Blue. Pants.

[AlabamaBuzz]

Yes, if we were going to use blue as a "primary" color in our uni's at home, why not against da'U? That would be a huge contrast, but against Duke?

This is the only thing I don’t get. I’m fine with the concept, but why I’m the world against a Blue and White team.

Duke is royal blue, not navy.

This IS the same organization who chose to have our first gold out against Vandy. I'm starting to wonder if they try to match on purpose. IE, if the fans show up in Navy, then the Duke fans won't be as noticeable. It is madness, yet there is method in it. Or, I could be giving the GTAA too much credit.

Makes sense. Match with any opposing fan base it looks good on tv. I thought the same thing. Kinda sad we do it but I get why.

 

[GTLorenzo]

We look like we belong in the MAC. Just sad what our uniforms have come to this year. Last year, Russell finally got them right and now this. If the team likes them, great. But seriously? For Homecoming? Blue pants?? Our marketing departments for the AA and the school are absolutely the worst in all of major college athletics.

I'm not sure I ever thought "I need to match my gameday wardrobe to the color pants my team is wearing." The season tickets said "wear gold" to every game except the whiteout for Miami. There's no push for fans to wear navy to this game unless I missed it.

It's fine if you don't like them, that's your prerogative. But the MAC? Huh? That's ridiculous.

Odd to me to bust this out against a team that's going to be decked in blue.

 

[Gold1]

Well i guess im not sure what the point of the whole gold promotion was. Seems we are a white and blue team now.

 

[RyanS12]

Win and no one will give a damn. Lose and then we won’t see them ever again. I don’t care. I’m not wearing them. The kids are. If it gets them hype to play then I’m with it.

Give the old fogeys a chance to wake from their mid-morning nap.

Ok I'm up what are we talking about? I'm sure I can find something to disagree with everyone.

Ah man, I'm disappointed. Expected a much bigger fuss. Maybe @Supersizethatorder-mutt won't disappoint us.

That isn’t really convincing. The shades are that much different. They obviously just didn’t give a thought to it, which is fine, I just think having two white and blue unis going is a bit weird.

I don’t care if we wear pink (I’d still think it’s weird). I just want to see us execute.

Well, that's what they look like. No traditional GT uniform, just some random colors, stripes, lines and nothing that looks like GT should look like. See below. THAT is Georgia Tech.

You can spot a Dook fan a mile away. Even on a 13” black and white TV you’d still be able to pick them out.

I repeat we look nothing like Pitt

This is so far from the truth

You think we have a good marketing department?

This is also how you create sidewalk fans. People like nice looking stuff regardless of affiliation

 

[stech81]

Two important questions, can we run the 3O in blue pants, and can the CB's play closer to the LOS on defense in blue pants? At least it's not red. I hate red.

This year has been really good with Adidas. Plus your tickets still says “WEAR GOLD!”
