Maize Out Saturday?

Submitted by brewandbluesaturdays on

Per instragram account @uofmdiehards saturday is to be a maize out... Can anyone confirm this? My typical lucky outfit consists of a blue michigan long sleeve sideline pullover, if this is true I will have to adjust.

What we need is a crowd that stands the entire game this Saturday and screams their fucking heads off the entire game .... and then be extra fucking loud on 3rd downs.   Colors are for TV  -  and doesn"t impact the other team.  CROWD NOISE DOES.

I'll be loud this Saturday, and in my new this season ... Harbaugh jersey !!!

Go Blue!

Look how far we have come in a year.  We are arguing over this topic instead of:

Fire (whoever is flavor of the week)

Does Manball work?

Impending DOOM

why are all our recruiting targets leaving us...

Blah blah Blah

You know, that's kind of where I was at with this one. After "Fire (insert name) and the 231,204,954 CC threads and all the agony of 2014, to watch the board debate the practicality / need for a Maize Out is just about the best mod experience I've had since I began in this role in 2013.

Every game should be a maize out, which includes giving everyone a pom pom, like in this picture.

 

 

Come on! That looks great!

If you don't have appropriate apparel, I highly suggest you invest in re-opening Steve & Barry's. Then we will all have access to this apparel at pennies-on-the-dollar. I am still so sad there was no way that business was sustainable.

i think Michigan needs to do a better job of getting the word out about maize outs. It's almost like they try to keep it on the down low.  They should post about it multiple times on social media. Pom poms make it look amazing regardless tho.

I will be shopping for a maize sweatshirt this week (sorry, maize jacket is not an option) and layer underneath if necessary. I absolutely love cold weather games, but previous suggestions that maize-outs happen for warmer weather games are spot on.

I repeat... DO NOT change up your lucky gameday gear. MSU won't notice one blue shirt in the sea of maize. Come on man, don't screw us here...

Since I graduated in 1975, Harbaugh-blue with maize lettering is the standard, classic look. Game-day shirts should say MICHIGAN and nothing else. My attitude used to be that if you wore something else, you were a marketing victim.

Times change, and though I still prefer the classic look, maize-out shirts are incredible in the Big House, and I love them at BB games as well.  

My game-day shirt is now maize, with the distressed-lettering, arched, MICHIGAN in Harbaugh-blue, purchased on State Street M Den for Harbaugh's debut against Oregon St.  I am awaiting Nike to get more Harbaugh-blue gear.

Give everyone Maize pom-poms, and even the people in Harbaugh-blue add to the effect. Cannot wait to see it on TV in Phoenix.  Remember, Maize is a bold and arrogant shade of yellow.   Amaizing!!!

The Maize Outs simply look better on TV and in person. You can hate the pom poms and like blue as a shirt color better, but if you've seen any team attempt a "blue out", they always look pretty uninspiring.

Also, for those who complain that you don't have a maize jacket. There's always the maize shirt over hoodee option or the option of buying a long sleeve maize shirt that costs like $10 just for these type of games. I do both and the only time I ever got cold was last year's Indiana game mainly because of the wind and the fact that there were 0 fans in my section.

Honestly, I could care less what people wear as long as they are making noise, but I don't really get people whining about the maize. There's a clear reason why the school prefers to use that color over blue.

HAPPENING..I fear MSU has been laying in the weeds for this game and we are going to see ALOT that hasnt been on tape yet... just cant believe that we are even part of these discussions right now..Its Incredible that we could have gone this far so quick....I fear the bubble bursting this week and I hate that feeling....Can they really do this one more time? against the #4 team in the country...Its like I have no right to even have that expectation and yet? Here it is....Biggest game for Michigan since the 1997 season in my opinion..Win this and its for REAL!
