Lots of fans, Spine Squad, and some other Georgia fan and student accounts like Barstool calling for a blackout also some players too.
I don’t think Kirby will call for one but it truly puzzles me how we seem to be the only program that has such a staunch hatred for blackouts when even our own players call for it and we use the jerseys to pull in recruits

I like to mix up the uniforms on occasion. Be a great morale booster for fans and players so we will see.

Georgia fans probably remember the 2008 Alabama blackout and the awful game that was. Perhaps that memory lingers.

Yeah… In no way shape or form is this current Tennessee team in the same universe as the 08 Bama team… but I get your point.

I’m gona blackout Tennessee if we play like we did last Saturday. Black out drunk and burn my frickin couch in the yard

Can someone give a rundown of all the games we wore black jerseys in? I feel like so many fans hate it because of what happened v Bama '08.. but Auburn '07 was one my favorite experiences at a UGA game ever... I would love to see the players come out in Black on Sat night

those people are absolute fricking morons.
We are 5-1 in the black jersey with multiple big time wins. We have worn them the same amount of times under Kirby that we did under Richt. We have won 3 in a row in black. We would've lost to bama that day no matter what color we wore. We've lost hundreds upon hundreds of football games wearing red and white jerseys but nobody cares about that. And if you were in the stadium that day, you'd know that the atmosphere was fricking ELECTRIC, right up until we started getting walloped.
You can be against the black jerseys for a host of reasons and I wouldn' t even argue with them, after all it really is just personal preference. But if the reasoning is "we lost a game to them 16 years ago to a team that ended up going 12-0" then...well I don't know what to say.

Feels like the Richt era is back asking for this shite for some sort of spark or momentum
No Bueno

tbf the spike squad "calls for" a blackout like 3 times a year so this is nothing new. Kirby aint the one talking about jerseys.

This is where I'm at.
How about we concentrate on fundamentals like: blocking and tackling and catching passes.

Are the players unable to do both? The older fans have such a weird hatred for anything different

Exactly. As if wearing black means they’ll be somehow so distracted that they can’t perform. “Oh God! I’m in black! Wait. Do I block the end or the outside backer on this play? The black is messing up my brain!”
Posted on 11/13/24 at 6:18 pm to claydawg09
Will we block and catch better? If so, I am in. If not, the Bama games ruined it forever

It’s such a terrible take, the fans love it, the players love it, and we literally use them for recruits.

The only time I ever talk about mens fashion and what other dudes are wearing is sports uniform.
That said, black jerseys and red helmets are a goofy look. It works a little better when the Falcons do it because they have a black helmet stripe, but our white helmet stripe screws it up.

I don't really see how?
Of the 2 pictures you posted the falcons one does look a bit better but I think it's because the red pops so much better on that one, marcus howard's looks super dull almost orange. But if you look at our recent iteration it does hvae the bright red:

Take away the alternate Uga logo and the dumb collar spikes and that's a fantastic looking uniform.
