The Tennessee Volunteers were the proud owners of the best uniforms in college football this season. Their new Nike Smokey Gray uniforms will be kept for 2016 much to the delight of fans.

It was the color combo that the Vols won in their huge come-from-behind victory over Georgia in October and it looks like it will make a comeback for this season.
"They were named the uniform of the year, and I thought it was great," Jones told a Chattanooga crowd, according to 247Sports. "And I think it really was symbolic of the state of Tennessee. Actually, I didn't say this in the car down here, but I thought about it in my mind, when were driving here there was a shot of the mountains, and it actually resembled our helmet. Nike actually went up into the Smoky Mountains and actually developed that Smokey Gray for us based off of the mountains."
Hopefully we will get to see the Smokey Grays more than once a season and certainly more than once every other year against Georgia.
