One of the greatest traditions schools across the country have when it comes to college football season is fans color coordinating in the stands for big-time matchups in order to provide an extra edge for the home team.
Whether it’s a white-out game at Penn State or a checkerboard game in Neyland Stadium, fans from all over have their own unique way of showing school pride while cheering on their favorite team.
The Georgia Bulldogs appear to be ready to join this trend this weekend against the Ole Miss Rebels, as the team just released a video on its official X account encouraging fans to “stripe out” Sanford Stadium.
This is in reference to a post that was making the rounds earlier in the week that proposed a concept in which the fans in Sanford coordinate what they wear to mimic the red, white, and black stripes that run down the sides of the team’s iconic silver britches.
The fans sitting on the visitors’ side will wear black, the fans on the home sideline will wear red, and the fans sitting in the end zone sections will wear white, giving the desired striped effect.
This will be the first time in Georgia football history that anything like this has been attempted, and it will certainly be a sight to behold when 93.000 fans pour into Sanford to see the Dawgs take on the Rebels in a crucial top-10 matchup.
