Now if we could just get a snazzy blue matching helmet we would
defiantly be the schnizz.

*GAINESVILLE, Fla. –* If you have been to a game at The Swamp on a hot
and humid Florida afternoon, you know how the sweat pours.
Now imagine being on the field in a helmet and pads. The Gators hope
to get a little relief next season.
In the latest attempt to improve its product line of jerseys supplied
to college football teams, Nike has unveiled a new type of jersey
being used only by select schools. The jerseys could also be used in
the NFL one day.
Texas wore the jerseys at practice this season and Alabama wore them
in the BCS National Championship Game against Notre Dame.
The Gators will wear them next season and take a test run in the
jerseys this spring at practice and in the Orange & Blue Debut spring
game April 6.
“It’s durable, it has more breathability and it lightens the weight on
the athletes,’’ said Jason Baisden, UF’s football equipment manager.
Internet reports surfaced Tuesday that the Gators are changing
uniforms but that is somewhat misleading.
There are two notable differences in the new Florida jerseys from Nike:
--The fonts for the numbers have changed to reflect the font used in
UF’s official athletics brand identity.
--The sides of the jerseys are constructed of a mesh material instead
of a solid material, which increases breathability to help reduce heat.
