Individuals and groups will not be permitted to loiter or sit on campus to reserve a preferred site until this time. Tape, rope, chairs, small tents and any other site markings placed prior to Friday will be removed.

As the University of Georgia did last weekend with their “Blackout”, could Auburn be thinking of the ultimate ALL AUBURN ALL ORANGE event for the Alabama football game next weekend against Alabama by wearing ORANGE jerseys? After all, it is a designated an “All Auburn All Orange” event according to Auburn University’s Wire Eagle.
According to The Goldmine Scoop blog on AL.com, Tuberville probably won’t do it:
“One thing for sure, Tuberville isn’t going to counter with the Tigers breaking out their old and seldom-seen orange jerseys. Tuberville said he’s too much of a traditionalist for that, added he has trouble even recognizing teams on TV when they wear modern tricked-up colors and, besides, he’s not going to get in trouble by wearing orange, which would be bound to be as controversial as packing up the car and moving to College Station.”
Personally I thought the black at UGA looked great, not just on the field, but in the stands! If we could rally the troops and send some emails, maybe it would happen?
Your thoughts?

Game will kick off at 8 p.m. CT.
It will mark the fourth time this season that Auburn has appeared on ESPN. The Tigers opened the season with a 23-13 victory over Kansas State on the network, before earning a 20-17 victory at then-No. 4 Florida Sept. 29. This Saturday’s game at Arkansas will be televised by ESPN, and the LSU game will mark Auburn’s ninth appearance on ESPN in the last three seasons.
LSU leads the all-time series with Auburn 21-19-1 and owns a 12-5-1 edge in games played in Baton Rouge. LSU won the last meeting in Tiger Stadium, claiming a 20-17 overtime victory in 2005. Auburn’s last win in Baton Rouge came in 1999 by a score of 41-7.
