Gold/White/Gold is preferred and tradition.

You think thats what 18-22 year olds are thinking? Yall put way too much emotion in what uniforms are being worn.

A quick gloss over your topics page was ironic.

Thank you.

I like the traditional uniforms fine, but I don’t mind seeing a change up a couple games a year. I think the purple helmets with a gold and white stripe down the center would look good.

Our tradition is to wear purple, gold and white. Purple jerseys aren’t an alternate, they’ve been worn forever.

I love the G/W/G and the G/P/G looks really good - close second. The only other occasional uniform should be the all white. It does look good. I dislike any uniform with purple helmets, purple pants, or gold jerseys.

You think people older than college students care what the players think? You consider the opinion and the emotions of kids who don't pay the bills and never have.

They wore gold 60 years ago. They now wear yellow. It's yellow!!

Exactly. Alabama over the last 15 years told their 18-22 year olds that their brand was more important than their Desire to wear “hot fire”. Those 18-22 year olds put their vanity away and still performed well on the field with just two uniforms.

frick off with all of this.

Bama, Texas and USC are the only programs that haven’t worn alternates in recent memory. Bama DID do a Nike Pro Combat back in the 2010s, but it wasn’t much different than their typical. Every other “traditional” program you would try to hang your hat on has in just the last 5 years.

No one else, even Bama and USC, has the potential to the same uniform for an entire season. Neither wears white at home, so they have different home and road uniforms. We don’t, hence the need to inject some variety. Even Nick Saban hated this and brought back the Purple jerseys for one game per year because the players wanted SOMETHING.

Was this taken too far the last two years- sure. But as long as we aren’t deviating from school colors like UT and A&M did yesterday, and limiting to one or two alternates per year, then there isn’t an issue. We will probably wear all white on the road for a game this year. We’ve seen the purples twice for the non-cons and that’s a good balance.

Here’s another way to look at this- every jersey variation, whether it’s a throwback like we had a few years ago, or a gold that pops up occasionally, is more money for the program. A program that we know needs funds to pay off debt from firing coaches, paying buyouts, and rev share. Every new variation sells more jerseys and makes money. This is NOT a bad thing, especially with shitty-looking Adidas out there throwing more money than we get from Nike at UT and Ole Myth to make a splash.

I'm a traditionalist but the purple jerseys looked really great last night.
