It's gonna be ugly.All Orange vs All Green.
For a pre-Christmas bowl game that nobody outside of Syracuse or Tampa cares about, it'll work.
It’s gonna be glorious.It's gonna be ugly.
Or the fat players in burnt orange with blue piping on shoulder pads from GRob era.Me too, bring back the GRAY!!!!!
Awful.
We might as well be Oklahoma State or Clemson or Miami.
We are a national game tonight. We are the only game on television.
We are attempting to re-establish our football brand.
The all-orange look will not at all distinguish us or remind the viewers of Graves, Johnston, MacPherson or McNabb.
With the branding strategy in mind, we should be Orange/Blue/Orange so the world of college football can get re-acquainted with us.
This is a horrible decision.
Off topic, but why do people think that beating a dead horse is bad? Would they prefer we beat a live horse? That's twisted.
All green vs all orange.
BOOM!!Awful.

But I'm still pondering where Fran was sitting in that game.Respect history. If HCFB’s first SU game was the 1998 kickoff classic game against Wisconsin, then bring back the unis that McNabb, Darius and co. wore that day.

I’m probably one of the “old folks” at this point and I think our current unis are sharp as in all their combinations.So your take is the all Orange look is off brand for a school with the nickname "Orange," whose mascot is an anthropomorphic orange, and whose only official school color is orange, because it won't remind non-fans watching a Thursday night bowl of guys who played for Syracuse 25-35 years ago?
Also, no one associates any of OKST, Clemson, or Miami, with all orange uniforms.
I'm sure old folks will subscribe to your take though.
You're not THAT old if you say "sharp as ". You're not young, because you used "sharp" and "as " instead of "AF", but you still tried. So, you are a tweener.I’m probably one of the “old folks” at this point and I think our current unis are sharp as in all their combinations.

Ha ha ha! Thank you. I think….You're not THAT old if you say "sharp as ". You're not young, because you used "sharp" and "as " instead of "AF", but you still tried. So, you are a tweener.
since TV was black and white who knew it was orange?
Just an aggressively great post here.Off topic, but why do people think that beating a dead horse is bad? Would they prefer we beat a live horse? That's twisted.
Same person every uniform thread crying about tradition. Whatever.I’m not sure how anyone can say this isn’t “on brand” for the Syracuse ORANGE to play in all ORANGE
It’s not like we ran out there in the platinums.
It’s a bowl game, should always be a “special” uniform!!
Time to get with at least the 2000s!
I’m fine with it on occasion. But isn’t it the third time this year?I’m not sure how anyone can say this isn’t “on brand” for the Syracuse ORANGE to play in all ORANGE

GOD DANG IT!!! IT'S NOT ABOUT THE FREAKING KIDS. IT'S ABOUT ME AND MY FRIENDS. I AM SICK OF THE WHOLE "The kids like it" crap.I don’t really get the obsession with the uniforms. If the kids like them then that’s great.
A couple of years ago there was a Bills/Jets game. Bills, all red; Jets, all green. What was not considered was color blindness issues. Oops.All green vs all orange.
It is too bad a team that wears all red is not playing. Would have really gotten us in tie holiday spirit!
