North Carolina's Kickoff Uni's

[Woy]

Co-sign.

I actually prefer just home and away.

Maybe because your school doesn't have alternates?

Oh wait, mine doesn't either. :stupidsmile:

The helmet looks nice, I wonder if they're going to have matching pants? But bitching about uniforms is kind of lame. It's something that excites the players when they get to wear something new or something that's very rare. At my high school, we always wanted to wear all black because we never really got to. But the one game of the year that we did, it was special.

Uniforms are for the players and can be a big deal. It shouldn't be a big deal for a fan though.

Stop being such a old man....they're just uniforms.

Helmets are great, nut gotta see the rest.

As long as the uniforms look good, honestly I could care less how many different combinations a team wears throughout the season, and I know a lot of players feel this way as well.

^^^ Just sayin....Its not a big deal, ugly or not, they're just uniforms.

And yea, its always been true, players love wearing crazy shit. Look good = feel good = play good.

Georgia is 1-3 in the "black out" uniforms...Notre Dame has stumbled lately when they wear their green unis.

I'd say that playing dress up instead of focusing on playing football is a recipe for disaster.

UNC is gonna look like clowns as they get clownstomped by LSU.

Georgia is 2-1 actually when wearing their black uniforms IIRC. They beat Auburn and Hawaii but then got crushed by Alabama. Not sure on when they wore them recently (Insert Hova/Nash/random UGA fan here).

The jerseys don't have much to do with it IMO, its the players wearing them, and the guys coaching the players.

actually we are 2-1. 2-2 if you consider the Florida game a "blackout game"

2007- Auburn W
2007- Hawaii W
2008- Bama L
2009- Florida L

Florida wasn't really a blackout game as it wasn't preset or anything. We just decided to wear black pants.

Didn't wear the black tops

All I said was look good, feel good, play good. That doesnt mean winning...lol

I routinely wanted to look good, so I could feel good, so I could play good. And we routinely got our asses handed to us....

Good call, meant to say 1-2, forgot about Hawai'i. Yes I count black helmets and black pants a blackout game. Aside from one win over Auburn (Hawai'i game was over whether they wore red, black or pink) the "looking good" aspect has helped them little.

you could also say the Alabama and Florida games were losses in red, black, or pink.

The main thing it creates is the atmosphere. If anyone has watched a home blackout game (not Florida game. that was stupid to do at a neutral site) then the atmosphere is crazy and the players and crowd is pumped.

The Alabama and Auburn games were two of the loudest games in Sanford history. The only time I can remember it being as loud is the 2004 LSU game.

 

[the Brain]

I hate to admit it. As a UNC fan who loves the simple Carolina Blue & white uniforms, I'm not much on alternates for them. I loathe the navy blue stuff they wear now. But I do like that helmet. Now let's see if I can take the rest of the ensemble.

Not a flame, but is Richt the type of guy that gets his players hyped up before the game in the locker room? I just see these types of jerseys as a gimmick to get the players up. Personally, I wouldn't look at Frank Beamer either and think he is some type of master motivator.

not really. It started in 2007. We started off pretty bad record wise. We needed some energy to turn the season around.

After a 35-7 loss to Tennessee and a narrow victory against Vandy, we stormed the field against Florida and danced after first score. It gave us an edge and we won that game. Then the next week we pulled off a blackout and blew out Auburn. The game was crazy. Then for the bowl game against Hawaii, the Seniors asked if they could wear them. Since they wore them they were part of the bowl package and they got to keep the uniforms. We went on to blow out Hawaii 49-10.

Most UGA people thought they were a good luck charm. So in 2008, we pulled them out against Bama. The crowd was crazy but we came up short 41-30.

Most UGA fans at this point were thinking we had overused the black jerseys (three times in two years).

Well last year against Florida the seniors asked Richt if they could wear them. He agreed but if you look, most Georgia fans (myself included) did not like the jerseys that game.

But, in all 4 games, the Seniors were the ones that asked Richt for them. Not the other way around

Go figure, at most schools, the crowd and players don't need a gimmick to get pumped. Playing for a lifeless personality like Mark Richt though, I guess you need to dress up every now and then.

THIS SHIT IS HELLA SICK

that is one of Richt's biggest faults.

That is why we need coordinators that are fiery and can get us pumped.

Van Gorder was that, Willie Martinez was not. Grantham should be like that.
