Team all decked out in suits. I like it! Makes them look ready for work rather than just rolling out of bed like past years.
One of the line of security staff said that Strong asked them to hold the yellow tape 8 feet apart. Some stretches of it were more like four feet apart. So the players were up close and personal. The blue blazers, dress shirts, ties and khakis were a bad idea on August 30th in Austin. And the players didn't even look good in them. They were drenched in sweat by the time they got 2/3rds of the way through the walk. Navy blue in Austin on game day? It isn't Starkville or Louisville or Fayetteville in 1950.
