Are we wearing white or orange for the bowl game?

[sickemsmokey10]

I think it's white but not sure, because I think Florida was the home team last year. Anyone know for sure?

Why must a team wear its away colour in a game when there is no clash in uniform colours? Is it just me or wouldnt it be cool to see UT's home orange line up against Bama's crimson, Floridas blue or Georgias red?

Also has there ever been a call for teams to have home and away coloured helmets? Id love to see a mock up "away UT helmet that was orange with a white band and a white T

Well, it's "colour" throughout much of the English-speaking world.

Fenian, where are you from? I wandered into a pub in the north side of Dublin this summer and ended up having a long chat with a couple of old-school Republican boys. I think they would have enjoyed your avatar...

I heard we were wearing the new Nike checkerboard jerseys (like our end zone)

As cool as that sounds, something tells me it would look horrible on a player.

Actually they are pretty cool. The checkerboard is only on the shoulders.

 

[HawaiiVol]

ahhhh, hadn't seen them yet. That does sound cool. Any links to pics by chance?

Nooooo, they are on the whole jersey... :dance:

 

[doozer]

none of the above.

 

[hmanvolfan]

Then why does LSU get to wear their white jerseys whether they're home or on the road? Are they the kings of white jerseys and who elected them to that office?

 

[GAVol]

I think the home team gets to choose.

Also, I think I remember seeing something where they were discussing whether to relax the uniform rule to allow two teams to both wear colors.

 

[WA_Vol]

Fulmer's fond of the long johns look.

 

[hmanvolfan]

none of the above.

So we're not wearing white, orange or checkerboard. Then what, pray tell, will our guys be wearing? Hope it's not an Emperors new clothes thing.

 

[hmanvolfan]

I think the home team gets to choose.

If that is so, then why does every team wear their dark jerseys at home except LSU? Long live the king!!!!!!!!!

Of course my whole checkerboard thing was a joke but how come Smokie in your avatar has on a checkerboard jersey? lol:

 

[doozer]

because it looks good on the dog.

if we go the way of checkerboard jerseys, we might as well put diamond plate on the shoulders and knees, a la Oregon.

Thus the Nike reference in the original checkerboard post. Check...

Thanks for answering my question guys

 

[floridavol]

The Gators were the home team last year. So we will be wearing the white, away jerseys this year.
