I FOUND THE PROBLEM!!!

[Bulldog Bruce]

I saw the post about A&M and got to thinking.

I asked AI:

Has a college football team with maroon as one of it's primary colors won a national championship


It's answer:

Yes, college football teams with maroon as a primary color have won national championships. [1]

• Texas A&M Aggies (whose official colors are maroon and white) won claimed national championships in 1919, 1927, and 1939.
• Chicago Maroons (who competed at the highest level of college football at the time) claimed national titles in 1905 and 1913.
• Fordham Rams (maroon and white) claimed a national championship in 1929.
• Lafayette Leopards (maroon and white) claimed national championships in 1896, 1921, and 1926. [1, 2, 3, 4]

So the real answer is no.

WE NEED TO CHANGE OUR COLORS. NOW!!!!

Crimson and Gold?

Garnet and gold

So the trend I see there is "claimed national championship." Somebody needs to yank that 1941 flag down on Tuscaloosa and put it where it belongs.

No Minnesota?

1960 is the last time and it is called gopher maroon.

No, the maroon used by the University of Minnesota (Gopher Maroon) is not the same color as Mississippi State's maroon.

They don’t call it that (see below), and 1960 is more recent than any of the other teams listed.

I think you're talking to rebels in Desoto county. That's their go to.... some comment about disliking maroon.

But I've always thought maroon was a nice unique color. At least before atm came along.
