Texas to wear throwback unis to honor the '69 title winning team

[Goo Punch 4,275]

 

 

[Not a Sock 2,366]

Can we make that jersey permanent?

[GotThatFire 166]

 Seriously every time we go with a throwback I just wish they would keep it permanent. 

[Red Five 41,736]

For the love of god if nothing else please keep the dark longhorn on the helmet.

[Nueces River Rat 5,796]

This should be our every home  game from now on uni.   The all white would look bad ass too.

[Buck Strickland 380]

When are they going to reveal how to fucking tackle to the team?!

. . . and change the jersey color to match!

[NeverMarryAStripper 22,294]

I’d settle for some tackling throwback to 1969

[gmr548 16,696]

All seven fans in attendance/ watching on LHN will love them.

We need a road version

[Sgt Hulk 14,429]

So sexy 

[Kennythetiger 9,622]

You said 69.

[WBT 20,972]

The 1969 team had the 100 on the helmet all year right?  We should have worn the 150 all year too.

[BigHorn'13 3,494]

I don't know guys. A Longhorn collar logo would really just add that missing touch. Maybe even making that uniform but in an all black as an alternate alternate. Should I tweet this to CDC? I bet a fashion forward fella such as himself sure'dly agree. 

[Nope 3,151]

Who is that wearing the jersey in the video?

[Bevo&Pevo 5,517]

First, you said '69.....heh..heh...

Second, last all white team to win a national championship.

Third, yep I was on the old site back in the day and I don't give a furk if ya'll like or not.

KMAss.

To be fair, if it’s tackling a bunch of slow-ass whiteboys running a 4.9 I like our chances....

[deft 7,059]

We should also honor the '69 team by going 3 and out with 2 throws behind LOS.

[Girdwood 118]

Finally. God those are incredible compared to the shit we roll out there these days.

Apparently, even God can't figure out to get us in right shade of orange anymore.

But if it works for one game then so be it.

hnnnngggghhh

Every time people complain about the jersey color, I think about that post from the equipment guy with like 30 years worth of them, all the same color. It’s not the color, it’s the material.

That said, the clean design is so much better than what’s current. 

[dingleberryswitzer 2,724]

This is a great way to reward the players after a hard fought loss to their most rivalrous of rivals.  

 

[TexasMan 11,453]

Nicest national championship of all time. 

[Tailgate 3,073]

One week too late.

Players would have been pumped in Dallas to wear these. Coaches can’t get them fired up...this will.

Seriously?

[The Whistler 14]

who's the guy giving the speech at the beginning?  i see him in every game.   he's basically tied to Herman's hip, especially when Herman is talking to the refs.

Happy we’re honoring one of my favorite teams of all time. Hate all the social media hype after a 2nd loss, this one particularly bad after 3 straight meh showings. 

Social media's gonna roll on, it's how recruiting works now. The players all deleted most of their social media before the season started - they just have their Instas.

The uniform is "work clothes" and I love it.

The 150 patch over the horns on the helmet needs to go.

He was wrong. I deal with fabrics, our cottons and nylons in royal blue, navy, khaki, and orange are the same. You can dull down performance fabric colors easily.

[markstanco 12,786]

When are they wearing them? Hopefully not this weekend against kansas on LHN where 10s and 10s of people will be watching.

Yep, this weekend. Ugh. 

[Stringer 1,487]

Since we're wearing the '69 throwbacks, are we going to let our African American players play this week?

Are you suggesting a 100 patch, or do you just come up with bad ideas?

He showed a picture where they were literally all the same. Not sure how it’s possible for that to be wrong...

They appear differently on tv and/or in light vs shadow and/or when they get sweaty. Side by side, the color is the same.

It's a nice jersey in the OP's pic. 

 

Very nice

[Girdwood 118]

It’s criminal these aren’t our full time uniforms- minus the 150 decal (nod to the 100). Can you imagine the stormtroopers with this look??? My god our current uniforms are ass my dude.

That's a good point about them getting wet, they will darken differently.

Yes and put the players number back above the Longhorn on the side of the helmet.

Nah, then it's too cluttered, like our current jerseys. Just the longhorn, keep it dead simple.

Recruiting continues.

If you are expecting everybody to wear sackcloth and ashes you might just want to tune out for awhile. 

[n64ra 1,150]

We should honor the 1969 team by not giving up more than 17 points in a game ... like the '69 team.
