Florida Gators to wear throwback uniforms for homecoming game

A fan favorite alternative jersey combination within the Florida Gators fanbase has easily been the 1960s throwback look. Florida last wore their throwback alternative combo against the Vanderbilt Commodores in 2021, which ended in a 42-0 victory for the Gators. It’s been four years since UF last wore this jersey combination, but that will change this season.

The Florida Gators are bringing back the throwbacks

The official Florida Gators X account (formerly known as Twitter) shared on Monday evening that the team will sport its 1960 throwback jerseys for its homecoming game against Mississippi State on October 18. UF has worn different combinations of throwbacks. This year, the team will wear orange helmets with the interlocking ‘UF’ logo, throwback blue jerseys, and white throwback pants. The team shared the news on X with a video that includes sophomore linebacker Myles Graham, showing off the threads. You can watch that video below.
