re: What are the best and worst official SEC team colors?

That's quite the impressive block in the back on #11 there.

Texass orange is awful...like UT Vol orange better

Anything orange looks awful in my opinion. Tennessee, Florida, etc.

Horrible

You are maroon. Piss off

Worst has to be pumpkin puke orange

Did you say Florida? Their uniform & helmets are awful.

Yep, those lists are always shite for this reason

Like everyone else, I have subjective opinions. I won't include LSU here since I am extremely biased and believe everything about LSU (apart from our current university administration) to be better than everyone else.

If I'm considering the football uni's, the three best looking team colors are:

1) Tennessee. Clean white helmets with a bold "T" in crisp, bright orange. Tennessee orange is simply a good shade of orange.

2) Auburn. Again, a clean white Helmet and a bold logo without a lot of clutter. Dark blue jerseys look sharp. Aubie uses burnt orange in a classy way that enhances its appeal as opposed to the way newcomer, Texas, uses burnt orange in a manner that is reminiscent of a dried cow turd on the prairie.

3) Kentucky. The perfect shade of royal blue trimmed in white. Get rid of the chrome dome helmets and go to a metallic flake royal blue with "K" on the side. No need to have "UK" on the helmet when "K" will suffice and everyone knows it's the Wildcats.

Three worst:

1) South Carolina. Sorry guys, I don't have anything against SC, but I start getting overheated and sweating just looking at those dark colors on the field during a day game in the early part of the season. Those have to be the most suffocating uniforms in all of college sports. The colors garnet and black are too close on the color scale and just don't flash like some of te others. Again, your university is fine, it's just those colors.

2) Ole Miss. Hey, Reb's (or whatever your mascot is this year), your uni's look great when dark blue is used, but that powder blue... I know a lot of your fans say they like it, but do they really? I don't even like UNC's light blue color. No school in Mississippi should ever be caught wearing powder blue uniforms (unless it's The "W" over in Columbus).

3) Even though they're not officially an SEC member yet, Texas uni's just don't cut it. As mentioned above, the way Texas uses burnt orange makes it look like your players have been rolling around in dirt and dried cow dung. Now, if that's the feeling and appearance you're going for, you have succeeded beyond your wildest expectations. Just don't get the idea that the rest of us are smitten with those colors. They're not so bad when white jerseys are worn, but the burnt orange jerseys make the fashionistas in Austin's LGBTQ+ community howl in pain and anguish over such sartorial missteps. (Okay... Maybe those colors aren't all that bad now that I think about it.)
