Ball State: cardinal, white
Baylor: green, gold
Boston College: maroon, gold
Bowling Green: orange, brown
Brigham Young: navy blue, gold, white
Buffalo: blue, white
California: blue, gold From UCLA's web site: All UC campuses share variations of blue and yellow as school colors. The colors were chosen in June 1873. Blue was chosen as it symbolizes the ocean and the local wild flowers. It was also Yale University's color; many of the original more prominent professors, the first University President, the incumbent President in 1872, and the fathers of many of the undergraduates were Yale alumni. Gold was chosen as California was the Golden State, the Berkeley campus overlooked the Golden Gate, and the gold poppy was California's state flower.
Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo: green, gold
Central Arkansas: purple, gray
Central Florida: black, gold
Central Michigan: maroon, gold
Clemson: orange, purple
Colorado: silver, gold (teams wear black and gold) From Colorado's athletics site: The official colors of CU are silver and gold. According to the book Glory Colorado, these colors were adopted by the class of 1888, as a symbol of the mineral wealth of this state. But in 1921, as football became more popular, there were complaints from the students that silver and gold did not look good on football jerseys. In fact, silver and gold ended up looking like dirty gray and dark yellow. It wasn't until 1959 that the football team changed its jerseys to black with yellow. And although the football team seems to have set the trend with its color choice, CU still has the official colors of silver and gold.
Colorado State: green, gold From Colorado State's web site: Our school colors, green and gold, were chosen to reflect the institution's agricultural heritage.
Connecticut: navy blue, white From Connecticut's web site: the story
East Carolina: purple, gold From East Carolina's web site: The school colors for East Carolina University - purple and gold - go back to the time when the first students arrived on campus in 1909. ECU historian Dr. Mary Jo Bratton, the author of "East Carolina University The Formative Years 1907 - 1982," said the selection of school colors represented one of the first traditions established by the students. In the early fall of 1909 the administration asked students for their suggestions on school colors. Old gold and royal purple won the vote.
In the following year, the colors carried over to the school's first baseball team, a club team, that won most of its games. According to Bratton the opening game produced a 6 - 2 win for East Carolina against a local Greenville team. The newspaper account of the game credited the effective cheering of the young ladies of the school for "winning the victory for the purple and gold."
Eastern Michigan: green, white
Florida: orange, blue From Florida's web site: The origin of the school colors is a mystery. One explanation holds that the University of Florida acquired the colors from two of the schools abolished by the Buckman Act of 1905. The University of Florida at Lake City had school colors of Blue and Gold and the East Florida Seminary in Gainesville had Orange and Black. However, there is no direct evidence to support this claim.
The first printed reference to the school colors after the Gainesville campus opened in 1906 occurred in the Florida Times-Union of September 27, 1906. Reporting on the opening of the new campus, the newspaper stated that the buildings were draped in purple and gold. The next known color reference appeared in the first campus newspaper, the University News, and the colors were blue and orange.
In the November 1908 edition of the Florida Pennant, sucessor to the University News, the football team is referred to as the "ol gold and blue." Those colors appeared in several other articles including one by the YMCA stating that the 1911 calendar would have a border of old gold and lettering of royal blue. Something resembling those shades was used on the cover of the Pennant for the years 1908 and 1909. Finally, there was an "alma materish" song from that time period entitled Florida, My Florida (which was also the title of the official state song) that ended "And royal robes her form doth fold, We sing the blue and gold--Florida, my Florida." In all liklihood, the Blue and Gold simply moved to Gainesville from Lake City when the university moved in 1906.
In late 1910, blue and orange reappear. The 1911 YMCA calendar was not printed in blue and gold as planned, but was adorned, instead, with blue and orange edging and banners (figure on right). For a few years thereafter the order of the colors was interchangeable, but Orange and Blue eventually won out.
Florida Atlantic: navy, red, yellow
Florida State: garnet, gold (teams wear these shades) From Florida State's athletics site: Florida State's school colors of garnet and gold are a merging of the University's past. In 1904 and 1905 the Florida State College won football cham-pionships wearing purple and gold uniforms. When FSC became Florida State College for Women in 1905, the football team was forced to attend an all-male school in Gainesville. The following year, the FSCW student body selected crimson as the official school color. The administration in 1905 took crimson and combined it with the recognizable purple of the championship football teams to achieve the color garnet. The now-famous garnet and gold colors were first used on an FSU uniform in a 14-6 loss to Stetson on October 18, 1947.
Fresno State: cardinal red, blue From Fresno State's athletics site: The colors evolved out of an argument by women from Fresno Normal School and men from Fresno Junior College. The women were seeking blue and white to the men's red and white. A compromise was struck with the school adopting red and blue with a red later changed to Cardinal.
Georgia: red, black From Georgia's athletics site: "Turf wars" involving Georgia and its ancient rival, Georgia Tech, began with the playing of the first football game in the series. And the effect of the opponent's underhanded ploy in that 1893 contest resulted in the senior institution's removing the color gold (or yellow) from its official school colors.
In the December 1891 issue of The University's literary magazine, the editors-selected members of the Demosthenian and Phi Kappa literary societies-had proclaimed those colors to be "old gold, black, and crimson". This selection extended an earlier custom of each class selecting its colors and publishing them in the yearbook. However, Dr. Charles H. Herty-faculty member, the father of intercollegiate athletics' at The University, and her first football coach-saw "yellow", as he called it, not gold when he spied the hues on the cover of The Georgia University Magazine.
The 24-year-old holder of a doctorate from Johns Hopkins had led initial efforts to stimulate and harness school spirit, organized the school's first Athletic Association, and saw to it that yellow was eliminated from the colors. "Speaking with student leaders, We all agreed we didn't want yellow around Georgia athletics", reflecting extreme distaste for anything "yellow", or cowardly. (Early on, the "crimson" became good ol' Georgia "red".)
A mailed glove, however, was laid across the face of Georgia athletics that day the rivalry commenced. It was the "somebody-stole-my-gal" maneuver perpetrated by "the Teckity Techs" of '93. Earlier that season, the Techs had chosen as their colors white and gold. And they proceed to deck out 200 young ladies from all-girl Lucy Cobb Institute in those very hues to cheer on Tech's varsity at old Herty Field. Alas, the finishing school's campus lay just about a mile and one-half from the playing field-in Athens! "These are our girls!", the cry arose.
So, until this very day, when a Georgia Bulldog smells out a Georgia Tech "Yellow Jacket", he sees red.
Georgia Tech: white, gold (teams wear white, gold, and blue)
Idaho: silver, gold (football team wears black and gold)
Illinois: orange, blue (teams wear these shades)
Indiana: cream, crimson
Iowa: gold, black
Iowa State: red, gold, black, white
Kansas: crimson, blue
Kansas State: purple, white
Kent State: blue, gold From Kent State's web site: Kent State's school colors are blue and gold - purely by accident. In the 1910 state charter, the school colors were orange and purple. However, a local laundry changed the colors. The basketball uniforms, orange and purple when they went into the hot water, came back gold and blue-black. Word has it that the team and student body liked the new colors so well they adopted them as the new school colors.
Kentucky: blue, white From Kentucky's web site: The University of Kentucky adopted blue and white as its official colors in 1892. Originally, however, UK students had decided on blue and light yellow prior to the Kentucky-Centre College football game on December 19, 1891. The shade of blue, which is close to a royal blue, was chosen when a student asked the question, "What color blue?" At the time, Richard C. Stoll (who lettered in football at UK in 1889-94) pulled off his necktie and held it up. The students then adopted that particular shade of blue. A year later, UK students officially dropped the light yellow color for white.
LSU: purple, gold From LSU's web site: According to "The L Book," the LSU Student Handbook, the University's colors were originally supposed to be blue and white.
However, several players decided to enhance the importance of the team's first football game when the Fightin' Tigers went to New Orleans to take on Tulane University.
Professor and Head Coach Charles Coates, along with quarterback Ruffin Pleasant, went in search of ribbons to decorate the locker room.
Since it was nearing Mardi Gras, the colors green, purple and gold were abundant in the city.
The store they visited had not yet received its shipment of green streamers, so Coates and Pleasant bought out the store's entire supply of purple and gold ribbons.
They returned to the stadium, dressed up the locker room with the selected colors and purple and gold promptly became the colors of the LSU Fightin' Tigers.
Louisiana Tech: blue, red
Louisiana-Lafayette: vermilion, white
Louisiana-Monroe: maroon (teams wear maroon and gold)
Louisville: red, black
Marshall: green, white
Memphis: reflex blue, medium gray From Memphis' web site: Students in the first classes 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.)
Mercer: orange, black
Miami (FL): orange, green, white From Miami's athletics site: UM's school colors were selected in 1926. The colors of the Florida orange tree represent UM. Orange symbolizes the fruit of the tree, green represents the leaves and white, the blossoms.
Miami (OH): red, white From Miami's web site: Prior to the civil war Miami's library had fewer than 1,000 books, and according to Dr. Phillip Shriver, history professor and president emeritus, there was no need for a large literary facility.
The few books the university did own were housed in a room in Franklin Hall, now known as Harrison Hall.
To increase the size of this collection Rev. John Browne went on a two year east coast quest in search for new books. From 1810 to 1812, he gathered approximately 200 books to be brought back to Miami. These are the oldest books currently in Miami's librarie
Michigan: maize, azure blue (teams wear maize and dark blue) From Michigan's web site: 1867 - Maize and azure blue adopted as class colors by a student committee and become official school colors in 1912 by action of the regents.
Michigan State: green, white From Michigan State's athletics site: Details are sketchy as to when Michigan State athletic teams officially began using the school colors green and white. But records of the Athletic Association of the then Michigan Agricultural College show that on April 11, 1899, the organization took steps toward adoption of a green monogram, "to be worn only by athletes who subsequently take part in intercollegiate events."
It is generally thought the colors came into wide use with the arrival in 1903 of Chester L. Brewer as the school's first full-time director of athletics. Brewer also coached the Spartan football, basketball, baseball and track teams, the only varsity units in existence at the time.
Middle Tennessee State: royal blue, white
Mississippi: navy blue, cardinal red From Mississippi's athletics site: In 1893, when Ole Miss' first football team was in training for a five-game season, Dr. A.L. Bondurant, organizer and manager-coach, later recalled that "The team had much discussion as to the colors that should be adopted, but it was finally suggested by the manager that the union of the Crimson of Harvard and the Navy Blue of Yale would be very harmonious, and that it was well to have the spirit of both of these good colleges." These were adopted as the football colors, and have since been adopted by the University as its athletic colors.
Author's note: the red has since moved to a cardinal red.
On November 15, 1895, the first Mississippi A&M football team was preparing for a road trip to Jackson, Tenn., to play Southern Baptist University (now called Union University) the following day. Since every college was supposed to have its own uniform colors, the A&M student body requested that the school's team select a suitable combination.
Considering making this choice an honor, the inaugural State team gave the privilege to team captain W.M. Matthews. Accounts report that without hesitation Matthews chose Maroon and White.
In the 100 years since, every Mississippi State athlete has donned the Maroon and White in some sort of combination. Often a shade of gray has been added to the scheme, such as for the numerals. Briefly in the 1980s the men's and women's basketball teams wore all-gray uniforms with maroon and white trim, while football has at times sported silver game pants, and baseball will often wear all-gray road outfits.
Only once has a MSU team appeared in any other color combination. In 1938 football coach Spike Nelson secretly had cardinal and gold uniforms made for State, a selection that did not sit well with the team or the college at the first game. Neither the uniforms nor Nelson were back for the next season.
Missouri: gold, black
Navy: navy blue, gold
Nebraska: scarlet, cream
Nevada: silver, blue
Nevada-Las Vegas: scarlet, gray From UNLV's athletics site: The school colors of Scarlet and Gray can be traced to the late-1950s when UNLV adopted as mascot a wolf wearing a Confederate uniform. Scarlet and Gray were traditional colors of the Confederacy with its gray uniforms and red-based flag.
New Mexico: cherry, silver From New Mexico's web site: The most common origin of New Mexico's school colors dates back nearly 100 years. Apparently, the school colors in the early 1890s were black and gold. Ms. Harriet Jenness, a faculty member who taught drawing, delsarte (drama), penmanship and music, suggested a change in school colors because black and gold did not give a true feeling of New Mexico. She suggested the crimson evening glow of the majestic Sandia mountains to the east. The silver came from when students and faculty took picnics in the Sandias and noted the Rio Grande looked like a silver ribbon winding through the valley below. Her ideas were enthusiastically adopted by the faculty and staff. The crimson was later changed to cherry, the color of a Sandia sunset. Miss Jenness died in 1895, two years before the colors were adopted as "official." From 1973-79, turquoise was integrated into the official school colors, at least, for the athletics teams. The football team wore turquoise jerseys at home during those years. Cherry and silver returned as the predominant colors in 1980.
New Mexico State: crimson, white
North Carolina: Carolina blue, white (athletic teams wear dark blue trim) From North Carolina's athletics web site: The adoption of light blue and white as UNC's colors dates back to the 19th Century. When the University reopened following the Civil War, most social activities were directed by two literary societies, the Dialectic and Philanthropic. The official color of the Di was light blue and that of the Phi white. Since society membership was compulsory for all students, the opinions and activities of these organizations were by nature of circumstances all embracing. It was the custom for all men from localities west of Chapel Hill to affiliate with the Di and generally for students from the east to become members of the Phi.
On public occasions the student officers, marshals and ball managers were chosen equally from the membership of the two societies. It had long been the custom of each society for its members to wear its color on such occasions. However, the chief marshal and chief ball manager, one from the Di and the other from the Phi, wore combination light blue and white regalias and rosettes signifying that they represented the whole student bo
