LOOK: Georgia Tech Reveals "Ghost" Uniforms for matchup with Bowling Green
Georgia Tech usually debuts their uniform combination on Thursdays, but they took it to a whole new level today.
The Yellow Jackets have a matchup with Bowling Green on Saturday and they are going to be wearing their new "Ghost" uniforms when they do it.
Part of the Adidas “Ghost Uniforms” series, the Yellow Jackets' newest uni set features a glow-in-the-dark black jersey and black pants with white and gold numerals, logos, and piping, paired with a gold helmet that includes a black interlocking GT logo with a white outline and black and white striping (Per Georgia Tech PR).
Georgia Tech wore black jerseys for home games under legendary alumnus and head coach Bill Curry in the 1980s. The Black Watch defense was coined for the Yellow Jackets’ ACC-leading units under defensive coordinator Bill Lindsey in 1984 and ’85. Lindsey dubbed the most prominent players on his Tech defenses the “Black Watch,” in honor of the famed Scottish military forces that took the same name beginning in the 1700s.
Notable Black Watch defenders included defensive back Cleve Pounds, linebacker Ted Roof, and defensive end/outside linebacker Pat Swilling, a first-team all-American who went on to be a five-time NFL Pro Bowler with the New Orleans Saints, Detroit Lions, and Oakland Raiders, and was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 2009.
