I don't even know why, but I'm strangely comfortable with this, assuming the uniforms are not some horrid deviation from our regulars. Not my preference, but it feels much less contrived than in times past.

Also, correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe we're undefeated in this game when we've worn alternates('05 and '10).

As others have said, let's just beat these guys by being the better team.

It's all good, I think they look sharp. As in the past, the uni changes may not always be my preference but if that's what recruits like these days so I'll live with it. I'm more of a fan of retro jerseys than weird a$$ gator skin jerseys.

Oops,,,,

Looks like she just found out I’m married.

As to uniform preferences.
That crap sailed away long ago.
Now, I just want what the team wants and what draws recruits our way.
You know,,,, the really cool looking stuff.

I don't mind these because they kept the script on both sides. I hate any helmet with the slanted F, whether its just one side or both.

I actually like changing it up and am fine with almost any uniform we have used except I'm not fond of the dual logo helmet and despise the alligator skin unis. That being said, I'm extremely skeptical that it impacts recruiting in any way. Same with the Jordan logo, it sounds good to say it's great for recruiting but I can't imagine there is a single recruit we have or will ever have that the Jordan logo made the difference.

White is associated with light, goodness, innocence, purity, and virginity. It is considered to be the color of perfection.
White means safety, purity, and cleanliness.
As opposed to black, white usually has a positive connotation, i.e. "Guck Feorgia!"

That was my question. I didn't remember winning a game with the white helmets. This game will make two. Florida is going to kick their a$$,
We beat FSU on Tebow's senior day in white helmets.

Yeah, well what was the result of SECCG 09? I wouldn't want to repeat THAT. As for what's on both sides, I'd rather have the gatorhead logo on both sides. Much more cool.
Well, we did beat Vandy in these once...:stirpot:

And Stricklin did react this week to a tweet saying helmet color has never impacted a game.

And it looks like these may have Gators on both side and not just one.

And we are the away team so we could go full white like SEC '09 or UT '16...:deadhorse:

I actually like the script on the helmet more than the gatorhead logo.

I bet we're going all white. Can't imagine we would be wearing these on any other tops
We are the visitor in even numbered years. Except for 2014-15, when both teams wore their own colors, the visitor has always worn white tops (except back when SOS was QB - both schools went throwback in 2014-15). No matter what, we will be wearing white tops.

If we're gonna wear white helmets, I would prefer white pants for the all white look.
