College Colors Day
College Colors Day is an annual celebration of school tradition and spirit where fans across the country wear the colors and apparel of their favorite college or university. The 2011 holiday falls on Friday, September 2. Nashville is kicking it off early and celebrating BIG this year. We're painting the town red, white and blue as the Hilltoppers of Western Kentucky University meet the University of Kentucky Wildcats on the gridiron.
Go Cats!

 My husband does, too! He has to work nights that week and plans to root for Oregon despite his fanatacism regarding the Tigers just so I'll have a miserable time at the game. It's just payback because he went to the LSU v Georgia game two or three years ago and left me on call in Maryland. Sucks to be him!

Now you've gone and put WC and I in the very uncomfortable position of hating you and loving your husband. 
We'd be happy to send him any Oregon shirt he wants while he cheers (and we have millions of options) because we'll need all the football mojo we can get.
Normally I wouldn't admit to that but since our star corner can't limit his penchant for speed to the football field and one of our starting linebackers can't stay out of the liquor cabinet and in his own residence - I'll own up to being worried about this one. Sigh...apparently expecting college students to be responsible for a whole freakin' 6 months is just too much to ask.

*fingers crossed for a good year*
I'm also hoping that this will be as wonderful as it seems: http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/news/story?id=6708649.
College football is the only thing that makes the end of summer not suck.

LOL. That stadium has been the bane of my existence since it went up. I'm sure that game will be incredible there, though
I can't wait for Michigan-Notre Dame. There is a group of us that watches this game yearly, and this year, it's a night game so it'll be even more exciting

Yeah, the tickets are hideous with a picture of the stadium behind the printing. No university logos. Just Jerry and his hubris. Oh...and a big silver star for the Cowboys.

I hope (for everyone's sake) that they finish up the roads by the time the game rolls around. They're still doing construction on the highway next to the stadium, and most of the surface streets are still pretty bad.
The last time I was in the area during a game was AWFUL. Traffic for miles and miles. I'll be sure to stay far away whenever i hear of a game going on lol
That being said, there are a lot of things to do around the stadium area, so after the game, y'all should be able to have fun!
