Ohio State hints at possible alternate uniform for Oregon game

Oregon announced some time ago that its game with Ohio State would be a “blackout” game. The team will be wearing an all-black look from one of its many uniform combinations and has instructed fans to wear black to the game as well.

Well, the Ducks aren’t the only team in America with some alternate looks. Last week, the Buckeyes threw on the all-gray ensemble for Iowa and now there are hints of Ohio State wearing something non-traditional for the game in Eugene.

The official Ohio State Football X account flashed an image of a Buckeye helmet emerging from what looks like the wooded grounds of the Pacific Northwest as it gets covered with frost. This is leading many to believe that OSU will be wearing its all-white unis.

Ohio State has only worn the white shirt, white pants combo three times before, but it’s been a while. The first version was revealed in 2013 on the road against Michigan. That same version was worn a year later at Penn State.

A newer edition known as “sub-zero” has only been worn once before, which took place in 2020 at Michigan State. It should be noted, that all three games the all-white combo has been donned resulted in victory for the Buckeyes. Let’s hope for a fourth against the Ducks!
