I always thought these [color]-out games were gimmicks from the athletic departments designed to spike sales in shirts.

Hi Guest, we are working on updating the site servers and software. We're also 'forcing' everyone to read and agree to our site privacy policy and terms of service. There are no significant changes to either of these but the terms page does clarify a few things that are mostly in the legalese. You can just click the checkbox for both and continue using the site as usual! We'll update you more on the site upgrades VERY soon! THANK YOU AS ALWAYS for supporting the site and being an active participant!
To be fair, they've lost a lot more games in their red jersey's. Maybe they should ditch those :biggrin:
Even the announcers were stunned. At the end of the half JPW dropped a perfect TD pass over Julio's shoulder. The announcer goes "Are you kidding me?!?!"

Well, to be somewhat objective - maybe, not traditional - UGA's colors are red and black. So wearing black isn't too much of a stretch especially when compared to some schools that opt for a "blackout" and just choose to wear that color.
I don't think that a "pick your color" out game is a bad idea. It sells merchandise and it gets fans into a game. The only problem would be if the coaches and team put more emphasis on that game/opponent than another in the season. Because, win or lose, you have to take the field the next week. Suddenly the next game is not as important? Where do you go from there?
