  "account": "Tennessee football has announced they will wear orange jerseys, white helmets and pants in a special technicolor uniform matchup against Alabama at Neyland Stadium. This comes as part of a two-year agreement between both programs and the SEC. The Vols will wear crimson helmets and jerseys, while Alabama will wear crimson helmets and jerseys with white pants. This historic look is set to take place on the Third Saturday in October, specifically on October 17, 2026, at 3:30 p.m. ET on ABC. Tennessee's record in each uniform combination during the 2026 season stands at 2-1 with their traditional home uniforms of white helmets and pants and orange jerseys. They have won both of their games this season while wearing these uniforms, with victories over Furman and Kennesaw State. However, they suffered a 20-17 loss to Texas while wearing the usual home uniform. In the past, Tennessee has also worn white helmets, uniforms, and pants twice this season, winning both times against Georgia Tech and Arkansas. The Vols have a perfect 5-0 record in grey uniforms since 2022, with their latest win coming on October 3, 2025, against Auburn. This year's match will be the first color-on-color clash between the two rivals since 1970. Additionally, the Vols have their dark mode all-black uniforms available for future games, having a 5-2 record in black alternate uniforms since 2009.",
