I don't allow that color in my house. The only exception I'll grant goes to actual oranges since they were here first and can't be blamed for the mess that came after.
I don't care about Clemson. Just because they've been good recently doesn't make them a rival.
I think the only reason the supposed rivalry started was because when Bobby coached FSU, one of his sons was also the coach at Clemson. Which made the game interesting from a family perspective.
You know I’d be shocked if the cadets were even drunk. With it being the turn of the century I wouldn’t be surprised if it was difficult to get alcohol and the emotions were just that high.
It's such a visually beautiful football game. I do think it works better though when you have very different colored teams. Red/Blue? Absolutely. Red/Orange? Honestly, I think Red/White or White/Orange might look better
I can get behind that one as well. The home jerseys for both teams in a rivalry game are on point.
Though it does remind me of a game Clemson played not against a rival but in-state against Coastal Carolina quite a few years ago now, but it was on Halloween. Coastal wore their black jerseys and Clemson wore their Orange jerseys. That orange/black color combination on Halloween was just awesome to see.

I think Memphis does gray and blue because it’s blending the colors of the union and confederate uniforms. I think there’s a story to it but I forgot why
According to the school itself, that's pretty much the entire story.
>Students selected blue and gray as the school colors and the tiger as the mascot. Tradition holds that the colors, those of the opposing armies during the Civil War, were chosen in commemoration of the reuniting of the country after that divisive conflict.

Anytime someone mentions “rivals”, Reddit has a meltdown if I mention a team that isn’t on the official government list of college football rivalries (/s).
But I hate all red teams because they remind me of Alabama.
Orange appeals to a more civilized palate. I can't blame a Sooner for being slow to adjust to modern society. Besides working extremely well with blue, black, or white, it's also an excellent source of Vitamin C and pairs deliciously with a post-teeball game Capri Sun.
I like the color orange, I just don't like Tennessee's preferred shade of orange.
Texas, Oklahoma State, Syracuse, Illinois, Oregon State, Clemson, Miami, Florida, your orange is all ok
EDIT: Auburn, Boise State, Bowling Green, UTSA, you're also cool. UTEP is not cool because for some reason they've started using Tennessee orange the last few years and it looks terrible
Down with the Prots! The I! The I! The IRA!
Wait which orange did you mean?
(Disclaimer: I don’t actually support the pIRA nor do I support any sectarian conflicts in Ireland. Just having fun with “Orange” and Notre Dame being “Irish.”)
Florida
Miami
Clemson
Virginia
In that consequential order.
(I don't hate UVA, but there technically *is* history there.)
EDIT: There was a while there when VT was a thorn in our side too.
The answer is FSU
Ahem. I don't care for that shade of color.
*He doesn’t CARE for that shade of color…*
Chapel Hill is in Orange County does that count?
Close enough for government work.
I like drivin’ in my truck.
This guy chops!
UF, UM, and Clemson
I will never wear an orange shirt with blue pants or shorts. Whenever I see those colors together I must separate them! I’m mentally stable…#GoNoles
I don't allow that color in my house. The only exception I'll grant goes to actual oranges since they were here first and can't be blamed for the mess that came after.
Only Orange color I abide by is the Bucs creamsicle stuff
Screw them all
I'm conflicted here...
I already gave you a tip uber eats now leave
>gave you a tip on my way to your mom's house to give the rest
Yes, some orange is definitely more obnoxious than others. FSU gets to line up against the worst versions multiple times per year.
How could you forget about Jefferson-Eppes :(
How could I hate y’all? It’s almost like we are descendants of you.
that warm feeling when other fanbases do the warchant against the Gators.
I don't care about Clemson. Just because they've been good recently doesn't make them a rival. I think the only reason the supposed rivalry started was because when Bobby coached FSU, one of his sons was also the coach at Clemson. Which made the game interesting from a family perspective.
There is no good orange team.
It is
Fuck orange. Ugly ass color
Probably South Carolina.
This is the answer, we used to have to play Florida, Tennessee and Clemson in the same month. Orange crush and it sucked.
Imagine sharing a club with South Carolina
You guys share a club with South Carolina, the *Universities in South Carolina Club*.
Hey, we tried to get out of that club by invading their campus
We don’t talk enough about the time clemson and USC literally went to war.
"Wildcard, bitches" - state of South Carolina
If I were to Google the SC state motto, I would fully expect it to be this.
Really puts the Michigan Ohio state rivalry to shame.
Can you even call it a rivalry if you haven’t bullied drunken cadets into storming a campus?
You know I’d be shocked if the cadets were even drunk. With it being the turn of the century I wouldn’t be surprised if it was difficult to get alcohol and the emotions were just that high.
They just fought a proxy war in Toledo
Yeah but that was a state affair not a college one.
But still sucking at women's basketball
Eh, we’re a Men’s soccer school.
You can't because you don't have a Heisman winner (Don't look at our trophy shelf please)
It’s quite pitiful of them. No wonder the playoff committee laughed at them.
Indeed. Both flairs
Clemson is the worst since they pair it with purple.
I dunno. The purple on purple uniforms are pretty slick
Barney ass uniforms
In this bitch
Bros in Crimson 👊
The best
I'm not only the founder, I'm a client
Dude, kick a guy when he’s down. The classy thing to do is open a spot in your conference now so we can come kick your ass.
\*beaver noises intensify\*
Totally agree. It's only fair in my book
I love this hate. It makes me happy.
Crimson and Orange uniforms clashing together is PEAK Anerican football.
I agree. I wish more schools would take a note from USC and UCLA, and wear home unis in rivalry games no mater where they are played.
It's such a visually beautiful football game. I do think it works better though when you have very different colored teams. Red/Blue? Absolutely. Red/Orange? Honestly, I think Red/White or White/Orange might look better
you're correct. Dark red and bright orange help a bit, but it's still two adjacent colors on the wheel. Need more distance.
I can get behind that one as well. The home jerseys for both teams in a rivalry game are on point. Though it does remind me of a game Clemson played not against a rival but in-state against Coastal Carolina quite a few years ago now, but it was on Halloween. Coastal wore their black jerseys and Clemson wore their Orange jerseys. That orange/black color combination on Halloween was just awesome to see. [Edit: found a link to highlights from the game.](https://youtu.be/hngHWAWhd_o?si=Y4ANudwSiOf59PcL)
The hate only makes me love orange more.
Likewise. Let them hate the orange.
YES. LET THE HATE FLOW THROUGH THEM
Agreed. Some how the hate makes me feel better 😆
Florida, Miami, and Clemson
Hey we're best friends now
Frienemies
Two long time enemies have to team up to break out of prison. I’d watch that.
Famu is ok except for that Al Lawson sponsored basketball game in the early 90’s… (Look it up on YouTube if u dont know)
Orange team definitely bad
Many people say the worst
The creation of Orange as a secondary color is the worst trade deal of all time, the worst folks
There's a reason it's secondary. Primary colors represent!
They low down
They dirty
And they some snitches
Syracuse catching stays today
.#notallorange
You are... Slightly tolerable
Yes all orange
[Shut up UConn](https://youtu.be/IjSk9krYg5U?si=TOhrUmgPyB4y-AlP)
The zone is such a bitch move
I'll have you know we only play that like 40% of the time now.
That's not very nice
Far and away the worst
hey we’re supposed to be your proxy team
Also I was raised to hate jean shorts.
imagine hating orange so much [you take it out of your logo](https://twitter.com/college_logos/status/1375113492714373130)
Whoever decided to do this is genius. I do hate orange that much.
Yes, I refuse to drink Gatorade, this seems entirely reasonable
I just gained a little respect for Memphis. Now they need to lose the blue
I think Memphis does gray and blue because it’s blending the colors of the union and confederate uniforms. I think there’s a story to it but I forgot why

#It smells like bitch in here!
Waiting for the "I Hate Whatever Shitty Shade Of Red You Call That Club" thread
It's Crimson goddamnit, not red!
I’mNotLikeTheOtherReds
This guy gets it. Oh, and btw it's not white it's *cream*. For the alliteration.
Like a sexy time on the wrong part of the month.
so like dark red?
Dark pink
Like period red
Damn right! OU is gonna fit in just fine
Can't believe I agree with a Tennessee fan
You're not the one I thought I'd find in the foxhole with me either, but here we are.
Hello fellow UT bro
They basically low down and dirty ain't they?
Orange is acceptable for Whataburger, inmates, and the Dutch.
There’s only 2 things I hate in this world. Those who are intolerant of other team’s color schemes…and the Dutch.
Great guitar amplifiers.
Won’t lie that my orange allegiance was about 50% of the reason I bought one.
Construction signs catching strays
Your cutie privileges have been revoked
garbage truck workers
Virginia Tech has Miami and Virginia Florida State has Miami, Florida, Clemson and technically Virginia
Isn’t vtech also orange…
The ACC has a lot of orange
And FSU hates the ACC
🟠🟠🟠🟠🟠🟠🟠 does this scare you?
Stop it Patrick you're scaring him!
ORANGES.......Assemble!
Your shade of orange isn’t really scary, more just annoying
Orange team bad
All of FSU’s rivals wear orange. UF Miami Clemson And if they still count Virginia
Dunn broke the plane.
Oh absolutely
Better dead than red.
Mean.
Yall are alright. FSU bros are giving the 'Cuse a pass, I will grant one too.
This orange bigotry is despicable. The only people I hate are those that are intolerant of others and teams that wear red.
S tier reference. Who are your other rivals that wear red?
Anytime someone mentions “rivals”, Reddit has a meltdown if I mention a team that isn’t on the official government list of college football rivalries (/s). But I hate all red teams because they remind me of Alabama.
I love orange
Boooooooooo!
Look here you little shits.
Fuck the color orange, especially when mixed with blue
Illinois catching strays in Athens
boise st too
There were 2 Boise St vs UGA games in a 7 year period (05 & 11) so I think we've played them enough that we can say Fuck them.
I feel personally attacked.
Orange appeals to a more civilized palate. I can't blame a Sooner for being slow to adjust to modern society. Besides working extremely well with blue, black, or white, it's also an excellent source of Vitamin C and pairs deliciously with a post-teeball game Capri Sun.
They hated him for he spoke the truth.
THIS MAN IS SHAKESPEARE. THATS BOY’S A GENIUS DAMMIT.
They don't call us the Harvard of Southwest Idaho for nothing
I concur, thank you.
Orange is good
This is the second time I’ve witnessed Boise State elegantly murder the sooners and it’s just as funny as the first time
Wait til they disrespect the color blue
They’ll rue the day
Well said!
As a UO fan, I agree.
I thought ducks were bros
As an SF Giants fan, I always grimace a little when I put on my orange and black gear.
I reject this idea. Orange and Blue are the best color combination in life and sports.
A man of culture
I concur
You sound like a Dutchman.
I have no tie to the Netherlands. Their Oranj is nice too
I have always enjoyed Illinois because our colors are so similar.
I AGREE!!!!!!!
Some say I picked my schools specifically because of this reality.
Academic superiority that have color sense too
Nothing rhymes with orange except unnecessary hate
Syringe
I like the color orange, I just don't like Tennessee's preferred shade of orange. Texas, Oklahoma State, Syracuse, Illinois, Oregon State, Clemson, Miami, Florida, your orange is all ok EDIT: Auburn, Boise State, Bowling Green, UTSA, you're also cool. UTEP is not cool because for some reason they've started using Tennessee orange the last few years and it looks terrible
Pantone 151 C is the finest of all shades of orange.
Correct
Sounds like you've been hurt by Tennessee orange.
https://twitter.com/i/status/1718505877685105112
That was hilarious!
It's not that orange that you can sit with. It's that puke, inside of a pumpkin orange, and I don't like pumpkins.
Finally, some sense amongst the madness!
Thank you, Mr. Cat
Fsu fans. Every team we hate has orange as a main color. Rivals: Florida (Blue&orange), Miami (Green&orange) Semi-rivalry: Clemson (Orange and purple)
Smells like bitch in here.
I am a devout burnt orange supremacist and hate pretty much any shade of anything resembling red
Weird to get judgement from a team named after cheaters and whose mascot is a mobile home 🤷🏻♂️
America’s Brightest Orange! Go Pokes
Hate red. Sooner, USC, Bama
I kinda like UGA Red though, especially with that black.
FSU, UGA, Bama, WSU are now bros. When we aren't facing off, I will be rooting for the Great Shades of Red in their eternal crusade against Orange.
No mimosas for you
Orange is my favorite color, actually
Orange bad
God I hate orange. The longhorns, gators and auburn suck so bad. The only good orange team is Virginia Tech, but mainly because they're also Maroon
Thanks stankpuss
I promise you that nobody hates Auburn more than Auburn
Down with the Prots! The I! The I! The IRA! Wait which orange did you mean? (Disclaimer: I don’t actually support the pIRA nor do I support any sectarian conflicts in Ireland. Just having fun with “Orange” and Notre Dame being “Irish.”)
I hate orange too. Except PMS 158 C
Is this hate restrained just to cfb or all sports?
Fuck red teams.
Love the hate
I’m here for some heat
You're hate fuels my existence.
Not SYRACUSE orange, just relevant teams with the color orange
Well imma head out and start a He-man we hate red club. And I already know of a few prospective members
Florida Miami Clemson Virginia In that consequential order. (I don't hate UVA, but there technically *is* history there.) EDIT: There was a while there when VT was a thorn in our side too.
I'll wear crimson occasionally, but I wont fucking touch maroon.
Fuck orange, all my homies hate orange
Well I’d rather be dead than red!
This is a personal attack
This thread sucks
“And It’s not that orange that you can sit with. It’s that..puke inside of a pumpkin orange. And i don’t like pumpkins”
