South Carolina's garnet jerseys
have gone the way of the one-back
offense.
This year, as the Gamecocks
wage war in the Southeastern Conference,
they will be doing so in
newly-designed black jerseys.
The change was instituted because
there are at least four SEC
schools with jerseys which contain
some shade of garnet, while only
Vanderbilt has a uniform in which
black is a predominant color. In

rather than trie black.
The new jerseys still will have
"Gamecocks" written across the
front, with the number underneath.
Both will be white with a garnet
outline. The players' names also

the Gamecocks. The victory by Jo- 1

because the opponent he ^

The new uniforms were chosen j
by a select committee of coaches, I
university officials, Gamecock |
Club representatives, students and I
fans. Requests from fans helped ,
instigate the change, however, the
final decision was left up to the
onp.s who arp. aoincr to hp. wp.arina
the new uniforms ? the players.
Head coach Sparky Woods said
he liked the uniforms, "They look
good and have a distinguishing
look. These are exciting times as
we enter the SEC, and we would
like to build a new tradition."
When asked about a return to
the days of Black Magic, Woods
said, "I don't want to have to rely
on magic, but if it is there, I'll take
some of it."
