You're right. Penn state was with the old gold helmets and all white everything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were wearing white pants and white helmets with green jerseys for the win against Clemson in the CCB and against Memphis in the Majik Jack Bowl. I only remember an ass kicking by Natty where we wore all white. I'm sure there is another loss when wearing the surrender uni's. Not to nitpick but I'm pretty confident it was green helmets against ND. I wouldn't mind a white out if we have an early home game in the early months.

However I try and forget all of our failures at uconn. Of course here's the full list for you: 2005 - voodoo 5. The double reverse from inside their 5 because we can't power it in. We lose. 2007- a week after the illegal forward propulsion call at Rutgers, grothe throws a pick returned for 6 and throws a pick in the end zone. We become the highest ranked team uconn has ever beaten. 2009- in the snow we take the lead 3 times in the 4th quarter only have the defense wilt every time. Game ends with the uconn kicker putting it through the uprights from 40+ for the win. 2010 (at home in tampa)- a week after beating Miami e can't put together enough offense in bobby eveld's first start as UConn beats us on a last second field goal and without scoring an offensive touchdown. They become the worst team in the history of the universe to go to a bcs bowl. 2011- a week after western michigan threw for over 400 yards at UConn the geniuses who ran our team call for a run heavy offense. We come out in the second half and open up the offense and drive down the field for a touchdown. We become run heavy again immediately. Uconn D scores a touchdown and they win. Again without scoring an offensive touchdown. I am now going to empty my liquor cabinet after recapping that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right, we did have the green helmets, but again, it was a combination of green and white, not all white. We're begging to get our asses handed to us with that uniform choice.
