I always wondered why they switched back to orane.....it makes us look like pumpkins. BG athletics strikes up another great impression....We really need to make a change at AD...its long overdue.

Riiiight...the fashion sense of some obscure internet yahoo should definitley be a determining factor in our AD's employment status....

Did I miss Virginia Tech - that's the worst use of orange in my opinion. I prefer O&B over orange and burgundy.

On the positive side we are unforgetable. As the Hollywood types would say - bad publicity is good so we just need to keep taking it.

How many of you think the awfully unforgetable blue turf in Boise is a good marketing gimic? And some even wanted orange turf. Now that would have been notable and not on any good lists.
I proudly chose to be a Falcon and a Falcon I will remain until the end.

The brown uniforms should be used more often. Also, we need to use 'Burnt' orange rather than pumpkin/hunting orange for our uniforms and fan apparel. More merchandise could be sold with burnt orange rather than putting on the rack five different shades of orange.

Without question...the yellow and bown has always been THE worst college uniform.

Law Enforcement officials in Chicago say the new Arizona State pitchfork logo resembles the trident logo of the Satan Disciples, a violent street gang in the city. ASU promises "legal action" against the gang if the SDs use licensed gear to represent their gang.

Sure...if there's one thing a violent street gang fears it's a tersely worded "cease and desist" order...

Yeah, I put a lot of credence into an article where the quality of a uniform is based upon the colors of the school.

I hate green, so I guess MSU has the worst uniforms on my Top 10 list.

Especially noting the fact that some on that list are there just because "they're boring-looking."

It's just the product of the new computer age. People give way too much credit to something on-line, such as the stupid ESPN Bottom 10. These are just one person's opinion and we run with them like they are some scientific finding at times.
