UAB Blazers Unveil New Look for 2024 Season
As the countdown to the college football season begins, fans and players alike are buzzing with anticipation. This offseason has been particularly exciting, marked by a flurry of uniform reveals across the country. Among the latest to join the trend are the UAB Blazers, who unveiled their new look for the 2024 season.
One of the most striking changes in UAB's new uniform lineup is the absence of the gold helmet, a staple of the Blazers' identity for much of their history. Last season, the gold helmet was already showing signs of decline, making appearances in only two out of twelve games. This year, the gold accents on the white uniforms, such as the numbers and 'UAB' lettering, have been replaced with a bold green, signaling a significant shift in the team’s aesthetic.
Perhaps the most notable addition to UAB’s uniform arsenal is the green helmet. Not seen since 1994, the green helmet is making a comeback, featuring a striking white dragon logo. This addition is part of a trio of helmets introduced for the season:
Green Helmet: Featuring a white dragon logo.
White Helmet: Showcasing a green dragon logo, worn five times in the previous season.
White Helmet with Lime Green and Black Dragon Logo: A fresh design that has yet to make its on-field debut.
