Just bought a gameday shirt for the West Virginia game. Is this game suppose to be a whiteout or did they just make the shirts white because wvu colors are similar on camera?

You know WVU wears white too?

Like every other team in America.

Sometimes they are white, and if you bought it from the bookstore, its probably pretty gay too.

Last white out was Florida in 03. We all know how well that worked out! Why would LSU want to do a white out? Purple or Gold out I could understand.

When I go to an away game, I usually wear the color that is most opposite of the opponent. Thought maybe they were trying to do this with the gameday shirts, but at home of course.

I guess ill fit in with the WVU fans if they used this logic

Lord I hope not. I hate white outs.

ETA:
Probably because the last time I remember it really being pushed was the Florida game in '01, and we all know how that turned out. At least I think it was the Florida game.

If Miles sticks with tradition regarding jerseys (like he usually does), LSU will be wearing purple jerseys for the WVU game.

I will participate in a color out game when said colored shirt is supplied on my seat. Until then, I wont.

I'm wearing purple Saturday, like always unless there is a gold shirt on my chairback

The last white out was the Florida game in 2003. There was no white out for the UF game in '01 and that game didn't rain either. The UF game you must be talking about is the '99 game because it rained that year.

You may be right...whichever year it was, it was miserable.

Why don't you just wear a gold shirt?

What group do you fall under...
1)Too cool to wear a gold shirt
2)Don't own a gold shirt

It was definitely 2003. The only game LSU lost that year. The LSU team played like they had never played the game before. LSU was a very heavy favorite. I remember by wife and I wearing purple because we thought it was such a stupid idea.
