"As Clemson's founder, Tillman seemed to represent the very 'white savage' that he described in his speeches. Volatile, uncouth, missing an eye, and clad in unfashionable clothes, Tillman was easily seen as the embodiment of the Southern "poor white," a man with hatred for "the negro" flowing in his veins. Tillman represented an ignorant, intolerant white South that had seized the reins of power from a more cautious elite that, whatever its faults, had sought peace through compromise and accommodation." - Stephen Kantrowitz, Ben Tillman and the Reconstruction of White Supremacy

At least at Georgia that is still the thing to for the man in frats. I expect that is the case at most SEC schools but could be wrong.
The hotties at 11:05 now look like this...
How did Florida play in the Sugar Bowl that year? The SEC Champion always went to the Sugar, and Florida never won it until 1991. I think Bama won the SEC that year.
Still not used to seeing men in white shirts and black ties en masse in public. Those times are long gone.
I wore a tie to games because I was in the Corps of Cadets. I forgot about the ties donned by the frat boys while I was teaching at AU.
Sorry, that was just never the case in the SWC or the Big 12. Still making the cultural trasition to the SEC...

Lots of students still wear ties to games in the south.

The weirdest thing to me was the ref's wearing knickers.
