What the hell??? They told their crowd to wear white in order to "white out" Vanderbilt. Well, it was obviously Penn State who started that tradition, right?
According to Wikipedia, Penn State started it in 2004.
rained a LOT, so wasn't a very successful "white out" due to all the different color raincoats people were wearing.
according to rule, the home team has to get permission from the visitor "in writing" before the season starts in order to wear white.
the SEC now has a rule that no SEC team will deny another SEC team's request to wear white at home.
under DiNardo, we wore white every home game unless we were denied.
Since '00 we generally follow this guideline:
white for all SEC home games
white for home opener (regardless of opponent)
purple for rest of home OOC schedule (but usually will request white for a big name opponent)
