Usually we only wear purple against team we're planning on beating like 56-10. So I'm all for it.

I thought the current rule was, Home team must wear colors, visiting team must wear white unless an alternate arrangement is agreed to prior to the season.

i don't think in SEC contests you have to get the permission of the road team anymore. You just tell them what color jersey you're wearing and they have to pack the opposite.

Uniforms. In accordance with NCAA football rules, the home team shall wear dark jerseys and the visiting team shall wear white jerseys. White jerseys may be worn by the home team when the teams have agreed before the season. (The Athletics Directors have agreed to always grant a home team’s request to wear white jerseys, in which case the visiting team shall wear dark jerseys.)
