Vanderbilt will celebrate College Colors Day on Thursday, Aug. 30 when the Commodores host South Carolina to open the 2012 football season.
The annual promotion that is organized by NCAA Football and The Collegiate Licensing Company, encourages fans to support their school by wearing their favorite college gear on that day.
Vanderbilt officials ask that fans wear black on Aug. 30 in support of the team’s blackout game against South Carolina. The players will also be wearing their all black uniforms for the game.
