gdu Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 Not sure about those 'bama lids, that looks to close to Cocky's in that image for me...strange, I've never seen those before. What games did they wear those for?http://www.mghelmets.com/index.htmlGo to NCAA, SEC, then Alabama. 1983-1984.Their years are a little off, they wore them under Bryant, as seen in the "Roll Tide, War Eagle" documentary, and he retired after the 1982 season.They were also worn under another coach according to the forum I got that picture from.

Brave-Bird 08 Posted December 1, 2011 Author Share Posted December 1, 2011 University of Georgia sports information department has confirmed the Dawgs will be in red jerseys and "silver" britches against LSU, despite the fact the seniors asked earlier in the year to wear the Pro Combat uniforms again if they made it to the dome. Can't argue. I think Georgia vs. LSU makes for one of the more beautiful games in CFB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I attended the 1983 Alabama-LSU game in Baton Rouge, and Bama wore white helmets that day (was played at 11 a.m. local time so that ABC could televise the game).UPDATE: The link below is from Alabama's official website. It details the years of white helmets. 1983 and 84 are correct, in addition to some of the years under Bear Bryant in the '60s and in 1971.http://www.rolltide.com/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/060706aaa.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He hasn't done so well as a coach in alternates. There was the blackout against Alabama that didn't end so well. There was the black helmet/pants for the Worlds Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party which they lost. Then there was the Pro Combats earlier this year that resulted in a loss. The only win I can remember was the Sugar Bowl versus Hawaii, and I mean come on, it was an overrated Hawaii team. I think this is a smart move on his part.

TalktoChuck Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 He also hasn't done well as a coach in regular uniforms too....maybe they should dump those tooOut of 11 seasons he's only had one losing one(and that was technically a .500 season), and Georgia has been ranked in the top 25 at the end of every season except the last two. I'd say he's done a pretty good job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got it. And 0-1 vs. the "high-school teams in the so-called "mountain west" conference?" Ouch. That's not very good. I guess you are easily impressed.

DC in Da House w/o a Doubt Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 Thank god UGA is sticking with their normal set. I truly think that may be my favorite look in college football. And don't let the lack of wins against top 25 teams fool you, Georgia is GOOD. And their young as hell too, don't be surprised to see them be a legit title contender next season, and the season after that. That being said, LSU will probably beat them by 3 scores.

Can't argue. I think Georgia vs. LSU makes for one of the more beautiful games in CFB.According to Richt, none of the players were like "Hey, remember when we asked for it?" I'm guessing that the entire team chalked the alts up to bad luck.Good decision, those PC uniforms were garbage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
