Louisville will be an "Orange britches" game

We only wear the Orange pants when a championship is on the line. If we beat Louisville, we win the Atlantic Division despite having 1 conference game remaining since we own all the tiebreakers over WF and Syracuse who currently have 1 loss in the division.

Well we haven't had this situation before. I know it's Military Appreciation, but it's also for the division. I could definitely see purple/orange combo.

You are right...looks like we have. I know we've worn the combo several times, but I couldn't recall a time during Dabo's tenure that Military Appreciation day and a division-clinching home game happened at the same time. 2009 might have been the last time it's happened.

I think we might be wearing purple tops and orange bottoms — that would be weird

See Ga Tech game in 2003.
However, my opinion is that Military Appreciation Day trumps the orange pants and we'll be in all purple.

If I HAD a vote, I would certainly vote for that. Military

tradition at Clemson should trump orange britches tradition, every single time. If not for our military, we would not have the freedom to DISCUSS such trivial matters.

If Syracuse and Wake lose another ACC game between now and when we play Louisville, orange pants will be a mute point. We would have already clinched the division and thus no need to wear orange pants. I don’t get the fascination with uniform colors anyway.
