Have you ever seen a Rook Card? A lot of people call our color yellow even though it's not. Color blindness is common in males and Rook doesn't help.

Rook is my favorite card game. My grandfather was vicious. It was so much fun when he was on my team. Maybe even more fun when I played against him.
 
I guess it's not unprecedented. There's been black out lines of orange numerals on white jerseys before.
 
So basically the cliff notes are.

1. couldn't get any new helmets (all black etc.) cause COVID
2. equipment team customized our current helmet style for the alternate. So they painted mask and added the black stripes etc.

I dig it and it almost seems cooler knowing our own guys made the changes to switch up the helmet so it wouldn't just be the normal white ones.
 
Wasn't here Saturday, but I'm sure this was brought up.

Why do you all think Hooker was kept in (and running quite a bit) so deep into the game? That was one thing I didn't get. I figured if he stayed in they'd at least practice some passing concepts. Not a negative comment, but curious...
A) Reps - needs as many as possible
B) Didn't want or intend on playing Milton much.

My assumption.

They probably just ordered black masks and customized decals.

So is he saying UT will be the favorite by the time that games comes around? I dont understand what he means by this....so you should only wear alternate units if you're and underdog or a toss up game?
I think he is saying roll with this because we are predicted to win and it keeps our momentum going into the next game.

So basically we are trying to keep the momentum going and these uniforms will keep the players even more hyped and on target.

Giving us a better chance to get the upset against Ole Miss.
 
I know some people hate those jerseys, but I love them. Wear them in an away game next year, and if you pair it with the new white helmet with black detail, even better. Mixing old with new is cool.
I love them. I loved the Smokey Greys having the darker carbon color on the shoulder pads - mirroring this design. Not sure how many caught that connection at the time. I just wish we had an alternate of these. Would love to see them in a game in Tuscaloosa down the road.
 
Yo I didn’t think about it but how many recruits do we have coming for this game?

An SEC game at home that we are predicted to win while also wearing an alternate Jersey is a heck of a message to recruits, just saying.
I havent seen a number but it seems like they loaded up on recruits for this game. Also cruising through the B Ball forums, there seems to be a few important B Ball guys as well this weekend.

See, that’s what I call smart recruiting.

Everyone pissed it’s not against Ole Miss but not realizing that it’s good especially if we absolutely destroy USCe in these alternates.

Plus the atmosphere will be insane, also, I like that all the coaches are working together to recruit.
