The NCAA made LSU wear purple at home. LSU wanted to wear white at home and petitioned the NCAA to change the rule - instead LSU has to get permission from all opponents to allow LSU to wear white at home and opponents have to wear their normal home attire in Tiger Stadium. As a result LSU still has to wear white on the road as well so outside of a few non conference games in purple LSU predominately wears white.

It's similar to the USC UCLA annual game, both teams want to wear their colors in that game and NCAA mandates one team has to wear their home gear.

Has LSU ever worn gold on gold?

That would be sweet.

Beautiful uniform alert.

SC/UCLA have worn their home unis together recently, now UF/UGA are doing that this year, IIRC
