There's a pic on the front of govols.com that has Eric Berry catching a gold football. What's up with that? Just my natural curiosity.

I was curious about that myself. I assume the practice balls are probably a little different, just not sure why.

at Notre Dame I could see it, but shouldnt it be orange? Hey, how about an orange and white checkered football?

That would definitely be better than gold. It kind of cramps our style!

We have a style? Offensively, there's a glimmer of a trend but no style yet...



The gold football... weird.

i don't know why the football is gold, but the firt thing that popped in my head was the Golden Egg.....something to be treasured....never to be lost.....maybe some visualization to make them value the football?

we def dont have a style, unless up the middle, up the middle, pass, punt-is a style. Oops, I was just reliving the Johnny Majors days.

It's Gold beacuse Fulmer touched it, and as we know, everything he touches, turns to gold baby!!!!

maybe the different colors represent different weights, like regular (round) med balls...?

just reminded me of Goldmember though...
