Tonight, the Bulldogs will finish the season in the 2014 Orange Bowl, facing the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets.  The Bulldogs are wearing brand-new white versions of the DWS 100 unis in the game, forcing GT to wear navy for the first time this year.

Last night, MSU AD Scott Stricklin tweeted out a picture teasing white throwbacks for MSU in the Orange Bowl.  A full announcement came this morning, with an almost 100% approval rating.  Fans love the new unis, and for good reason.  They'd been asking for them the entire season, with the answer being the same every time: next year.  Finally, it seems Adidas got their stuff together in time for the Orange Bowl.

These differ slightly from the immensely popular maroon unis that were worn 6 times throughout the season, winning every game in which they were worn.  The helmet design is the same: maroon shell, no stripe, and white facemask.  However, the Orange Bowl helmet will have a sharp matte finish (as opposed to the shiny finish on the DWS 100 helmet).  Also, in place of the DWS 100 patch worn on the maroon unis, an Orange Bowl patch will be worn.  The photos do not show them, but Stricklin has confirmed that the uniforms will have TV (shoulder) numbers.
