stoic-one 1,546 Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 The ESPN schedule has us listed 2nd, so I'm guessing we're the home team. But... It also says, "vs" and not "at", sooo... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigWhiskey91 632 Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Let me find the link, but I remember seeing we were the home team but wearing White. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to the contract released by the university, Auburn will receive a $4.2 million payout for playing in the game, which is the highest it has ever received for a neutral site game. The Tigers will be the home team and wear white, and they will be allotted 40,088 tickets. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.oanow.com/sports/college/auburn/football/auburn-to-face-washington-in-chick-fil-a-kickoff-game/article_a2cd4dbe-a1c2-11e6-8a0f-f7e28053bb31.amp.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigerbrotha12 2,362 Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Maybe Washington is wanting to wear a new uniform and we have agreed with them that we will wear white. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Win4AU 4,052 Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 I think orange is always good to wear unless we’re playing Clemson or UT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUsince72 11,084 Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Could it be that since the article so matter of factly said "be the home team and wear white" that it could simply be an error/typo? Seems they'd have sorta made a big deal about that fact to me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TXaubie 566 Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 From what I heard Gus wanted to wear white and use the visiting locker room. Not that he is superstitious or anything, but he was not trying to repeat the last two trips to that stadium. Now as as far as if we are considered the home team or not I don't think Gus can make that call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now as as far as if we are considered the home team or not I don't think Gus can make that call. IIRC, we are the home team and can decide uniform options. Much like how visitors can request they wear a certain color and the home team can approve. There are a few articles outlining that we are wearing white as the home team. But what you stated first is correct. Malzahn wants to take a different approach to change things up in ATL to help shake off the two losses last year in ATL. Being a neutral site, I think they approved with Washington as well since it would require them to wear a different top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiger 8,827 Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 I don't like that Gus felt like he had to switch things up -- using a different locker room, wearing white, etc. Those are not the types of changes I'm looking for from our staff coming off b2b losses in that stadium. I guess we'll see on gameday if we actually learned from our mistakes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They can get dressed on the bus for all I care as long as the thing that changes is we have more points on our side of the scoreboard than they do at the end of the game. If the players buy into it then I'm good with any change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The coaches and team always learn from different mistakes and try to correct them YOY...I have a good feeling Gus is doing more than just addresssing the locker room/uniforms.

I hope you're right but there's something different about a fan using a lucky t-shirt or a certain gameday ritual. I don't know how it makes me feel if a coach is thinking that "maybe we'll win if we change our jerseys". If anything it feeds into the bizarre thought that we somehow have bad mojo in the Mercedes Benz Stadium. Which we don't. We just have coaching brainfarts in there.
