I bet this thread would be funnier if you posted it on your fashion merchandising board

Texas' burnt orange looks like it has taken a trip through a 6 month-old's digestive tract.

Under Armour changed the orange that Auburn had worn for years and made it too bright. I don't consider the UA orange to be "burnt orange".

I hope Nike moves back to something closer to the orange of the 90s/early 2000's that Russell had us in.

Orange is a putrid color, so the darker it gets the more palatable it becomes, IMO.

Tennessee and Florida's are bright as shite and do not look good under any circumstances.

Auburn is likely the eaisest to digest since it's darkened up a bit and it pairs with a very dark blue so neither is overhwleming to the retinas like flroida.

Texas's is all over the place. Some "burnt" orange is just a shade darker than UF's while some may as well be brown or rust.

None of those teams managed to get in the tournament for the first time in over a decade and look up to find that they were down 29-3

It is exactly the same color of the stuff my grandson puts in his diaper three or four times a day.

Tennessee orange looks like an actual orange or tangerine.
Florida orange has more red in it. Looks like the Dukes of Hazzard’s General Lee..
Auburn orange. Somewhere between UT and UF.
Texas orange. Red clay mud or burnt sienna.

There’s a reason cars are red or black and not bright orange

“Tennessee’s colors is that throw up orange. It’s not that orange you can sit with. It’s that puke inside of a pumpkin orange, and I don’t like pumpkins.”
