Georgia Southern wearing special 'Traditions' uniform on Saturday (Photos)

Georgia Southern's homecoming game will feature special uniforms.

The Eagles are wearing a gray "Traditions" uniform against Idaho on Saturday.

"For this year's Homecoming, we designed an alternate uniform that honors Georgia Southern University's traditions with a focus on the future," Georgia Southern athletic director Tom Kleinlein said in a statement. "In creating a new alternate uniform every year, we're building a new tradition."

According to the school's release, players will have the choice of five different colors of cleats. The best part of the uniform is the helmet. The metallic look is sharp, as is the logo on one side and the number on the other. It's almost enough to override the texturing that Adidas has on the gray uniforms. The pattern has become a (pretty ugly) Adidas staple.

The back of the helmet also says "One More Time." It's a phrase that Florida fans have not uttered about Georgia Southern.
