White is not a primary color for USC yet they feature White in all but their Alternate uniforms. Black and Maroon need to be the only colors they wear right?


It's a requirement that road teams wear white so every team has white jerseys to wear on the road. They don't have a choice. All of SC's home jersey's are either garnet or black.

While the white jersey's look fine for UGA, I'd love to wear red or black jerseys in every game. It's who we are.

"What's that coming down the track?"
"It's the mean machine in red and black!"

But we're not allowed to do so.

I will say I've always been confused by the white helmets that SC wears. the black ones look better anyway.

That’s a lie. They use black trim but are generally Maroon, White, Camo, etc.


They haven't worn camo since 2014, and they were universally reviled.

We don't wear maroon. The official color is Garnet. You know that, but you're being deliberately obtuse.

Black is *featured* as a primary color in every uniform we have.

White, if you wanna be a dick about it, is also in our logo. It's also the color of the primary helmet (just like Auburn), since the early 90s (with the notable exception of the black-only hats in 2004).

If you're suggesting that SC should use garnet as the road color and black as the home color, sure. But I do believe that there is a requirement for *one* team to wear a road white, even if they're the home team.

Again, it's odd when a team wears black as a primary when it's not in their color scheme.

I personally like the traditional colors of the schools. I'd guess is has something to do with recruiting, style etc.... Who knows in todays world of college football

I prefer the Redskin helmet- the Garnet with the white circle on it.

But we almost never wear that anymore.

Holtz went to white hats, with one major deviation in 2004. Spurrier went back to white only. Muschamp brought forth all the variants, and Beamer has continued to use them. The Garnet "Script Carolina" hats weren't my favorites. I like it on a polo or tshirt, but a crap helmet.

Obviously, they didn't listen to me when selecting these hideous uniforms.

so one color must be white. What color should your school drop because of this rule?

Is Silver Red or Black? And should UGAs colors be Silver and White? Red and White or Black and White?

Expand your vocabulary, the term is accent, as in accent color. And if as DawgSC says White is mandatory then are y’all dropping Garnet or Black?

But schools are only allowed 2 colors remember? So are y’all dropping “Garnet” or Black?

BAMA doesn't need gimmicks to get players or the fans excited.

They didn’t. But now? Give it a few years and they would put Oregon to shame if it could fill a stadium with excitement.

Or if someone wanted to sponsor them but required a “special” uniform. They are tumbling down the longer Saban is gone.

Look at your images though. We're the only one with only one color as well.
