White helmet, blue jersey, white pants?

See, to me that would look terrible, and more gimmicky than just keeping the flow. I think it was decided that we're going back to home/away uniforms in this series. We were in our home's last year and will be in road's tomorrow(or today, in case NV is reading). That was my point. I think if you have white jerseys and a white helmet, to me we're better off just keeping that flow all the way down. It's not my favorite overall, but it looks better than all white from head to waist, then orange or blue pants. In that respect, I'm good with it.

Ribs on the smoker. Wings almost done. Drinks poured and getting ready for kickoff in a couple hours.

Ah, no. It appears that the "both teams wear home jerseys" short-lived (2014, 15, and 16) era is OVER. We are the away team. We will wear white tops. Besides, it's supposed to be sunny and warm, and the visitor is on the east side. Trust me, it gets hot over there. All white is probably the best option with that helmet and a white top.

I'm kinda curious what the end game is with the white helmet since we keep bringing it back. Are we trying to phase it in or does it simply represent our occasional Sunday best?
If they wanted to make a change they would just do it, it's just a change of pace/fake mojo thing.

Wish they would go with blue instead, all white uniforms and white helmets are left overs from games being on black and white TV's.

Why would this lead you to believe they are phasing it in?
I didn't say that. I wondered whether that was the motivation. I honestly don't know. Rebranding often follows that pattern, phasing in a change overe time. I'm just speculating what's in the minds of the football program and whether Jordan Brand is calling the shots with USD.

I hate all-white. It's anti-football.

All white...the better to see grass and field logo paint stains with, Deary. Tebow-like badges of effort.

How can they be calling the shots? They aren't paying us anything. Some teams are getting multi millions but our crack AD negotiated a tiny deal for free jerseys.

They can play in tights as far as I am concerned as long as we stomp their ass.
The pressure is all on them.

If weose, mehhh, its a rebuilding year and first year of a transition.

If they lose? Sweet gallons of tears amd people openly questioning the hire of Kirby Smartchump.

I understand people getting annoyed at really ugly uniforms like the green lizard ones we wore, but angry over this? They look good. We wear all white all the time (which is my favorite combo) the only difference is the white helmets.

Hell, UF used to wear white helmets in the past, so how is this some crazy combination? Geezum, lighten up.

Geezum?

ESPN just showed a close up of the helmet. There are iridescent blue specks on the white helmet.
