Whoever decided on the fan color designations for Auburn's home game against Clemson was clearly not thinking. Not only do the two teams share a mascot type of a Tiger, but they share the color orange. They are a different shade of orange, but that doesn't matter if you ask thousands of people to just wear an orange shirt to your game.

While the Clemson Tigers are used to big and intense crowds, seeing some sort of orange in the crowd is probably going to ease them into playing at Jordan-Hare Stadium. That was not one of Auburn's smarter moves before the season starts.
The War Eagle fans will be wearing Orange for games against Clemson, Arkansas State, and LSU and Navy for Arkansas and Vanderbilt. They will "stripe the stadium" against Texas A&M.
