Florida vs. East Carolina: Gators wearing orange uniforms — tops and pants?

Florida will apparently wear all-orange uniforms — with orange jerseys and orange pants to go along with the program's traditional orange helmets — for the first time in decades against East Carolina, according to tweets from various Gators players.

The prospect of all-orange duds has been raised occasionally by fans, but has never transpired, though Florida has worn orange uniforms — the program's primary color for home uniforms for much of the 1980s — four times since 2010. Most recently, the Gators donned orange for their 2015 Birmingham Bowl victory against East Carolina.

But Florida has, at minimum, never worn all-orange in the modern era, and only pre-World War II combinations with orange tops and tan pants come close to such a combination in the program's history.
