The Drinkwitz era kicks off with a (mostly) classic look: black shirt, gold pants, black helmets with the Tiger oval on them.
The official Missouri football twitter might need some bifocals because there’s no squinting necessary to see the beautiful gold pants on this week’s model, Tyler Badie (or is it the newly-uno-bestowed Joshuah Bledsoe?)
*squints* are those gold pants ⁉️#MIZ x #NewZou pic.twitter.com/U3VXnCJTKr

A closer look reveals one of my favorite details of recent seasons...

Per Dave Matter, Eli Drinkwitz’s team will be wearing the same pants-shirt combo that his two predecessors wore in their respective home openers.
Your uniform trivia for the day: Mizzou also wore gold pants in Odom's first home game as head coach in 2016 vs. Eastern Michigan and Pinkel's first home game vs. Bowling Green in 2001.

Isn’t pants-and-shirts day just the best, y’all?
...and if they haven’t already, I hope they’ve launched the white helmets into the sun.
