Our uniforms are way too busy. Have a great weekend. Flame away!

I liked the influence Holtz had on our uniforms. They had a classic understated, midwest look about them. Our current unis, and unis in general, are much too busy. But I think the kids these days dig that.
 
Co-sign on permanent white pants. I think all we need is a road white version of the black jersey and we're set.

Im all for making this our look, though I do think our White helmet is the sharpest. As far as jersey and pants, this needs to happen and NEVER change. Just have a garnet, black, and white version of each. I’d be fine wearing white pants all the time regardless.
 
Looks like the 1978 game against Georgia Tech (has South Carolina ever won a football game in Atlanta?) with South Carolina losing 3-6. I like the Coach Carlen era uniforms
I was at that game, unfortunately. We had just beat Georgia at home the week before. seems like our football history (win a big game, and the next week get upset).........
 
Helmet should always match either the top, or the pants. Having three different colors doesn’t look as good imo.

I think I made a mistake. That is a photo of Kevin Long with the ball and Clarence Williams behind him. Both were drafted in the NFL in 1977. I think the game in the photo is South Carolina at Georgia Tech in 1976 with South Carolina winning 27-17.

I love these uniforms
 
Those Carlen uniforms didn’t have a lick of black on the jersey, so that’d be a no for me. If I ruled the world, Carolina would always wear white helmets (current ones) & white pants. The uniform we wore against Florida last season was the best looking uniform a Carolina team has ever taken the field wearing. Stripe sequence on the pants needs to match the ones on the helmet the way they did in ‘05 & ‘06.

Absolutely!. The away uniform would be the white helmets and jerseys with the black pants. I think they are supposed to transform the white and garnet jersey into the style of the current black jersey (2019).
 
Not trying to steer thread in different direction but found this ticket stub while searching for a picture of Kevin Long for a previous post.

Remember when tickets actually had the start time for games printed on them? This ticket shows the start time for 1:30 PM.

That white helmet has more success, by leaps & bounds, than any other helmet variation the Cocks have ever worn.

The white helmet I definitely the more traditional look. I love the garnet because that’s what I grew up watching, but I know the white is our best. The pants stripe and helmet stripe should match, they were opposite on the throwbacks. It really is a great look. Garnet and black version of the jerseys we wore last year as throwbacks and that’s a great looking uniform. Very similar to Auburn other than the pants stripe for Auburn is different. I agree with a previous poster that this was possibly the best look I’ve ever seen from a Gamecock Football team. We’ve worn the combo but never with such a good design before. I’d love to see us switch to this permanently but have two color home jerseys. That is plenty of variation so the uniform doesnt get boring, but people still know who they are watching when they tune in.

Outstanding post!
 
I truly believe they messed with the mojo by switching to the white helmet.
That's why we lost to UF.
Yep... That's the ONLY reason we lost to FL.. Anyone who knows football know that you don't mess with uniform mojo. We should fire the culprit who made that happen..:):);)

yes, I like the all white, the red with white pants and helmets. Then the red hats, the black shirts and white pants.
I like that the block C is bigger and you can make out the logo. I also like the font on the CAROLINA lettering. Again- clean look

I like several of the combos mentioned here. But outside of the 2012 Clemson game, I can't for the life of me understand why so many are enamored with the "stormtrooper" look. We have awesome school colors which are ignored with this combo. And over the past several years, all we seem to do is lose in them. I just don't get it.
 
Just so they don’t use UofSC. I hate that. We are USC. So what if another school came along and used it? How about OSU? Which school is that and who cares if there are more than one?
 
I’m definitely not a fan of the garnet jersey/black pants or black jersey/garnet pants combo. The only time I like seeing the garnet pants at home is with the garnet jerseys.
