Stripe Out Thursday at McKale
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.

If I wear blue, do I have to stand in the aisle?

+1. Absolutely......McKale never needs these gimmicks to draw attention and garner support. BTFD and lets beat Oregon on Thursday (Friday morning my time ).Merkin wrote:Not a big fan of any "out". Don't think McKale needs any help.

Re: Stripe Out Friday at McKale
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.

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.

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.

Re: Stripe Out Friday at McKale
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?ASUHATER! wrote:It doesn't impact anything and there's no point being so absurdly upset about it.97cats wrote:i don't give a f*ck who does what or when the f*ck they do it, these promo gimmick games are lame
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.Bangkok Wildcat wrote:

Re: Stripe Out Friday at McKale
Wouldn't buy one of those ugly Where's Waldo band shirts 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.
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.ASUHATER! wrote:It doesn't impact anything and there's no point being so absurdly upset about it.97cats wrote:i don't give a f*ck who does what or when the f*ck they do it, these promo gimmick games are lame

Re: Stripe Out Thursday at McKale
2-0 this week keeps us on target for another Pac title. Anything else likely means we're finishing between 2nd and 5th.
Re: Stripe Out Thursday at McKale
It's whatever to me. But I am in a red section and my son only owns navy UA shirts, and I sure as hell aint buying him a red one before the game

Re: Stripe Out Thursday at McKale
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.Beachcat97 wrote:So we open as a 6 point favorite tomorrow.

Still, the whatever-outs continue to suck.

I think 'Hater is too young to get the "jump off the bridge" reference.

Re: Stripe Out Thursday at McKale
interesting to see a few of these old post-game posts/opinions
January 28, 2016 - Arizona loses at home as the higher ranked team committing 19 turnovers in a loss to Oregon.
people have been cranky for a while now

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

Re: Stripe Out Thursday at McKale
I was hoping they went away after Byrne left. Does Bama now do these stupid color outs?
