Stripe Out Thursday at McKale

Post by Merkin »

Not a big fan of any "out". Don't think McKale needs any help.


The UA will hold a "stripe-out" for Friday night's game against Oregon State. Which color should you wear? Check the map and find out.

You'd think the Star would get that right. Not exactly hard to look up.

+1. Absolutely......McKale never needs these gimmicks to draw attention and garner support. BTFD and lets beat Oregon on Thursday (Friday morning my time ;-) ).

I guess Michigan state's whiteouts are gimmick's. And every other big program's whatever outs. Everyone does it, big programs and small.
i was going to put the ua/asu records here...but i forgot what they were.

i'll just go with fuck asu.

This question makes no sense.

But also neither does the whining about something that doesn't negatively impact the program and is something that pretty much every program from final four participants to the tiniest division I team that's never been to the tournament does.

:lol:

Calm down guys. We all know McKale doesn't need a gimmick's to sell tickets. Majority of the games have been sold out since 2013. In Miller's first year, maybe.

It doesn't impact anything and there's no point being so absurdly upset about it.

Side note......I know I'm poorly supplied with UA gear having spent so many years over here BUT who the heck has striped UA shirts? I see the Zoo and Band wear them but are they popular? is this just a ploy to sell striped gear?

Honestly, I thought it was just the Zoo and/or Band uniforms.....they look a bit too busy for me to ever want one. I would prefer a red, blue or white out instead.

On another note, what's our recent record with these things?....I seem to remember several years ago when UW was really good that it seemed like we weren't too successful with these.....just my superstitious side concern ;-)

The arena is striped, not individuals. Some people wear red, some wear white, depending on what section they are in.

Just sells more UA crap I don't want. If I was sitting in a white shirt area, I would have to go out an buy a white shirt which I really don't want to do since I don't wear white ever.

My favorite axiom in sports is: "Act like you have been there before". Like Cal rushing the court at Haas Saturday. Really? Need to rush the floor? Not like UA was ranked #1. Cats weren't even first place in the PAC.

2-0 this week keeps us on target for another Pac title. Anything else likely means we're finishing between 2nd and 5th.

So we open as a 6 point favorite tomorrow. Not a betting man, and I would never bet against AZ, but that's a lot of points to be giving a good Oregon team.

We are much better at home. After we drilled UW (who is doing very well) and WSU, it does not surprise me. That is obviously no guarantee.

I was trying to sound like someone's mother. That question has never made sense.

Still, the whatever-outs continue to suck.

January 28, 2016 - Arizona loses at home as the higher ranked team committing 19 turnovers in a loss to Oregon.

These color outs rarely seem to go well. Wish we'd stop them.
