Late Friday, rumors flew that the Florida Gators would debut a new look — their 2015-debuted white helmets with white jerseys and white pants — at Tennessee on this Saturday.
On Saturday morning, via Florida’s official equipment staff Twitter account, those rumors came true.
Florida’s worn these white helmets just twice before, in a victory over Vanderbilt and a loss to Florida State in 2015, pairing them with orange and blue uniforms in those two games. The Gators also wore special white Nike Pro Combat helmets in 2009 in a win over Florida State and an SEC Championship Game loss to Alabama.
