Possible jersey idea if we had Nike.

I like the concept behind this but in no way, shape or form would I ever be ok with being a Tennessee fan on the day that we wore wings on our shoulders... you change this up and I think it would be a great alternate. My dad played for UT in 72-73 and I still have his jersey at home. I love the Orange and White, it looked great then and it looks great now. I will say though that the kids being recruited dont just care about things like this a little bit... It makes a huge impact when youre talking about new gear, cool new unis and so on. For most kids that would go to an SEC school they realize and love the tradition behind all teams uniforms besides the likes of Mizzou, but for them to get to wear a never before seen uni once a year or as a possibility to mix it up in a big game is something that kids these days love.

The jersey is hideous. The team should use all orange more often.

Really? A down vote? I understand that you may disagree with me, but there's no need to DV someone for merely having a differing opinion.

Same thing happened to me the other day but I got ganged for 5 down votes. Not a fan of full time black uni fan but you get a +1 from me just on principle.

Not my favorite. I've seen other "alternative" stuff I like better. One thing I will say is don't mess with the helmets. The only thing I've seen with them that I remotely like is the stripe down the middle being checkerboard.
Got ya back with a +1 FearSmokey. Can't believe some of the downvotes handed out!

And to you motown..... +1

tennessee has some of the coolest, most recognizable uniforms/helmets in college football. Personally, I wouldn't change much.

A voice of reason!

Only for Hallowwen games
If we want to go with a different color combo I would go orange and grey. It's a great look and not so garrish.
