Is that orange? looks like an orange stripe going down the middle. I would assume maroon, ...but it looks reflective? I dunno, I'm terrible at these things
The helmet on the right side matched up against the GT helmet is definitely orange. I think that is the reference.
Oh, somehow completely overlooked that. I am am idiot.
Metallic orange like we wore against Ohio State? The large picture makes me thing metallic orange, while the smaller image looks like regular orange.
I absolutely loved the metallic helmet and it's one of my favorites, but we are 0-2 in them. As much as it pains me to say, the metallic orange needs to NOT come out of retirement.
Probably the metallic orange we wore against Eastern Carolina, which is different than the 2015 orange helmets.
2015:
(Orange VT, no stripe)
2016:
(White VT, current tapered stripe)
Current one, with the white, is better. That other one doesn't need to come back.
They are the same helmet just different decals. This year's style is more refined.
Saw on Twitter from Clark Ruhland earlier this year that the orange chrome is actually a little bit darker than the one we used last year.
They look identical in the promotional images. Either way it doesn't really matter to me.
The spotify playlist thing is pretty neat. First time I've paid close enough attention to notice it if it's not the first time they've included it
I've never noticed that either. After looking through some of the playlists on there, I like your style, Coach Burden.
I wish they would bring back this logo on the helmets.
and these too..../s
Can I just eternal sunshine these out of my brain?....Please?
Be careful, Elijah Wood will steal your manic pixie Kate Winslet.
Preffered these two over the tech one if we're going to be honest.
Endzones are painted maroon so I'd be surprised
Why? We've worn orange helmets with maroon jersey and maroon pants before (against OSU, I believe) and had maroon painted endzones.
I'm pretty confident we'll see the orange helmets w/ maroon jersey and maroon pants saturday.
We will be wearing orange helmets this weekend. The same ones we wore against East Carolina this year.
For reference
edit: Confirmed
So...we're 1-0 in them...
BTW-does anyone know of Motley high-fived the cheerleader? Kinda looks like he left her hanging...which ain't cricket, man!
I am more concerned as to when JaRule became a cheerleader for tech.
I'm glad I wasn't the only one who had both of these thoughts (one leading to the next) either
Pretty sure she was giving him a shoulder pat so she wasn't left hanging
"Eastern" Carolina
Place puking puppet here please.
I appreciate the enthusiasm of the cheerleaders, even through a blowout.
edit- meant to reply to thread above.
All for it!
In past games they've revealed helmet colors when the reveal the #25 jersey and in that tweet, the helmet is maroon:
Clark Ruhland has posted computer desktop wallpapers for each game this season and he has always been right on helmet choice.
Here is this weeks
geez you go on honeymoon and miss a lot.. orange is tight
doesn't matter what we wear, we'll destroy them
Happy Veteran's Day tomorrow
P.S. tailgate in the very front of German Club all day, holler at your boy
Congrats on the honeymoon. May it last your lifetime. (Tee hee)
Will also agree to shout out to all the other vets on site to have a Happy Veteran's Day tomorrow. I'll be toasting my fellow comrades in arms, err, to be honest in my case, my comrades in typewriters, but there will be toasts, after fishing!
don't care. we could wear the foghorn leghorn helmets for an entire season if it mean't going 12-0 and winning the ACCCG.
just win, baby.
I think you mean 15-0!
You mean 1-0
Confirmed orange for Saturday
Orange.... huh, seems to be a trend this week
Orange outline in the end zone this week as well.
Oh that's nice. Seriously, just make that the standard and its all good.
Orange outline for day games, but white for night. Really pops on the field and on TV. Looks awesome.
Why not have both an orange and white outline, like we have on ACC logo and occasionally on the VT in the center of the field. I personally think that is the best look.
Oh man, that is too dope! I love it!
Looks like maroon jerseys & pants w/orange brainbuckets. Same as ECU. Hopefully nobody gets a wild hair and breaks out those awful orange pants.
or jerseys
I think I read that we didn't order orange pants or jerseys this season. If we did you'd think we'd have seen them by now.
Like the Orange Effect game....
This is correct... Orange was never an option this year... I suspect that will remain that way going forward
Good news too me. Orange reminds me of uva.
Orange helmets, maroon jerseys, WHITE pants according to VT Football tweet
A uniform combo that has never before been seen, per Clark Ruhland.
I was pretty drunk, but those looked like the shiny Orange helmets we wore against OSU
0-3 in those orange helmets I believe.....please retire.
uh... no.
They updated them this year. We're 1-1 in them. East Carolina and Georgia Tech.
apologies.... I was on my bachelor party at Nags Head watching that game..... and was again.... mad drunk when we played ECU....
I'll give the oranges one more chance.
We did have fun strolling around town that night yelling "Argh" and heckling ECU fans in what will be my last and final visit to Kelly's before they close this fall.
....we beat the piss out of ECU in them earlier this year....
Sometimes its not about the color of the helmet, but rather the quality of the play by those wearing it
Sounds like crackpot science to me.
I've been a big proponent of retiring all of the uniform combos we've lost in and playing in jock straps for a long time now.
Not that there's anything wrong with...actually no, that's just wrong.
Coaches too?
Team No Pants!
