I'll be there with the fam....wearing our brightest ORANGE and MAROON! The season is already down the drain for me as I don't expect us to compete with Clemson or FSU, so I am just hoping to see improvement this week and a good football game.

I totally agree with HoHum. I'm just looking for the team to progress over the previous week now. I do NOT want to see the boys give up and mail it in for the rest of the season. I don't know what to think about this game, my gut feeling is that we'll win a close, low scoring game (something like GT). I hope like hell that Bud lights up the defense's collective ass and they are ready to stuff Bernard (even though they couldn't last year on Thursday).

Expectations have been lowered across the board. Now they can just play

Looks like there is some rumor going around that we may say #ALLMAROONEVERYTHING this weekend at UNC .. would love that .. Matter in fact, was thinking that we should get back to blue-collar attitude and wears uniforms that fit that ... ala old school Penn State

maroon only pants
plain solid maroon jersey (with white numbers) -- no name
plain maroon helmets with either a single white stripe or 1 white in middle and 2 orange on ends

then, we truck everyone in our way

Like this? That would be pretty sweet, although I like our current normal jerseys.

Same here. You'd think they'd want to unveil it at home.

Where are you even hearing this? We haven't had maroon pants for a couple years and I don't believe have them this year either.

edit: looks like 46 saw first

NO.

This team doesn't deserve All Maroon. That's reserved badasses that actually have heart and smash people in the face.

Ok, you had me on the word "smash". We still need them though - just keep them in reserve until our blue collar attitude is exemplified on the field....

The rumors were coming from the Equipment Managers tweeting that they got new gear but couldn't say what it was yet.

Maroon is also an FSU color (well, similar anyway). I think we try to avoid having a maroon/orange effect game against an opponent who has that in their colors.
