Home Opener Announcement

[mbenecke]

It was just announced that the home opener against Maryland, which kicks off at 6:00pm on September 8th, will be a White Out! The team will go as far as wearing their all-white uniforms at home, so let's back them and sport some white of our own.

See you in the stands!

It’s just my opinion, but PSU doing a white out makes sense ( one of their primary colors).
BG does a whiteout vs MD. Because?
Why not an Orange out?

I would guess that they are planing an Orange Out for one of the other home games.

Just got my tickets and will be coming in from Chicago for the game. I don't expect a repeat of the last game against Maryland, but I hope there's a good turnout and a competitive game.

It's probably because white-outs look better.

Either that or they got a $50 sponsorship from BIC Wite-Out and will read ads during every dead ball.

Brown out doesn't have the same ring to it.

I'll be there in my BG White.

I will be there with six other BGSU grads. White out with orange shoes!!!!!!

I doubt you would get many fans dressed in all orange or all brown. All white would be easier to comply with. Many fans will already have the white outfits. I would not be buying an orange shirt & pants or brown shirt & pants just to see the game.

[Falconfreak90]

I'll be sporting a white jersey. GO FALCONS!!!

[Beaker]

Surprised the term is even used in official context, given it doesn't exactly sound p.c..

I’ve ordered matching WHITE T shirts for my daughter, her husband, Joyce and me. Almost forgot I won a WHITE cap in an alum contest last year, so I’ll follow the theme as best I can..
The CLE alum bus trip should be a great time...so GO BG!

I'll still wear orange and be a rebel. White is not a school color and I find this concept kind of stupid.

It's all about unity. It's a way to rally and show support for the team.

Recruits love it, and the unity provides for an enhanced home atmosphere. Hope to see many others participating, as it's meant to be a fun thing to make the game a little more exciting.
