After wearing their traditional orange home jerseys during pregame warmups, the Vols took the field against South Carolina in black jerseys with orange numbers and orange pants. ... The Vols wore black jerseys prior to adopting orange jerseys during the 1922 season. --AP
I just saw a clip on ESPN of one of Tennesse's scores. Those uniforms are strange. Black jersey's and orange pants. Fits the halloween theme. Wonder if they'll ever wear that combo again.
That was a VERY nice touch, and got a huge response from the crowd. I read somewhere that Tennessee wanted SC to wear black jerseys, but SC stated they were saving the black for their Florida game. Thanks for the pics. Neyland is a beautiful place.
