Whiteout

[VolInsider]

It was mentioned on SportsTalk yesterday that the UT Student section is trying for a "whiteout" of the student section, similar to what Penn State did a few weeks ago.

Any other fans want to join in?

Go Big...White! :rock:

Nick Saban asked the students to do it during he 2003 UGA game.

I see enough white when we are on the road.

The Cocks tried a black out against UF a few years ago and got smoked.

Actually, it was started by the Edmonton Oilers....in HOCKEY!!! :biggrin2:

It has since been copied a lot. Several teams do white-outs or black-outs. The Philadelphia Flyers have a great orange-out though...

 

[VolInsider]

I wish Thompson-Boling looked like that....other than when its empty

 

[UTGRADnNC]

That's a cool pic Insider.

 

[tvolsfan]

how about a shut out.

or a whiteout would be fine.

 

[obxvol]

May I ask what the point is?

Yes, I think we would all prefer a shutout to a white out. As long as we are the ones DOING the shutting out :thumbsup:

Of course, then the question is, can the offense still score more points than 0? :crazy:

I dunno, just passing the word. I guess the students are trying to think of SOMETHING to make UT Football interesting, other than hanging out with friends and drinking. :blink:

im going with you maryvillereb.....why not orange?

 

[Brojan]

I'll be wearing ORANGE!

 

[govols2316]

Why not wear whatever the heck you want to wear. If we have to wear a certain color for the team to play better then we are in more trouble than we think. Why not get everyone to scream and cheer every single play instead of worrying about what they are wearing. That is what would really help the team.

Texas A&M fans at Kyle Field color coordinate for every single game like that.
