Arkansas Almost had your team colors in late 1909, here's the link for you to see what could have been Arkansas' team colors.

Just a short video and write up. My wife is from Thibodaux and since both my parents passed away last summer we may be moving back down that way.

I've had her for 29 years so I would say so. Cackbay, man does that bring back old memories.

looks like ARky has been trying to be like LSU for almost 100 years.

Do you know the L S U team colors 100 years ago, the photo I have of them some were wearing bowties and was in black and white from the 1910 program I have of Arkansas vs LSU. I'm not here to be rude by any means, I'm here to share history with you.

What is the story about our colors being Blue & White, but they could only find purple and gold uniforms in time for the first game?

Yep, I saw the mis spelling after I sent it. Sorry about that and it is between Thibodaux and Vacherie.

They never used green because they were playing Tulane that day...

used purple and gold ribbons only because the green was unavailable due to mardi gras
