I like the white-out that Penn State does every so often. But then, I guess white is one of PSU's colors.
Hate to say it, but you could give some of our crowd a shirt and they still wouldn't want to be engaged. Football games are for socializing and watching the band, not wearing a free t-shirt and cheering for the team!

Football games are for socializing and watching the band, not wearing a free t-shirt and cheering for the team! As I have said before, enthusiasm is contagious. It takes a group of dedicated fans, not peaple like the sportsmans club, but just everyday fans, to build excitement with the average, social fan. If the "cool thing to do" is just show up, that's what's going to happen, if it is to show up, be loud and intimidation for the other school, that's what they will do, or it will bring out the fans that want to do that. And there is nothing saying that both can't be there. I say, get all fans that want to stand and be loud their own sections, designate sections where you are expected to have fun, yell(in a sportsmanlike way) and let everyone else do what they want. I'll see what I can do.

I'm gonna go on record as saying that I don't care about the color gold. Lol. That is all.

I'm thinking seriously of ending my support of UNA. After more than 50 years of being a UNA FIRST kind of supporter, I'm tired of them shitting on the traditionalists who've always been there for them. If they think the millennials will be as fervent as the old timers, they are MUCH dumber than I originally thought. If they can't at least honor our colors (purple and GOLD) then they can shove it up their asses with a red hot poker.

You KNOW OUR uniforms are going to be purple and white or gray or black or pink with a touch of invisible gold just like it's been for the last 30 years. I'm tired of interlopers coming in here for a few years and destroying things that we lifers love.They must think they should come in and leave their "mark" be it good or bad.
Why should UNA be any different from most colleges who savor destroying traditions. If I didn't have Alabama and Auburn to fall back on, I might not be so vehement about it. Except for Auburn's brief, silly flirtation with colors, it's RED and WHITE at Bama and ORANGE and BLUE AT Auburn. The way it was meant to be, the way it SHOULD be.

Saw a Facebook post today. Folks from UNA had been to Bristol to pick up their ESPN trailer. Colors of the trailer: Purple and Antique or old gold. Same colors as athletic web site. Reckon it's official. Sitting here in my antique gold shirt...I can live with that.

My bet is it will still be the dreadful purple and white with a trace of GOLD under the armpits and in the crotch.

Could be there might already be a commitment to a specific color combo early on. But, I like the way things seem to be trending. If not in year one then maybe not much later we may see what we want. Just seeing the web site and the ESPN trailer makes me think there has been some thought toward a direction to go. I mean they could have kept the bright yeller for the site and used it for the trailer.

My guess would be that we won’t see a big change in uniforms this season, at least as far as the “base” home and road, simply because all of those were new last year. We might see a new alternate jersey, or helmet, or pair of pants. I’d love to be wrong though.

I wouldn't mind a gold helmet, or gold pants.
