Outfit Idea #1:
We’re starting out with Ole Miss inspired outfits! You won’t find game day tops more unique and festive than a red satin top with a gigantic bow like in the picture.
And the blue paisley top the girl on the right is wearing? So cute! We’ve got to talk about the go go boots.
These are some of the most bold and powerful looking boots around, so if you’re looking for a statement shoe to bring your look together, definitely consider go go boots.
The Ole Miss pins make a great addition as well! What an awesome way to finish off the look and show off some school pride.

Outfit Idea #2:
Next are these outfits inspired by University of Florida fans.
These looks are perfect for hot weather game days and will definitely help keep you cool without sacrificing style!
I’m loving the feminine touches on the tennis skirt, fishnet stockings, and lace bralette.
Pair them with sportier pieces like t-shirts, sports bras, or jerseys to make the perfect game day look.
These girls’ outfits match each other really well, too! There’s another fun idea to do with your friends on game day - coordinate outfits with one another so your group matches.
Outfit Idea #3:
I love all three looks in this next inspiration image! There’s something for everyone here.
For girls who love their jeans, t-shirts, and trucker hats, you’ll definitely want to try the look all the way on the left.
If you love to experiment with more unique pieces, why not go with the middle look?
For hot game days, you can’t go wrong with a crop top and biker shorts in your school colors to stay cool and still look dressed up.
Pair all of these looks with gold jewelry and classic white sneakers, and you’re good to go!
Outfit Idea #4:
Next, we’re visiting Ohio State University! I’ve been seeing one shoulder crop tops everywhere lately, and they’re perfect for game day thanks to them being breathable and comfy.
If you have no idea what to wear to the game, try starting with one of these tops with your school’s branding or colors on it.
From there, you can pair your top with almost any sort of pants, shorts, jeans, or skirt and white sneakers for a simple and cute game day outfit that’s easy to put together.
The red heart sunglasses are a really cute touch, too. Sunglasses are one of those things you definitely don’t want to forget when going to a football game.
If it’s a sunny day or if the game takes place while the sun is setting, you’ll get a strong glare.
Without sunglasses, that’ll impact your ability to see what’s happening on the field.

Outfit Idea #5:
Out next stop in this list of college football game day outfits is Michigan State inspired.
I’m definitely loving the cheerleader vibes I get from these looks, so if you’re a fan of that style, definitely try these outfits for yourself.
This is a pretty simple look to recreate, too! You’ll just need a tube top or crop top and matching skirt.
For shoes, try any sort of sneakers. Tennis shoes or Converse are a great place to start.
These girls use scrunchies and hair ties around their wrists as accessories which is a cute look and extra convenient if you need to put your hair up when at the game.

Outfit Idea #6:
And now for a stop in Alabama. I’m personally a big fan of wearing jerseys, so I especially love this look.
You might want to wear a jersey for days that are warm but not super hot since they’re still lightweight but offer more coverage than crop tops.
Whether you want to pair it with long jeans or shorts is up to you - and the weather!
Either way, remember that jerseys often fit large, so unless you’re going for an oversized look, I recommend tucking it into your pants or using a hair tie to crop it a bit.
For shoes, ankle boots will look really cute here. These are especially perfect for fall games!
Outfit Idea #7:
Next is a cute Auburn inspired look. If you love fun patterns and colors, definitely try incorporating some tie dye into your game day outfit.
Tie dye outfits give me major hot weather game day vibes!
It makes for a cute and festive look that pairs really well with plain skirts and shorts to balance out the look.
You can find a lot of super cute tops like the one in this picture on Etsy.
A lot of shops offer custom options, so if you don’t see one for your school you can still order a custom top to wear on game day.
The chunky gold jewelry works so well with this outfit, too! Pieces like these are perfect if you’re looking for ways to accessorize your look.

Outfit Idea #8:
These outfits are ones perfect for fall and early winter games, or for anyone who just loves sweaters.
I love sweaters but let’s face it, they aren’t always the most flattering. Add a turtleneck or some cute cutouts, and that instantly changes!
To recreate this look, find a thick ribbed sweater and pair it with a pair of leather shorts or skirt.
The ribbed material isn’t one I’d expect to pair well with shiny leather, but they surprisingly compliment each other really well!
You can try out a cropped sweater like the girl on the right, or go for more of an oversized look and tuck your top into your bottoms with a belt like the girl on the left.
Finish off the look with some matching ankle boots, a hand bag, and some cool pins to represent your school.
Outfit Idea #9:
For the next look in this post on college football game day outfit ideas, we’re going in a completely different direction.
If dresses and heels are more your style, here’s a look you’ll love!
Fitted dresses like these are really flattering and the small cutout on the bottom is so cute.
This is an outfit where the accessories can really shine. For accessories, try pieces like hair ribbons, scrunchies, claw clips, school pins, shoulder bags, bandanas, heels, and chunky jewelry.
I can also see this type of dress being paired with chunky white sneakers and a baseball cap if you want go for more of a sporty vibe.

Outfit Idea #10:
For the last outfit idea, I found a really cute red and black look inspired by a Georgia fan.
This is one that’s definitely up my alley since it’s very simple and casual!
Find a t-shirt with your school’s logo or colors on it, and tuck into a pair of simple shorts or a denim skirt.
For the shoes, tennis shoes are the perfect choice to complete this look.
This isn’t really part of the outfit, but you’ll definitely want to bring some sort of “spirit device” to the game.
Whether it’s pom poms, clappers, signs, towels, or something else, they add a lot to the game day experience and are in general super fun.
Speaking of things to bring to a football game, I’m also loving those portable mini chairs in the photo.
If you’re heading to a game right after or during a rain shower, bringing something like that or even a towel to sit on will not only save your outfit but also save you from sitting on a wet, cold metal bench for three hours.
