On Black Friday, the Georgia Bulldogs will host the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets. Will they wear black jerseys?
Georgia Bulldogs will face Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets on Friday night at Sanford Stadium. Georgia fans are divided on whether the team would wear black jerseys during the game, which has significant ramifications for the season. Fans are thrilled about the possibility of different outfits, despite no official confirmation.
Under head coach Kirby Smart, every senior class has worn black at least once. In 2016, Kirby’s first season as Georgia coach, the Bulldogs defeated Louisiana 35-21.
The game at Sanford Stadium would not have been memorable without the uniforms. Georgia wore black twice during the 2020 covid season, marking the first and only occasion in program history. Georgia used black throwback jerseys during games against Mississippi State in Athens and Cincinnati in the Peach Bowl.
The black jersey game versus Mississippi State marked the debut of Bulldog quarterback JT Daniels, who threw for 401 yards and four touchdowns. It also marked the start of Georgia’s historic 42-game regular-season winning streak. Georgia’s stunning 24-21 Peach postseason victory over Cincinnati was the first time they wore black jerseys in a postseason game.
Georgia is expected to wear black against Tech, as the game is scheduled for Black Friday. Black Friday has lost much of its meaning throughout the years owing to internet
bargains, so why not make this a Black Friday to remember? Giving fans an extra cause to cheer may be beneficial, especially since the game comes the day after Thanksgiving meal.
