Adidas colormatched the jerseys in 2010 to our "official" orange, PMS 151. Over the years, different suppliers had slowly darkened the orange as they just tried to match their product to the previous year.

What we wear now is the correct color, it had been off in the past.

Can't use the three stripes for game jerseys, the NCAA considers that a logo, and logos are limited to a single logo of a maximum 1 1/4 sq inches, the size of the logo on the front of our game jerseys.

As I've said in about three threads already, when laid next to each other in the same light, the decals and the jerseys match perfectly. When you get out onto the field with different lights/shadows, they appear slightly different.

The decals are made my a third party, not the helmet manufacturer and are also matched to PMS 151.

Oh ok, i didn't know that. Thanks for the info. We can still do a checkerboard design of some kind though. I think that would look good.

I telling you not a good idea. It may look cool but Vol fans act cool is only in the tradition. They are very stubborn.

As somebody said earlier. It could also be due to the jerseys getting wet from sweat or water can make the orange look darker.

The practice uni's look like the Colts with orange instead of blue if you ask me. Also, all orange and orange pants with white jerseys are bad.

Orange jersey, white pants.

White jersey, white pants.

Stick with it.

Agreed, I don't like white jersey/orange pants. White on white for away looks 1000X better.
