Their isn't a school with the color green.

Lots of red-maroon-crimson.

Good deal of black is used.

Slight touch of blue, orange and gold.

So if you were going to pick one school to do a complete change in color. Who would it be?


If I was going to pick one school it would be M-State. Nothing personal, just feel you guys could improve more so than any other school with your colors.

When is the last time a major program changed their colors? I can't think of any

It is the official color of AU recruiting, if that counts.

Florida. The orange is terrible. Honestly, the blue they use is ugly as well.

Auburn at least makes the most of a bad situation by using a burnt orange, and only using it as an accent color on the uniforms.

Orange is a terrible color for clothes of any kind. The "All Auburn, All Orange" campaign was the worst thing that ever happened to college affiliated clothing. Props to those of you who didn't cave and held on to your stately navy blue shirts.

Maroon is doo doo brown and anyone with it as a main color should change it. It's an eyesore.

I'm not a fan of the maroons. One of those could be changed.

Kentucky Blue >>>>> All though

Not sure, but Missouri needs to ditch their fricking arena football uniforms.

This is the SEC dammit.

Tennessee. That shade of orange should be illegal.

South Carolina. Or at least their logo. They have the ugliest helmets in the league.

OK, if someone has to change, lets set aside the unique ones first.

- LSU's Purple/gold is unique.
- Kentucky is the only one that uses just blue/white
- Tennessee is the only one with just orange & white
- Ole Miss is blue and red

Which ones are the same/close?

- Alabama, MSU, A&M, and Arky are all some sort of red and white
- Auburn and Florida are both blue and orange
- Georgia and USC are some sort of red and black
- Mizzou and Vandy are gold and black

To get a set of truly unique color scheme/combo, 6 of the 14 teams have to change. Here is my completely biased choices for who gets to keep their colors.

1) Alabama - completely homeristic choice, plus original SEC member and historically most successful SEC football program.
2) Auburn - Has historically more success than Florida and more recent BCS Championship.
3) Vandy - only because they have been in SEC longer than Mizzou
4) Georgia - longer in SEC.

New colors for the rest.

MSU - Brown and green. (I'm imagining a pasture)
A&M - Purple and white. (all male cheerleaders)
Florida - yellow and green (sunshine and golf courses)
Arkansas - pink and white (pigs y'all)
Mizzou - black and white (kind of like forgotten old reruns of I love Lucy)
USC - Red and yellow - just to make it even more confusing between them and Southern Cal.

LSU should drop the yeller and blue for something a little more unique.

South Carolina should add green and Mississippi State should change to straight pink and gold.

LSU's frilly colors are more suited for having high tea than a gridiron clash. Very unfortunate for them.
