Not supposed to hate…

I Agree! And get off my lawn too.

 

It looks much worse on TV than it does when you're in the stadium...

 

I approve this message.

 

It wouldn't be so bad if the cameras could adjust on the fly.

 

I thought this was going to another Colorado theme thread

 

Agreed, it's lame.

 

I hate the stupid “team color” lights in every stadium. It’s moronic. Leave the damn lights on.

 

I remember the first time I saw it done on TV. Can't remember which stadium. But it spread like Covid. I wish just once they'd switch the lights off and then can't turn them back on.

I even remember the first time I ever saw a player hot-dog it into the endzone, kicking his heels up as he scored. It happened at Florida Field, and the culprit was Elmo Wright of Houston.

 

From the thread title I was CERTAIN this was a thread about uniform combination chosen for bowl game.
Disappointed.

 

They can keep the lights if people will just. stop. rubbing their fingers together on “money down” and adding “ooh ah” after “hey baby” in “I Won’t Back Down.”

 

Back when I was at UF we always sang "We Are the Boys" at the end of the third quarter. Do they still do that in addition to "I Won't Back Down," or has the latter simply replaced it?

 

The uniform combo was awesome, wish it had been all Orange.

 

Still played. Precedes Won’t Back Down.

 

not a fan of it- but unfortunately it is a sign of the times

 

Recruits and players love it. Thus it will continue. Personally I am a fan of it. Not as much as my 14 year old daughter when we attend gator games - she thinks it’s great.

 

They ought to make a movie about how it all started. Call it "The Night the Lights Went Out in (Insert the Place)." A guy for whatever nefarious reason turns out the lights at a game. Another guy immediately turns them back on. The two guys start fighting over the lights, with the now ubiquitous effect. Eventually the NCAA gives them a special award for their innovation, and the two guys then fight over the reward. They are interviewed on Fallon's tonight show and start fighting on camera. They finally wind up as prize fighters, though they only fight each other, in a sensational series of bouts, and for one or the other it's always lights out. At the end they both die in an accident and go to hell, where the devil delights in giving them a special punishment: a room together in which the lights eternally turn off and on.
