Interesting, but how do the matching gloves keep the refs from seeing OLinemen tackle defensive players? Those usually get called.

Urban was known for the gloves as well. Used them in a VT game. Don’t know if it was routine or just with color-blind officials.

Always wanted to see another Defensive Lineman go the Jim Burt route to avoid holding.

funny thing for yrs now Penn State get called for holding when none is there the other teams hold most plays but dont get called unless the ref sees the knife in his hand!!even then its doubtful!!
