I suspect, but do not know, that the yellow/gold color is the same but that it looked a lot different in old photos/TV broadcasts. I would like to know the answer to this, too.



90s



Today

Pull up any photos from each era and you can clearly see a difference in hues.

I call it "bright gold" what LSU currently uses.

I prefer it. It matches with Mardi Gras "gold" and it's what I am use to seeing.

IMO, LSU has the most distinctive uniform in CFB, or atleast one of them, so no changes


FWIW I despise the Pro Combat crap but what can you do?

Uh, you've picked a completely misrepresentative picture of the current uniforms, in my estimation. There is a lot glare in that photo.

Here is a better shot from the Cotton Bowl last year taken:



Seems virtuallly indistinguishable from the 1999 photo:



Perhaps a tad lighter and glossier, but certainly not this:
