re: LSU fans: Why do you avoid the purple jersey?

Has LSU ever worn gold on gold?

Yes, they have. In the 40's. I know for sure that LSU wore gold on gold in the 1944 Orange Bowl vs. A&M.

One additional benefit of always wearing white is that it sets LSU apart from all the other schools, particularly the ones that change their look multiple times per season. LSU is instantly recognizable because of the white jersey look. We choose this particular thing to be the special thing about our uniform and it is t-i-g-h-t.
