The Syracuse Orange are, of course, named for the color and as such, believe they’ve laid claim to it better than any other athletic program has. However, other major athletic programs do utilize shades of the color and you could argue some of them are even more associated with it than we are (Texas comes to mind there, on a national level). Other schools also have better versions of the color — Alex Kirshner called attention to one on Wednesday, which is how we got here.
So how does Syracuse stack up to these other orange schools?
