2021 College Colors Day Celebrates That Feeling When it's USU's Football Season Again

College Colors Day – the annual holiday that celebrates collegiate fandom – returns on Friday, September 3, ahead of the 2021 college football season’s opening weekend. The 17th annual College Colors Day encourages Aggie fans from coast-to-coast to don their favorite Utah State University apparel on a single day to showcase how the sport can bring people together.

Created by the University’s exclusive licensing partner, CLC, College Colors Day unites USU fans across the country in showing their passion, spirit, and the joy of supporting the Aggies by wearing Utah State gear and sharing pictures and videos on social media using #CollegeColorsDay.

“The connection that Aggie fans have is so powerful because it’s about belonging to o passionate community bound together by common traditions and spirit,” said Nicole Armentrout, Senior Vice President, Marketing at CLC. “Coming off an unprecedented year for fans due to the COVID-19 pandemic, this year’s College Colors Day highlights that feeling when you can reunite with other Aggie fans to cheer on your team. We can’t wait to see thousands of Aggie fans posting pictures of themselves wearing their Aggie gear on College Colors Day to share their excitement for the upcoming season.”

In addition to showing their spirit, Aggie fans are invited to visit www.CollegeColorsDay.com weekly to enter for a chance to win USU gear, as well as a chance to win tickets and a trip to the national championship game in Indianapolis through CLC’s partnership with the College Football Playoff (CFP) and its charitable arm, Extra Yard for Teachers. The website also contains graphics and resources for fans to celebrate College Colors Day, including a “meme generator” to create fun, sharable memes focused on their fandom.

“We want all Utah State fans to wear their gear and show their spirit for College Colors Day,” said Aggie Football Coach Blake Anderson. “Mark your calendars for September 3, grab your gear, and show the world why Utah State University is the best,”

After an unprecedented Fall 2020, this year’s college football season is among the most anticipated in recent memory. College Colors Day offers Utah State fans everywhere an opportunity to reignite the connection and camaraderie formed by wearing their Aggie Blue and Fighting White. Whether it’s the joy of attending a game in-person for the first time since the pandemic or gathering again with friends to watch from home, every fan is encouraged to show what “That Feeling When” means to them this College Colors Day.
