Here at BuckeyesWire, we love all things uniforms. I mean, look good, play good, right? Regardless of your personal opinion on the matter, alternate uniforms are here to stay. And it looks like Nike and Ohio State are cooking up something new for November 11.
The Ohio State Football official Twitter page posted a blank gray square with the exception of a single date. November 11 happens to be a Saturday on the calendar, one which the Buckeyes will take on Michigan State in a prime-time matchup on NBC. Could OSU be planning a special look for the game?

Many fans on social media are speculating. Several have offered, maybe even hoping, for the dark gray ensemble which was dubbed “Land of Wolves.” However, several have noted that the uniform donned against Penn State in a historic comeback circa 2017 has been retired. We have no official word on if that rumor is true or not.
Others have offered that Nike and Ohio State are going to be offering something entirely new. An all gray look with scarlet accents. Some on social media have offered this rendering, although again, it is all speculation.

If that is the look, you have to admit, it looks pretty sharp. Even the traditionalists can’t get too upset about this one as it stays true to the Scarlet and Gray.
Either way, something is coming on November 11 and the Ohio State PR team has done a great job of whetting the appetite. Stay tuned… when we know, you’ll know.
