Couldn't agree more. Or just let Peterson wear a jersey for us again...

It does to me too, but it's actually a darker purple than on the rest of the uniform.

While it does indeed look rather black but I've heard that some dark shades of purple can actually appear black.

Who knew?

It looks far better than the normal horrific suggestions, but it's just too much white for me. Monochrome unis just don't look good to me. Perhaps a yellow helmet would help as suggested previously.

I'm still such a traditionalist that I don't think there should even be "occasional" unis. Our current unis are perfect.

I'm pretty sure it is purple. That is the helmet from the 2007(?) game at Tulane. I think it was hurricane katrina relief related.


We wore purple jerseys

That uniform with the gold helmet we always have would be sharp for road games.

isn't this too Oregon-ish for the traditionalist in our fanbase?

ABSO-FREAKING-LUTELY!!!

Love the crisp and clean all whites. Not the "combat" version of the Auburn game 2 years ago.....but just white up and down

If LSU let Nike get creative, they could come up with some sweet combinations.

It would never happen from a tradition standpoint but it would look better than any of the fiascos LSU has thrown out there - purple pants, gold shirts, etc.

The stripes on the helmet are purple, but they are a much darker shade of purple than the jersey...so basically they don't match. I wish they'd lighten the helmet stripes to match the purple elsewhere in the uniform.

And also, the white/white/white would look fantastic.

That's actually doable if done right. You'd have gold helmet, gold jersey, white pants. It would mirror the old baseball uniform in that regard.

The problem is that the few times we tried it, we wore jerseys without stripes and really awkward number shadows. If the jersey looked like a continuation of the helmet (same striping on shoulders) you'd be in business.

I like the all white (except for the helmets) WAY BETTER than the purple jersey tradition for our weak-opponent at home game...
