Imagine having your school colors chosen after "do a dollop of d-a-i-s-y"

Tennessee Vowels pride themselves on being children of the American Daisy, the flower that grew on "the Hill", an area of UT's campus, inspired by UT football player, Charles Moore, who chose the colors.

How pansy and appropriate for the Volunqueers.

Where's a weedwacker when you need it?

Never seen a UT fan in Athens, when the play there, who was wearing less than 3 different shades of Orange.

Some schools and their coaches aim for January confetti.

The Tennessee Vomiteers aim for September confetti.

Tennessee Vowels...where every year's a rebuilding year!

Yep

It’s a shame how they abandon their true color.

A golden orange that was great looking uniforms.

I really think it had to do with tv media complaining they couldn’t read the numbers.

Then during the Payton Manning era they even outlined the numbers in black.

Stupid and ugly

They are now back to very nice uniforms

Not sure if the color is correct.

Orange and white is not a true description of their colors

Imagine having no originality. Generic colors, a stolen logo, a rebranded fight song and a generic mascot. I present the the UGA athletics program.

Imagine being such an insecure little dick that another team's colors bother you.

UGA is the original public university.

Red and Black are great colors.

Glory Glory is no different than Rocky Top. Neither are unique, neither are the official fight song. Georgia’s fight song is Hail to Georgia, my understanding is Down the Field is The Tennessee fight song. The Redcoat band has adapted many Georgia themed songs over the years…Tara, bad bad Leroy Brown, Georgia on my mind etc. Glory is no different. It’s an interesting debate whether John Brown’s body or Battle Hymn of the republic came first.

OP isn’t great, feel free to critique.
