Seventeen years ago today, Auburn wore the first throwback uniform in team history.⁣ ⁣ As the Tigers hosted Vanderbilt for homecoming in 2007, Auburn honored the 50th anniversary of the 1957 National Championship team. Auburn wore their white jerseys for the home game, changed the facemasks from navy to grey, and removed the AU decals off the helmets to best match the uniforms worn during the '57 season.⁣ ⁣ Auburn's 1957 team wore long-sleeved sweater-style jerseys that season, with the traditional Northwestern stripes donning only the white tops.

The Tigers honored the late Pat Sullivan with grey facemasks once again and the #7 on the left side of every player's helme...
