UAB Uniform Schedule 2026: Every Jersey and When the Blazers Wear It

UAB has worn five different combinations in six games, and the one rule we can see so far is that the Blazers do not mind wearing white at home. This is the full UAB 2026 uniform schedule: the green and white jerseys, the metallic gold and green helmets, every game played so far, including the all green look in the 33-14 win over Samford on October 3, and the expected look for the rest of the season. We update this page as each combination is confirmed.

The UAB 2026 Uniform Sets

UAB's colors are green and old gold, and the Blazers use all three main pieces, green, white and gold, in just about every combination. The pants are where it gets busy: white, gold, green, gold and green again in five games. The BLAZERS wordmark runs down the side of the pants, and the gold helmet has been the default.

The surprise is the white at home. UAB wore the green jersey for the home opener against ULM, then came out in white with gold pants for the Friday night Salute to Service game against Navy at Protective Stadium. It worked. The Blazers beat Navy 24-20 for the first time in program history.

Green or White at Home?

That is the open question for the rest of the UAB schedule. The Blazers have played three home games and worn two different jerseys: green over gold against ULM, white over gold against Navy, then all green against Samford. UAB has not published a season uniform grid, so the grid above lists both for every home date. The road is simpler. UAB has worn white in both road games so far, under the gold helmet at Illinois and the green helmet at Louisiana. We will add a star as each combination is confirmed.

The Bottom Line

Five games into 2026, UAB has worn green and white jerseys, gold and green helmets and white, gold and green pants, with the gold helmet in three games and the green helmet in two. The white over gold look against Navy was the best of the bunch and came with the biggest win of the season. The question left is which jersey the Blazers pick for the rest of the home schedule, Homecoming against East Carolina in particular. The grid above has every date, and we add a star as each uniform is confirmed.
