because tradition holds that we wear white.
Our White Jerseys with Gold helmets and Pants is iconic.

I know it's tradition...but HOW or WHY did that become tradition. Does anyone have an answer other than "it's always been that way"

And to cement that in, during that 90’s era when the NCAA mandated that the home team wear dark jerseys instead of choosing, those were not the best years for LSU football. So wearing the purple jerseys for every home game is associated with mediocre football.
The purple jerseys have been codified as a change-of-pace at home against cupcakes.
