Our colors are officially Shocker yellow and black so no one.

Actually not sure if any other teams go with black and yellow. As mentioned, there’s a lot of black and gold and there are gold shades being used to that are very similar to our yellow. There should probably be some sort of differentiation between colors like WSU and Iowa vs UCF and Purdue.

Hate when they use yellow but call it gold. Iowa and Cal are dumb and/or colorblind.

SMU’s official colors were supposed to be Harvard red - Crimson - and Yale blue, but SMU has gotten away from that, so now it’s a more generic red and blue. We desperately need to get back to the Royal blue jerseys, though - ours are way to bright.

Memphis actually started out as blue and white, but after washing their uniforms on rocks in the Mississippi river always made their white uniforms grey, they just went with it.

Also, I've been to the zoo several times and have yet to see a blue and grey tiger.

Hey, I have one on my back porch, lol. In a concrete cast.

Also, we couldn't use real Tiger colors, b/c that means we would have to use ORANGE.

Memphis and Florida st wear “black and blue “after they play the University of Houston in whatever sport...

If you can’t beat them, then just take their coaching staff.

LSU comes to mind but I could swear there are others.

Temple and Alabama have the same red, even though we call it “cherry”.

Interesting. I've never seen a black and red bearcat either, whatever a bearcat is.

This is just a cold come back, I was trying to be nice, in a factual way

"Memphis actually started out as blue and white, but after washing their uniforms on rocks in the Mississippi river always made their white uniforms grey, they just went with it."

Are they still washing their uniforms on rocks in the Mississippi rive?

Yeah, it's really handy to FedExForum.

That's pretty big talk for somebody we've beaten the last 3 times we've played.

Louisville, Northern Illinois, Davidson

Aren't we all some version of a partial Grey at this point? It seems like every team has a Grey uniform these days.

It was Mud Island. The washing machines down there washing our jerseys converted us from white to grey. I'm just grateful it wasn't dooh dooh brown.

We'll develop modern plumbing one of these decades.

I absolutely love TX. Everything is big in TX. My best bro's parents are in TX just out of Longview on 10 acres and we ride ATVs, practice skeet shooting with our shotguns, etc. when we visit. It's a playground for men.
