GPG should NEVER be worn at home, thanks to the abysmal performance by LSU football in that scheme during the NCAA mandate during the period of 1983-94. We went 2-5 at home in Stovall's last year, leading to his dismissal, and 9-16 in home purples during Hallman's four years, leading to his firing. So no.


Very selective in your choice of coaches and years. You conveniently leave out Arnsparger's 3 consecutive winning seasons, 1984-6 (including an SEC championship and two Sugar Bowls) as well as Archer's 1st two winning seasons, 1987-88 (which included an SEC co-championship).

Conversely, LSU primarily wearing white jerseys didn't do very well at the end of DiNardo's tenure, nor in the mid-70s lull under Cholly Mac when they had back-to-back non-winning seasons.

where do you see we're going GPG? Not seeing it on IG.

Same question. I have googled and looked and there is nothing for what either LSU or WKU are wearing (if the Hilltoppers are wearing white, it's pretty much a given we will wear purple ones).

Exactly. That's why I believe we're wearing traditional G-W-G tomorrow, as per usual for Senior Night games. Whenever there's a variation in uniforms, we would have known about it, probably yesterday.

For what it's worth, found this on the WKU football website. You may be right about us wearing the senior night whites. Good thing I washed my gold shorts and white polo today.

GWG is iconic and I agree should be the primary but I like all white and WPW also much more than I like GPG
