If I'm not mistaken, I've always heard that Clemson was founded by an Auburn grad or somebody that was totally connected to Auburn. LSU didn't steal crap from Clemson because LSU was established before Clemson. My doctor (who is an Auburn grad and big time fan) told me that the reason why Clemson has purple with their orange is because the founder of their school forbade the use of the color blue, because he didn't want Auburn to be confused with Clemson.
