I didn't get to see UT's season opener last week, so this is the first time I've seen the Vols' uniforms. Am I the only one who thinks the tops of their jerseys look really weird?

No I'm with you. It looks.... weird

It looks like it has a yellow tint to it. Maybe it's the lights..

I think it's just the different material. But it looks like two types of jerseys were sewn together, and that's by design. Not a good look, IMO, but that's just me.

They have a bunch of tiny power T's on them similar to the pants

Yeah. I think the way it's done on the shorts works better than the jerseys.

Better first half against UNCA than against KSU.
Need to do a better job of getting to the line 33% FTR and playing defense without fouling (gave up a 65% FTR).
Giving up a FG% that is too high as well (50%) and not getting the offensive boards (20% ORR).
Still pretty solid half from Golden, McRae, Kenny and Josh. We are at 1.16 pts/poss for the half.

I like 'em.
I do think they look better up close than they do on TV.

Chievous abused by an undersized small forward.
It would be nice if Yemi could play without fouling.

In fairness, Atkinson does this to almost everyone.
He's a great player.

It figures. You guys never agree on anything, including the color of the sky.

Meh. He's a good college player. But he's 6-4 210.
His game isn't backing down the other team's 4.

Why do teams play anything other than zone defense against Tennessee? I will never understand that.
