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.

Hypothetical: What SEC school should change their school colors?
My initial thought is LSU because their colors are just ugly, but they carry a cultural significance. Everyone else is fine. For the rest of college football, I'd say Wyoming...just awful.
FYI, purple and yellow are complementary colors on the color wheel that blend aesthetically, just like blue/orange and red/green...

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

I'd say purple/gold is far from cliche

I'm a fan of Auburn's colors. Very classic

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

Not sure, but Missouri needs to ditch their fricking arena football uniforms.
This is the SEC dammit.

My favorite colors for the SEC is UK and UGA.

Get out of here with that nonsense.

Mizzou's original colors were crimson and gold. I would have preferred we stayed with that.
Also, Penn State was originally Pink and Black. They would certainly be unique if they kept that.

Lsu should swap from yellow to gold.

Tennessee. That shade of orange should be illegal.

No colors look better in HD than LSU's......
And I like the Ole Miss colors
I'd say UF and one of the maroon schools

This.
I'm a fan of LSU's colors too. And Vandy's.

LSU's colors are unique and defining. When you see an LSU team, you know who it is instantly.
That's the kind of recognition you just can't buy from a marketing perspective.
Regardless of whether you think the colors are ugly or not, they are the last school in the SEC that should be given a color change suggestion.
RED/maroon/garnet + white is the most overused color in the conference. Bama and Georgia own these colors. Everyone else, you think it identifies you, but it doesn't. You're just one big maroon/red/garnet and white smear that is boring as shite.

I think LSU and Mississippi have the two best uniforms in the SEC. I think Miss. State and Mizzou have the two worst (outside of alternative uniforms). I have a hatred of black uniforms. Some whites look good.

Me too. And like the blue/red contrast of Ole Miss as well.
