I know. Imagine how many points we could have scored in the whites.

We beat the brakes off them after a slow start, and coming off a huge win. If we had started fast and the score was the same, no one would say shite.

Is a myth that somehow refuses to die a peaceful death. There are plenty of games where LSU wore the classic purple Jersey combo (with gold pants and helmets) and exceeded expectations. Cf. Texas A&M in 1986, 1988, 1990; Georgia in 1986; Miss State in 2007; Georgia Tech in 2000 Peach Bowl, etc.

And no one ever mentions other Tiger athletic teams wearing purple. I remember seeing the basketball team make a Final Four wearing nothing but purple (1986) and a baseball team in 1997 win a World Series clad exclusively in purple jerseys.

Where is the link that we're wearing purple vs Vandy? This isn't the first time someone has mentioned it.
