When the Syracuse Orange host the Wake Forest Demon Deacons next weekend for their season-opener, they will actually be wearing jerseys that match the color that is literally in their name.
I didn't know you could do that.
SU director of football operations Drew Robinson tweeted last night that SU would wear the new all Orange uniforms on Sept. 2 vs Wake Forest

The game is also apparently going to be an Orange Out, which actually makes sense this year. As for your question about purchasing one of those new sweet orange jerseys, well, that's a dumb question. Of course you can't.
While some feel that SU would be better served saving the new orange jerseys for the higher-profile game against the LSU Tigers, I think it's better to premiere the unis in a game that the Orange have a good chance to win. Get some positive momentum under the new look and then, God willing, just stick with that because IT'S THE NAME OF THE F***ING TEAM.
Meanwhile, Stephen Bailey says Robinson also noted that SU will wear the "traditional" blue jerseys with orange pants against the Rhode Island Rams this Friday.
