Are we still wearing red?

Postby RunPeruna » Tue Jul 22, 2008 9:59 am

I was just getting all geared up for the upcoming season, and I was wondering if there was an "official" decision on the fan color to usher in the June Era. Is it still red, or has anything changed?

White. It's cool. Wear red or blue if you want but you will be hot.

Back in the "Pony Express" era I remember Bobby Collins and his staff wearing blue or red shirts. Traditionally have the coaches worn more red or more blue?

FYI, I bought an "old school" SMU hat from Lidz and it's "Pony Express" Blue with a white mustang on the front and SMU in white letters on the back. My assumption would be that blue is the preferred color on game day but I could be wrong.

Old, Hell. Houston, mid August, 90% humidity, white is the only choice, unless you enjoy sweating like a pig, which we all will be doing anyway....

The game is at 7pm, right? So you won't be contending with midday sun. It will be hot no matter what color you wear. Red will stand out more against their dark blue and grey, so wear red. Or our royal blue. Anything but navy.
