Red unis

Unread post by stafford » Sat Dec 01, 2018 10:42 pm

Why did ULALA wear all red? I get all of the neutral site stuff, but why did we have two teams wearing all of one color?

It didnt' matter in terms of visibility, just not right traditionally.

Thinking that is their home colors so since they were allowed to choose they wanted to make it as much a home game as they could.

Sun Belt really needs to revisit the home field advantage thing. I'm cool with the banners everywhere and even the videos that featured Louisiana's school,, but limiting our band, giving both teams a grand entrance, not allowing us to have the inflatable helmet, making a gun fire go off after any score, etc. We earned home field, so why shouldn't we be able to do what we did all other home games?

It was kind of nice seeing full black and red out there. I guess everyone was OK with home & home jerseys.

You don't think the crowd provided home field advantage? Somehow not allowing us to use the inflatable helmet took away an advantage? Keep in mind, technically it wasn't our game, it was a Sun Belt game played in Boone.

I think home field advantage was in full effect yesterday regardless of what banners and uniforms were around the stadium.

Absolutely. The UL running back was quoted as saying that they let the crowd noise get to them. If that was 14k, I can only imagine what 30k would have sounded like!

The home field advantage is that you travel to Boone instead of Louisiana, get first crack at your own seats and parking, more of your teams fans in the stands... I could go on. It was a conference championship, not an App home game.
