Uni stats heading into SEC Play

Through 19 games in the 2015 non-conference season, the Bulldogs have posted a 15-4 record and have worn 7 of their 17 uniform combinations.  So far, there have been no huge surprises, but a multitude of small ones, as expected.  My preseason predictions as to what the 17 uniform combinations have proved fairly accurate thus far.  The following 7 combinations have been revealed:


1. Black Pullover with Black Pants 1-0 Record
3. Maroon 80's with White Pants 1-2 Record
4a. Cream Unis with Maroon Hat 2-0 Record
4b. Cream Unis with Cream Hat 1.5-1 Record
10. Wool Throwbacks 2-0 Record
13. Maroon MS with White Pants 2-1 Record
15. White MS 2.5-0 Record
17. Pinstripes 2-0 Record

TRENDS: Despite the large number of combinations, the Bulldogs have established certain jerseys as having places in the "uniform rotation".  On Fridays, the Bulldogs wear the Maroon MS jersey.  On Saturday, they wear a random combinations (Unis worn on Saturday so far have been the Wool Throwbacks, White MS, and Pinstripes).  On Sunday, the Bulldogs wear the Cream uniforms, rotating each week between the maroon and cream hats.  During midweek games, the Bulldogs generally wear the Maroon 80's uniforms.  They also wore the Black jerseys with Black pants when they had two midweek games this past week.

WHAT'S NEXT: So, the question begs, what will be the next combo revealed?  Unless they unveil a new combo on Saturday (which isn't all that unlikely), we already know the answer.  Tuesday is St. Patrick's Day, and the Bulldogs have Eastern Illinois scheduled for that afternoon.  Some Photoshop magic shows that the 6th combo from the left in the picture above is a white pullover jersey with green accents paired with a green hat.  So that will be unveiled on Tuesday, as either combo #8 or #9.

The Bulldogs have yet to play a road game, and therefore have yet to have a chance to wear these road gray unis.  These will likely be worn for the first time next weekend (March 20-22), along with two other new combos involving gray pants, I would imagine.

Here is the full list of the 10 combos yet to be worn:

2. Camo Jersey with Gray Pants
5. Maroon MS with Gray Pants
6. St Patrick's Day
7. Maroon 80's with Gray Pants
8. Black Pullover with White Pants
9. Maroon MS with Pinstripe Pants
11. Maroon MS with 4th Pants
12. Camo Jersey with White Pants
14. Gray
16. Maroon 80's with Pinstripe Pants
