Color blind?

Postby newshound » Sun Oct 24, 2010 1:52 am

Mother Nature really screwed the whole day.

Everything was pretty much a disaster.

Burning question remains: why wear red jerseys in a game that was a designated "Blue Out"?

Such a disappointing day all around. Let's take it out on Tulane next week.

Blue-out: everyone but the players on the field

I agree, that made no sense.

would you have suggested a red out to coordinate colors with the UH supporters?

I would have suggested that the team, like the fans, wear blue.

Right, but we were urged to wear blue to the Tulsa game. Same problem.

First poster was right. Put this game behind us, and take it out on Tulane.

Our defense was wearing camo. I had a hard time seeing them anywhere near the ball.
