<P> The 1995 rule allowing LSU to wear white at home had one stipulation: the visiting team must agree for conference and non-conference games . In 1997, the SEC amended its rule to allow the home team its choice of jersey color for conference games without prior approval of the visiting team . Therefore, only for non-conference home games does the home team seek permission to wear white jerseys at home . In 2009, the NCAA further relaxed the previous rule that required most away teams to wear white . The rule now states that teams must simply wear contrasting colors . </P> <P> After the 1995 rule change, on three occasions LSU was forced to wear colored jerseys at Tiger Stadium . The first time was in 1996 against Vanderbilt, who was still angry at LSU for hiring Gerry DiNardo, who left Vanderbilt to become LSU's head coach after the 1994 season . LSU wore gold jerseys for that game (a 35--0 LSU victory), and fans were encouraged to wear white in an effort to "white out" the Commodores . The other was in 2004 when Oregon State did not want to suffer in its black jerseys due to the humid weather of Louisiana in late summer, thus forcing LSU to wear its purple jerseys for a nationally televised game on ESPN . On October 10, 2015, LSU was scheduled to play a road conference game at South Carolina, but due to massive flooding in the state of South Carolina, the game was relocated from Columbia to Baton Rouge . Despite the game being played at Tiger Stadium, South Carolina was still the designated home team and had first choice of jersey selection . South Carolina chose to wear white as they had originally planned, forcing LSU to wear their purple jerseys at Tiger Stadium for an SEC game for the first time since 1994 . </P> <P> After the 1995 rule change, LSU was forced to wear colored jerseys on the road on four occasions . In 1998 and 2000, Florida coach Steve Spurrier exercised this option and forced LSU to don a colored jersey at Gainesville . The Tigers wore gold in 1998 under Gerry DiNardo (lost 22--10) and purple in 2000 under Nick Saban (lost 41--9). In 2007 and 2009, LSU also wore its purple jerseys on the road at Mississippi State, but the Tigers emerged victorious both times (45--0 in 2007 and 30--26 in 2009). </P> <P> Callin' Baton Rouge--The Garth Brooks song "Callin' Baton Rouge" is played over the PA system in Tiger Stadium prior to kickoff for each game . </P>
