And now, because the Blob is an official Hideous Uniform Shaming Zone, we present this, which is the getup Florida will be wearing at home against Texas A&M this weekend.
According to the promotional copy, they're "gator-inspired." I guess, although I've never seen a gator with a shiny silver head. I think they're "gator-inspired" in much the same way a guy wearing a charcoal-gray suit is "charcoal-inspired."
Also, it would have been nice if, somewhere in all that "swamp-green" and silver, they might have included a few touches that would remotely identify the wearers as, you know, the University of Florida football team.
Oh, wait. I guess the numbers will be orange, and there's a smidge of blue on the sleeves that you'll be able to see if you squint really hard. So I guess it's all good.
I also guess the reaction of fans in Ben Hill Stadium will include this:
"Where are the Gators?"
"Cool, it's the X-Men!"
"Hey, look, they must be filming a sequel to 'Any Given Sunday'."
"WHERE ARE THE GATORS??"
