Actually, it was the 1989 Big Game.  (It could not have been the 1990 Big Game, because it was at Berkeley, hence all white uniforms.  Remember the Revenge of the Play?)  As I recall, Bob Whitfield went to Denny Green with the idea.  Denny said, if all the players want it, then it\'s okay.  The team came out in warmups with the usual red top/white pants combo, then went back to the locker room.  They re-emerged with the complete red look.  (That 1989 game was significant, as it featured the emergence of Tommy Vardell.  The game-clinching TD drive was a long one that was untypically Stanford - it consisted entirely of running plays, with Vardell breaking free at the end.  We in the stands were wondering, "Who is that guy?")

The completely red outfit emerged again in the 1993 Big Game, which had a less that desired result.  That may be a reason we haven\'t seen it since.   And that\'s fine with me.  It looks too....Fresno State-ish.    :o
