you freeze the above clip just right, you can tell that the opposite team has plain white helmets and yellow pants with black stripes.

If they were trying to make that look like Tennessee, they did a piss poor job.
