The purpose in wearing throwbacks isn't to look nice. However, I happen to like these more so than other throwbacks I've seen.

Thanks goodness, cuz, dude, they look terrible. Nevertheless, I hope you guys win.

Everyone has their own opinion. I think they look pretty cool, not to mention the tan helmets to replicate the oldschool leather ones will be pretty cool too (for a one-time thing).

I'm sad we are not going to use the Delaware helmet design because that is literally the style we wore back in the day, as did many other colleges

You guys do realize there's a reason a helmet wasn't announced with the jersey right?

Love the mid 20th century look. So are they going to have leather helmets, pads, and no face mask. That would surely take care of the targeting problems after a couple of broken noses.

Helmets are guaranteed. There's a reason the helmet wasn't at the reveal.

1981 isn't too much of a throwback but they are good looking.

We already wear our 1981 jerseys every week. These are from the 1930s before we suspended the program for WW2.

Hadn't seen this posted on this forum. This is with the leather replica helmet we will be wearing. "Teachers" stands for "Georgia Teachers College" which is what we were when these uniforms were used.

I actually thought this thread might be a joke, as in "Haha! We always wear throwbacks, you rubes!"

I like the look of them.

Haha yeah no kidding. I'll probably be buried alive for saying this, but these jerseys wouldn't be half bad for multiple uses.

Here's a video that shows the jerseys and helmets and a little bit of the history behind them.
