Instead of the gold dome helmet with the large GT, recently, in a game against the Virginia Cavaliers, Georgia Tech wore a classy throwback white helmet with triple stripes and smaller and outlined logo to go with a brighter jersey. Even cooler is that the whole day was apparently a throwback day and hotdogs only cost a quarter or something similar.
9. TCU Horned Frogs Home Jersey

Purple is such an interesting color; pair it up with the wrong color like green or baby blue and you have a sissy looking team but pair it up with black and what a dangerous look. The design is rather basic (except for a rather cool design on the trims that is so barely noticable) but its the colors that sell it. Plus, nothing was quite as cool as watching LaDainian Tomlinson breaking off huge runs wearing this and his mysterious dark visor.
8. Auburn Tigers Home Jersey
Auburn's jersey mixes a strong, unique color selection with both oldschool and modern design to make one hell of jersey. The triple stripe look, so popular with teams with lots of history is modernized with a wide middle stripe and the helmet's white color is great contrast with the darker jersey.
7. Vanderbilt Commodores Home Jersey
Gold is such a great color for a football team but it seems only a handful use it as a primary color. While both Purdue and Vanderbilt use the gold/black color combination Vanderbilt gets the nod here because the Vanderbilt star on the helmet is one of the rare logos that is both original and not tacky.
6. Texas Longhorns Away Jersey

5. Stanford Cardinals Home Jersey
It seems rare nowadays to find a team with a traditionally losing history to have an old-fashioned design instead of some new, crazy one (see any MAC football team). Stanford has a classy approach to the popular red and black look that a simple jersey with striped pants and simplistic, but sharp white helmet. Hopefully it keeps this look as it seems many of the PAC-10 teams have adopted ugly modern designs (Oregon, Oregon State, Cal...)
4. Hawaii Warriors Home Jersey
Now black and dark green might not be the first colors that come to mind when discussing Hawaii, but it does make for one fierce football look. Combined with more modern look, all the Warriors are missing is a hardhitting defense to go with the dark look. Also neat is how those Hawaii Warrior triangles make their way subtly on the jersey.
3. UGA Bulldogs Home Jersey
The bulldogs jersey is no-nonsense look that goes well with their hard hitting style. The jersey is very basic and the only style is on the three stripes on the pants and the old-fashioned one striped helmet with the big G.
2. LSU Tigers Home Jersey
Nothing says New Orleans and nearby Baton Rouge like the colors of Mardi Gras. The jersey design is very simple and consistent throughout using a three stripe look. It also gets points for being one of the few white home jerseys. The only thing I don't like about the jersey is that its logo is too busy with the tiger much detailed for such a small part of the helmet.
1. Tulane Green Wave Home Jersey
Tulane sports the modern look made famous by the Denver Broncos and uses the classic color combination of green and white. The jersey is very sharp looking and Tulane also has one of the best looking logos in football, if you ask me.
Honorable Mentions:
Virginia Tech Hokies Home Jersey - I really like the jersey but when the started doing that one-sleeve look with that ugly orange color a couple years ago, well, I just couldn't put them on this list.
Iowa Hawkeyes Home Jersey - Their design is very neat with the blue-collar, hard-hitting black-and-yellow style but it since it was so obliviously stolen from the Steelers I just couldn't put it on the list.
Miami Hurricanes Jerseys - However stylized and interesting these jerseys are, I just hate the Hurricanes too much to but them on a top ten list. Plus, depending on my mood, the jersey's can be butt-ugly.

God dude. Ga Tech jersey's are horrendous.
says the UGA kid from Athens... I can't hate on UGA's jerseys (other than the God-awful ones they wore 'in disguise' for there 2009 beat-down from the Florida Gators (black helmet / looked like a bootleg grambling).
Georgia Tech's throwbacks are NICE though, i don't see what's not to like...
