Wear red, if you wear white it looks like you support the visiting team.

Colorado had a blackout for a couple of games. I remember seeing some pictures from it and it looked AWESOME. I think the White Out will only be as cool as how many people participate. These kind of things only look cool when there are lots of people and everyone particpates.

June Jones doesn't even wear school colors. Wear Blue

White is not a color. White is, by definition, the absence of color. That is why white appears, somewhere, on just about every college team's uniform in the United States, home and away. Everyone should be allowed to wear white to his/her team's game if they want to. To me, what is worse than SMU choosing to wear white to a game, is schools like TCU, incorporating BLACK (which IS a color) into their team uniform, in an effort to look more "sinister," because the color purple wasn't "sinister" enough anymore. To me, that is infinitely more gay than having a White Out. But then again I am biased

Oh, and June Jones is exempt, when he wears black he's not trying to look sinister, he's just a natural badass.

Who said they incorporated black to look more "sinister"? Just asking.

I don't know, I'm just assuming that's why all teams do it who do it, kind of like when Bennett switched to the navy facemask, he said he wanted a darker, "more sinister look."

Jones' color scheme helps the offense easily locate him on the sidelines for the call ;) thats the cover story. He can represent the university with any color of shirt, with socks or without.
