Tennessee debuted its dark mode uniforms against South Carolina Saturday at Neyland Stadium.
The dark mode uniforms consist of a white helmet with black outline and black face masks, black jerseys and black pants.
It is the first alternate uniform to be worn under first-year Tennessee head coach Josh Heupel.
“I’m honored to be the head coach of Tennessee football,” Heupel said at SEC media days ahead of the season. “This is one of the great and iconic logos in all of college football, steeped in tradition. It’s a great honor to be the caretaker of Tennessee football at this time and really proud of what our players and our staff have done in six months. Just couldn’t be prouder and really excited about getting back onto the football field.
As we talk today a little bit, just had a lot of fun getting to know the former players at Tennessee, connect with the community, and this great iconic logo, be able to put a new age approach on it, while celebrating the great traditions that are Tennessee football. The first priority when I and our staff got to Tennessee was about relationships, and it still is today. That will be the foundation of everything that we do inside of our program, but that came through a conversation with our players.”
