Supposedly, at least according to the LA Daily News, USC is considering wearing black uniforms (or at least helmets) against UCLA in 2011.
I assumed it was a ridiculous joke and planned to pretend the entire suggestion had never been raised. USC in anything other than cardinal and gold? No thank you. We’ll pass. (Did you hear that?? I said No.)
Zack, the mastermind behind Lost Angeles Blog and Arrogant Nation, wrote yet another brilliant blog post about the horror that would be USC in trendy uniforms. USC football is a tradition, not a trend, so let’s all just forget this alternate black helmet business once and for all.
USC fans, make your voices heard and speak out against what would be an absolute football fashion faux pas on the USC Athletics Facebook page and on Twitter (#noUSCblackout). And if you need some talking points other than “This is a horrible idea and you’ve lost your collective mind if you think otherwise,” go check out Zack’s blog.
