The ONLY way this would not be the case would be if Wisky got to choose colors and decided to frick with LSU and chose to wear white making LSU go purple or something "special." Since this is a good natured OOC game and not some dickhead in the SEC, there's 0% chance of that happening.


Explain the Oregon State game jersey decision in 2004.

I'm nearly 100% certain OSU was able to choose game color back in 2004 and they chose white because they saw it as an advantage to force LSU to wear purple at home when they usually did not like to and because their stupid unis were all black.

Oh wait...I'm right.

The only other time LSU was forced to wear its colored jerseys at home was in 2004, when Oregon State did not want to don its black jerseys because of that suffocating late summer humidity in Louisiana. So LSU wore its purple unis for the nationally televised game, and the then-defending BCS champion Tigers coached by a guy named Nick Saban pulled out a 22-21 victory in overtime. Ironically, lightning delayed the game for almost an hour and it was played on a sloppy field after a heavy storm moved through.


You were saying?

Oregon State did not want to wear black in the late summer Louisiana humidity so they denied LSU's request to wear white.
