Yeah Spurrier was being his normal dick self and wouldn't let LSU wear white on the road or something, so we went with yellow.

I remember Spurrier saying in 1998 that he would not let LSU wear white because of how our fans treated him after the 1997 victory, but for some reason couldn't remember that LSU ended up wearing gold jerseys in that game. Guess I forgot about it--must have tried to block out the entire 1998 season from my memory, given our team's record that year...

Dinardo's fist year, we were able to get the NCAA to let us wear white at home only if the road team agreed. The first one to not agree was Vandy. Spurrier said he would agree to let us wear white if we would agree to let Florida wear white at home once, when they asked to wear white at home, we wore the Gold. We would have been dicks not to let UF wear white.

the road team has to allow the Home team to wear white, not the home teams choice. I think we had to wear purple at home for Vandy when Dinardo was here at some point.
