Orange Legs

[Snaggletiger]

Okay, now that we've seen them worn for a real game, what's your take on the orange shoes and socks/leggings/whatever they are?  My thoughts are they were okay for a game, but don't mess with the greatest uni's in college football too much.  Auburn is one of the few left that have stayed true to the traditional schemes.  Yes, they've made subtle changes just about every year and I really didn't think the orange looked bad at all Saturday.  Just don't want that to be more than an every now and then thing. 

Yay?  Nay?

Don't really care.  I just hope the orange jerseys are not that shade.

I thought the uni's looked good the socks didn't bother me.

As long as they were organic, the leggings and footings made no difference to me. 

I agree...don't fuck around with the uniform too much.  Louisville's uniforms were an abortion gone bad.

The new and improved Orange helmet stripe did nothing to enhance my viewing experience.

I just don't want to see any white. Players.

No doubt.  Speaking of abortions and maybe, placenta...anyone notice that Maryland is still wearing that...I honestly don't know how to describe what that is.  Who designed that, took a step back and said, "Damn, that looks good."?

Then damn sure don't watch South Dakota State.

I liked them, what people don't realize is that the kids want this stuff, its part of recruiting (like it or not) you have to be willing to change up some things. 

I thought they looked great on the TV's.

Like Nook said the helmet stripe looked no different, but I did like the old leg stripes back.

Not gonna happen according to Gus, he didn't like the orange socks and shoes but knew the kids wanted it.

All in all it's just another brick in the wall.

I thought it looked cool but don't want changes to creep any higher up the unis.

Unfortunately, the smallest change begins a slippery slope and creates precedent. For more on that, visit the SGA forum.

I disagree. (hehe)

True to AU form in the last 20 years, the coaches seem to let the players do something a bit different with the shoes and socks. Remember when the players came out in all black shoes and socks? GASP!

So this is just Gus' way of saying, "I'll let them have a little something".

But we still stayed traditional.

BTW. If they don't use the orange shoes again, what happens to them? Does each player sign his and they auction them off?

If so, I would like to find a pair out there for Snags...signed DAX!

Don't tease me you bitch.

We all know you'd rather have his jockstrap anyway. Fresh Dax groin scent.

Well that goes without saying.

I look to the day when you people stop judging my team by the color of its socks rather than its performance on the field.

Listen, I have enough trouble making good points without the likes of you coming along and proving them patently false. The black shoes/socks combo was rad by the way. They should've made that the standard uniform.
