pittfan11 Posted September 23, 2005 Share Posted September 23, 2005 Here are some interesting college football uniform combos I would like to see this year. (I'm not sure if some of these even exist) Utah: red/white or white/red Boise state: blue/white or blue/orange (they wore orange pants against Georgia) Oregon:green/white Wisconsin: red/red Tennesee: orange/orange Missouri: black/white Boston College: red/red Va. tech: red/red Florida: white/white Louisville: white/whiteAdd any others if you want to.

PackerBadger Posted September 23, 2005 Share Posted September 23, 2005 Wisconsin hasn't worn the all-red in a game (I call it the Barry and the Blood Clots look) in the Barry Alvarez era. The last time they did was in a home game against Iowa with the previous UW coach, Don Moron. They lost, of course, but then again they only won six games in three seasons. They do usually wear the all-red look in the Cardinal and White scrimmage for some reason -- the Cardinal wear(s) all-red and the White wear white jerseys and their (too infrequently used) red pants.I can imagine the all-red being used once a season, say, Homecoming, and that's it. As bad as the all-red might be to some, the all-white is to me, for any team. It should never be used by anybody, unless you like your fat players to look like the Michelin Man.

WSU151 Posted September 23, 2005 Share Posted September 23, 2005 Tennessee has worn orange/orange in the past, usually against Vanderbilt. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vicfurth Posted September 23, 2005 Share Posted September 23, 2005 Last time I remember Tenn. wearing all-orange was when they won the NCAA tournament...Oh, wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRice16 Posted September 23, 2005 Share Posted September 23, 2005 Last time I remember Tenn. wearing all-orange was when they won the NCAA tournament...Oh, wait. Tennessee last wore orange/orange against Memphis in 1999. After needing a last minute score to beat the lowly Tigers, Fulmer mothballed them indefinitely.While the combo was worn against Vanderbilt once in 1987, it was more typically used for Homecoming under former coach Johnny Majors.

I stand corrected...I remember it was pretty recently that they wore them (wasn't able remember the year), and I thought it was the end of the year against Vandy. Thanks for the info. I must have been thinking about that '99 game against Memphis. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're both wrong,the last time that the Vols wore all orange prior to '99 was in '88 vs. Alabama,i remember that season vivdly for all the wrong reasons.

I never said the only time they wore orange before '99 was in '87, but I do know for a fact (I'm looking at a picture) that they wore them against Vandy in 1987. They also wore all orange for at least four homecoming games during the Majors years (Four were all the years that I could get pictures from). The last time Tennessee wore white/orange was in 1992 in a loss at South Carolina. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmackman Posted September 23, 2005 Share Posted September 23, 2005 Florida often does wear white on white such as last year's game at Tennessee...They also wear blue on blueWhite on blue...Regular blue on white...White on Orange...And a few years ago they even wore blue on orange which looked like crap!!!I had a picture of Gerald Riggs Jr. in Orange on Orange for Tennessee but I don't know where I put it. Meanwhile here's an old photo of Reggie White in all orange...I know UW had red on red but I think that was for their spring practice scrimmage. "Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the fastest lion or it will be eaten. Every morning in Africa, a lion wakes up. It knows it must outrun the slowest gazelle or it will starve. It doesn't matter whether you're a lion or a gazelle. When the sun comes up, you'd better be running." - Unknown | Check out my articles on jerseys at Bacon Sports Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BRice16 Posted September 23, 2005 Share Posted September 23, 2005 I had a picture of Gerald Riggs Jr. in Orange on Orange for Tennessee but I don't know where I put it. I'd sure like to see that because Riggs has only been here since '01 and I know for an absolute fact that we haven't worn all orange (or even orange pants, for that matter) since he's been here. I've been at every home and most every away game during that period (missed 3), so I'd sure like to know where its from. The only time the orange pants from 99 have made it out of the box was for the last two manager-trainer Thanksgiving flag football games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JetsLuvver Posted September 23, 2005 Share Posted September 23, 2005 I don't know if they do this, but I'd like to see Indiana wear its red pants on the road. Hawaii should try its silver road pants with the home black.Also, was I imagining things or did Texas once wear an all-orange combo at some point during the Ricky Williams years?

rmackman Posted September 24, 2005 Share Posted September 24, 2005 I found the Florida Gators wearing the Blue and Orange combo from the 1999 home game against FSU!!!! Unfortunately Florida lost 30-23 that season for their second home loss of the year. Here was the caption under the article:Orange and Blue UF ran out onto the field Saturday looking a little different than they have throughout the 1990's. The Gators suited up in orange pants with blue jerseys for the first time since the 1989 UF-Florida State game. UF lost that game 24-17, and it was running back Emmitt Smith's last regular season game. The Gators wore blue pants and blue jerseys last year against the Seminoles.

oz615 Posted September 24, 2005 Share Posted September 24, 2005 Tennesee: orange/orange or white/orangeThis is photoshop rendition of the Vols white/orange set that i posted a year ago.The Gators wore blue pants and blue jerseys last year against the Seminoles. And in '97 as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmackman Posted September 24, 2005 Share Posted September 24, 2005 Florida has worn blue on blue once every year for the past few years. They wore it at home vs. Miami a few years back and once against Georgia too. "Every morning in Africa, a gazelle wakes up. It knows it must run faster than the fastest lion or it will be eaten.

They wore it at home vs. Miami a few years back and once against Georgia too. Didn't Meyer get rid of the blue pants? I seem to remember him saying that. But, then again, I also could have sworn that Florida wore the blue/orange combo often in the early 90's, but that was clearly not correct.

bigwalk Posted September 24, 2005 Share Posted September 24, 2005 I would like to see Miami wear something momochromatic (probably green) this year. I could also go for a Goergia Tech uniform that was either the no longer used navy jerseys and white pants or gold pants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
