Tennessee football shows off home uniform for 2023 season
Tennessee football had four different uniform options during the 2022 season and used them all, alternating between the classic orange on white look along with orange on orange, the Smokey Grey alternate uniform and the all-black alternate.
The Vols on Tuesday afternoon showed off a closer look at their home uniform for the 2023 season with photos and videos posted on social media.
The update included a look at the new Nike jersey template along with gloves and arm sleeves with a new Power T pattern.
Vols wore four different helmets, two alternate uniforms during regular season
Tennessee had plenty of options in picking uniforms last season. In 12 regular-season games, the Vols wore two alternate uniform sets and four different helmets.
At South Carolina on November 19 Tennessee debuted a new orange helmet paired with the white road jersey and white pants. The orange helmet was the fourth different one the Vols have worn for the season, to go with the traditional white helmet, the black helmet with the ‘Dark Mode’ alternate uniform and the Smokey Grey helmet.
The black helmet featured a black face mask with an orange stripe and orange Power T’s. The Smokey Grey helmet has multiple shades of grey, with the Smokey Mountains on the back to go with a grey face mask, orange stripe that includes a checkerboard pattern on the back, and orange Power T’s.
Tennessee closed the 2022 season in its classic home uniform, with orange jerseys, white pants and white helmets, in the 31-14 win over Clemson in the Orange Bowl at Hard Rock Stadium in November.
