Scarlet or White Jersey's on Jan. 7th.

When is the last time we have worn scarlet jerseys in a bowl game?

Alamo Bowl? Forgot about that. Thanks

Scarlet. Forget all the other numbers, we're undefeated vs Les Miles in bowls where OSU is wearing Scarlet.

I'm hoping you guys were scarlet b/c as mentioned before we traditionally where white.

 

[Bleed S & G]

Scarlet, let LSU wear there whites

Throwbacks :)

Last time LSU played in the BCS Championship with White Jerseys

And the opponent had red/crimson, you saw a lot of this.

Hey LSU_Ed... Last time you played an opponent wearing "red" it didn't turn out so well. I vote Scarlet.

[crazy young fan] Awesome!!1!1! - a blackout in a bowl game on New Orleans would be something that town hasn't seen in like, forever!1!!1! [/crazy young fan]



or maybe 6 days (Georgia's wearing black for the Sugar Bowl)

Saints home jerseys are black. Nothing new there to New Orleanians.

I don't think the color of the jersey matters...LSU often wears purple jerseys for our out of conference games, which means we're used to blowing out the opposition when we wear purple. No worries. The last time in purple was a 58-10 victory that wasn't as close as the score indicates.

OTOH, White jerseys usually for SEC games, which, as you may have heard, we tend to take right down to the last play or so. One way or another.

I like 'em both.

Now, as to tOSU, I always think of the Buckeyes in scarlet. But ya'll do what you think is best. It's not a fashion show, it's a football game.

The last time a LSU played a team wearing a shade of red this year looked like this:

:tongue2:

Glad to have all the Tiger fans around... it's going to be a fun month talking with you guys!

EDIT: Dang, BUCKiWILD was quicker on the draw.

If Im Tress i just tell the team that they gotta work hard and prepare right and if they do, they get to wear their scarlet

 

[Dryden]

How about LSU is shirts and OSU is skins?

Anything which reduces holding Vernon Gholston is OK in my book.

Point-Counterpoint

• I really don't give a rip about the "white was great until last year" thing. Maybe it's just me, but I see it as white having been both good and bad, and therefore proven to be irrelevant.
• I very nearly voted White because it would put LSU in the uniform that they wear so rarely. But that might not be a good thing.
• I went with Scarlet for one simple reason: To complete the cycle of redemption.

The team can earn redemption for last January by simply winning this game. Where that is concerned, the jerseys are laundry.

But the players already won their last game in white this year. They lost their last game in Scarlet. Just for my own personal memory bank, I want to see Kirk Barton and Dionte Johnson (and others if they should chose to go) as winners in their last appearance in Scarlet.

Go Bucks!

I really like the point I bolded. In the grand scheme of things I really don't care which color jersey the Buckeyes wear but there is just something about the Scarlet jersey that personifies Ohio State football.

Not to mention the intimidation factor

Can tOSU wear a shade of red that ESPN announcers think they wear?
