On his afternoon sports shoe in atlanta, Buck Belue (sp?) made a nasty comment on our uniforms, calling them ugly, old, boring, etc.... This, coming from an alumnus of a school that frets over what shade of uniform or helmet they should wear to 'motivate' the team. (see 2008 uga vs UA or 2009 uga vs UF)
Lord help Alabama if we ever need motivation like that!

On the other hand, tradition is the thing that sustains us. Tradition is that which allows us to prevail in ways that we could not otherwise." University President David Matthews talking to an Alabama team in the early 70s.
Well, I guess we, PSU and OK will just have to hold the gates against the barbarians...

Alabama is 2- and 3-deep all over the place with full grown, meaner-than-he!! men. It's almost not fair making college kids play against them. Any Saban-coached team is going to be deep as he!! with recruits that have elite size, strength and experience at their position and they are going to play with incredible physicality.
I support PAWS.

I told my wife the exact same thing after I saw Georgia in those Pee Wee football looking helmets they wore this weekend. They need to quit with the gimmicks and stick to playing football.
Old, ugly, boring... I'd prefer original, unique, and one of a kind.
Unlike most teams, you'd know whose uniforms ours belongs to by looking at them from a distance and the SAME GOES FOR OUR HELMETS COMPARED TO EVERYONE ELSE'S!

Belue 49 years old and he still acts like an arse for ratings. January of this year he was diagnosed with Bell's Palsy. Poor guy could not close his eye or move his chin. Maybe Quasi Moto is having a hard time with making out uniforms.
The most common cause of Bell's palsy appears to be the herpes simplex virus, which also causes cold sores and genital herpes. Other viruses that have been linked to Bell's palsy include the virus that causes chickenpox and shingles (herpes zoster), the virus that causes mononucleosis (Epstein-Barr), and another virus in the same family (cytomegalovirus).

Well Georgia has turned into a two-bit program because of their soft coach who tries to make his living with gimmicks such as Canadian Football uniforms. They waste more talent over there than any other program that I can think of. If they want to make fun of our uniforms... well, have at it.
Georgia is not man enough to wear real football uniforms.
They are a Pee Wee team.
I'd take a Pop Warner team against'em, and lay the points.
