I noticed this in NCAA 2005.

Is it a heat thing?

When have you seen them where anything other than white. It's rare.

This game confused me. I used to think Tennessee was overrated. Now I'm thinking LSU is. Va Tech is loving life tonight.

LSU had to do one of two things in the second half. Play offense or defense. They did neither.

What a suck job.

Props to the QB change for TN. Lotta LSU fans/hurricane victims will continue to go to bed crying tonight.

they had to yank the kid from Oregon and get the kid from California in for Tenn to come back.


why doesnt Tenn produce their own QB's?

I've always wondered this myself. Probably a combination of the heat and the purple, although I do recall seeing a few games in which they wore the purple jerseys.

If I were a coach playing them at home, I would purposely wear my team's away jerseys just to make them dig through the storage bins to bust out those pussy looking threads. Like totally fuck with their heads. Trainers and all.

And while we're at it, what's the deal with Tennecheat's away unis (all white, not the ones worn last night)? All the numbers and lettering are outlined in black but then no black on the helmet. Fucking horrendous. Makes me want to puke.

LSU use to wear white every home game but the NCAA made a rules change that said the visiting team must wear white a while back ago and reversed it sometime in the early 90s.

LSU is the reason why they reversed the rule. I think LSU played their first white home uni game of the new era versus Auburn in 1995

Edit: After doing research I dont know if the ncaa ever had a rule on it.

Since the home team gets first pick on uniforms, that isnt exactly an option.

My bad. Read it wrong. Thought you meant their home.

I could be wrong but I think a team or two has done that to them.
