[QUOTE="DaDodd, post: 887892, member: 4163"] You had me until this. My whole Tech uniform history was to show that white at home is our standard. Only one white home game? I think we are just on opposite sides of preference. I do agree that the schedule may sound strict and I’m willing to throw as WGW, WWG, or GWW in there every once in a while. But only on rare occasions. You mentioned teams like LSU and the Cowboys. LSU wears YWY for every game except two. YPY for out of conference home games/home openers and some other special combo for one game. LSU started wearing white at home in the 50s because they were tired of Tech wearing it. (Tech was really good and they were jealous) So they wore white at home against tech so that they had to wear a color. In 1958 they won the NC and they stuck with white at home stating it was good luck. And the cowboys predominantly always wear white at home. Yes they wear alternates for a few games but it’s only a few. If the Cowboys started wearing navy tops for every home game but one, there would be an uproar from the fans. Tennessee where’s black or smoky grays once per year. Oklahoma wears their cream once maybe twice a year. I’m not against one or two game alternates. I just don’t like different combos every game. It’s hard to solidify a brand if it changes every game. (Oregon has already claimed the brand of once a done combos) GWG is our identity and brand. Overall thanks for you input. I appreciate the pics! [/QUOTE]
