I thought we always wear the white jersey for home openers. The only time we wear white for OOC home games IIRC

For some reason we're wearing plaid against N Texas.

I remember reading about that. We have to ask permission from OOC teams, and OSU didn't want to wear their dark(I think black)jerseys in LA September heat and humidity. So my guess is the decision is up to North Texas

When Gerry DiNardo became head coach in 1995, he vowed to change the NCAA jersey rule. After petitioning the rules committee of the American Football Coaches Association, he personally met with each member of the NCAA Football Rules Committee. DiNardo’s efforts were successful and the Tigers were allowed to wear white jerseys again beginning in 1995. A stipulation of the new rule was that the visiting team would have to give the home team permission to wear the white jerseys. The first team to deny LSU’s request was DiNardo’s former team, Vanderbilt.

Instead of going back to purple jerseys, the Tigers took to the field in new gold jerseys. The SEC later adopted a league rule stipulating that the home team has sole discretion in determining its jersey color. Nick Saban became LSU’s head coach in 2000 and continued the white jersey tradition, but with a twist. Saban decided that LSU would wear purple jerseys for all non-SEC games, except the home opener, a trend that current LSU coach Les Miles has continued.”

After seeing the atrocities that Notre Dame will be wearing when they play Miami at Soldier Field, anything is possible.

The team wore purple in the home opener in 04
but I remember OSU crying to wear white b/c of the
humidity. They didn't want to wear all black.
OSU bitched about it the whole week leading to the
game
