ATHENS, Ga. (AP) — Georgia has announced the Bulldogs will debut a new all-white look as an alternate uniform when they play Western Kentucky at home on September 12.

Georgia’s uniform traditionally emphasizes its primary colors, red and black, with silver trim. The new uniform will feature white helmets, with red and black stripes, white jerseys with black numbers and red trim, and white pants.

The Bulldogs had their first first fall practice on Aug. 5. Players say they were shocked when two veterans, tight end Lawson Luckie and defensive back KJ Bolden, were selected to unveil the new uniform in a team meeting.
