I knew there was a PMS#, I just couldn't think of it and I didn't want to be the first one to type PMS.

Back in the day there was a flower that grew on campas that was orange and that is where they founded Tenn. orange. I dont know the name of the flower.

I think it was an American Daisy, but I could be wrong.

If I had to guess, Florida's colors are the result of a trip to New Orleans and a visit to one of the all male revue bars.

Alabama was originally going for all white since they knew they would always be holier than thou in their recruiting but admired the two color scheme after a severe catchup spill on their robes after a rally.
