What year was that Nuts????


1998

ETA: He also planned to do it in 1996, but the week before the game was when we broke out the canary yellows against Vandy. Spurrier said he was concerned about his QBs not being able to pick out a receiver among the yellow and white jerseys, so he went ahead and had his team wear their normal blue home jerseys. He had secured LSU's permission to wear white in Gainesville in '96 as part of the agreement to let us wear white in Baton Rouge in '95. The same deal was in effect in '97 and '98, but this time he went ahead and had Florida wear white and we wore gold.

He'd be a damn fool if he went through with this...this would guarantee a loss for Bama.

You mean 1999.

1998 was in Florida, because you remember what happened in '97 in Tiger Stadium, right?...

When was the last time this happened? I remember Spurrier doing it while at Florida, but can't remember another instance.


I don't think SOS ever did it, I think asked us to wear purple in Gainesville once and if we didn't he wouldn't let us wear white in TS. Vandy refused to let us wear white once when DiNardo was HC, but I think that's it.

Oregon State did not want to wear their black jerseys in Louisiana in late summe


I think it was because they had new jersey's that year and wanted to debut the Black one's at home.

you people are dumbasses. LSU wore gold jerseys against vandy at home in 1996 and also wore gold AT Florida in 1998. Stop arguing about it.

...for us to wear white in Tiger Stadium this year since we are the road team. This is going to piss some people off.


Why did you do this Scoop, when you know that the Tigers decide what color jersey to wear at home?

Obviously, to try to rile up the precious and lovable Tiger fans of LSU.

Considering Saban coached here and knows he doesn't have to go to the NCAA for this, he wouldn't do such.
