My favorite Volunteer jersey that I own. Worn throughout the 1997 regular season and then in the Orange Bowl vs Nebraska.

wait so in the 90s a jersey was meant to be worn all season instead of just one game per jersey?

Finally, Al's jersey from the 2001 NFL season. I have it photo matched to the Kansas City game. This shirt is absolutely pounded....beaten to death. Evidence of just how brutal Al's hits were.

Here's Al wearing the jersey in the regular season. I think this was against Auburn. Notice the tear on the top of the 7. That was repaired and is plainly visible on my jersey. The Orange Bowl patch was sewn on before the game against Nebraska.

Maybe since you asked he might answer. I've asked him multiple times and he's never responded....

Sorry about that....no never frame them. It will eventually damage the jersey. Yes my entire collection is insured.

Definitely Florida.

We played Auburn away in '98 and at home in '99

Edit: and in SECCG In '97

Edit 2: could be @ UCLA now that I think about it

How so? I have several Vols bball jerseys. Was thinking about framing them.

The creases from the jersey being folded when framed...over time combined with light...easpecially from the sun....will weaken the fabric and cause yellowing along those creases.

So do you buy mannequins each time you get a new one? Cause that would be awesome

Do you just keep them folded in drawers or do you have mannequins you put them on?

That's cool. Love me some AL Wilson. I have a game worn Peyton Jersey from his Sr year. Framed not insured as not sure what the $ value it has. Any guesses? I've been curious the value. It's a home Jersey.
