Tennessee Sports
This is not Rocky Top, but talk UT Sports here anyway.
I was going to post....ya'll seem to be forgettin about Carolina.
That's what I was thinking too. Everyone is giving the props to Georgia but I am pretty sure the history of Blackouts in the SEC originated in Columbia, SC.
BTW - Didn't South Carolina technically do a "black-out" once or twice before Georgia ever tried it?
We have once or twice, but that is totally nowhere near the point. We have been wearing black jerseys on and off for several years now, and even solely wore black throughout much of the 90s. Joe Morrison made the black jerseys popular in the 80s.

Black jerseys may be closer than I thought, according to Al "THE MAN" Wilson...
Wilson said he didn't ask the Kiffins many questions, but he told them a few things.
"I told them about the tradition,'' Wilson said, "and I told them what I felt about it and what I wanted them to bring back to the university.''
Wilson said he's ready to get behind whatever changes the Kiffins feel they need to make - even if it meant going away from some traditions.
"Black jerseys? I'm a realist about the situation,'' Wilson said. "It's a new age and a new day, and these kids love to play in black and do different things.
"I'm all for it; it helps the kids get a different type of energy.''
Tennessee has not issued any information indicating the Vols would wear black, but Wilson said he has thought about the concept before.
