100% Chance of Snow

[WhatTheFrog]

Odd comment considering every away team has to wear white (except of course when TCU decides to white out at home).

Maybe that's why I don't like them, I don't like being the road team. I also dislike the white out home games. It sucks to tailgate and grill in white. It's a disaster waiting to happen.

ISU announced they were wearing red, red, red. Patterson has been pretty adamant about wearing contrasting helmets from the opposition, so it is strange that we would be wearing purple instead of white.

This is pretty much what I imagined a hype video made in Iowa might look like.

Not sure if these means anything, but TCU football tweeted out something today showing the Red ISU helmet and the white TCU helmet... Maybe we are actually going to wear white helmets?

Had honestly never thought about that. Makes sense.

Tailgate in purple, change to white right before the game

Maybe Patterson only likes doing it when it's in our favor?

Maybe he knows we won't be passing much and on the flipside, ISU will try to use their big WR's.

Mostly the team (captains-etc) pick the uniforms after learning about the home team selections. Gary who is superstitious as the devil, puts his slant on the selections.Gary would probably pick the purple helmet with the rose in all important games if he had total say

if the Ames forecast changed to 100% no snow then Maybe GP switched to the white helmet because GMFP would not mess with us would he.

I just wouldn't care. It's not like it's a mythical black jacket or something.

As others have pointed out, we typically go with the opposite of the other team on helmets. Helps qb identify WRs

or put your scary mask on, it's Halloween

You have to bring at least two shirts and hats. If black isn't working, you have to go purple.
