You can configure options for the sc in the kernel (taken from 4.x):
device          sc0     at isa? flags 0x100
options         SC_NORM_ATTR="(FG_GREEN|BG_BLACK)"
options         SC_NORM_REV_ATTR="(FG_BLACK|BG_GREEN)"
options         SC_KERNEL_CONS_ATTR="(FG_RED|BG_BLACK)"
options         SC_KERNEL_CONS_REV_ATTR="(FG_BLACK|BG_RED)"
options         SC_HISTORY_SIZE=512
