This is the way WVU should look. "Of course, that's just my opinion. I could be wrong." Dennis Miller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would like to see us have the same stripe as we have on the helmet used down the side of our pants. Just never a fan of the yoga pants look (for any team at any level of football) Jerseys and helmet I like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your alternates are pretty good for one-offs, but for a prime time game on Thanksgiving weekend, please stick to the primaries. Sincerely, Some random guy on the internet OU seem to always wear those jerseys against WVU, with the exception of last year, and our first two years in the Big 12. 2016 2015 2014 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JPDesign Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 @JosiahWVU Yep. OU has worn their alternates on every trip to Morgantown since they were created. And, as you pointed out, they also wore them in Norman against WVU in 2015. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know for a fact Nike made and delivered the uniforms (they’re sitting in the Woody Hayes Athletic Center as we speak) and the program commissioned retailers to make 1968 national championship gear for this weekend, so the plan changed at some point in the last few weeks. Not sure why, but I wager it was superstition from the staff and/or saving them for a potential playoff run (would be easy to replace the solid-color Nike swoosh with the diamond quest swoosh).

MJWalker45 Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 I'm not sure if this was brought up but last week Ohio State's scout teams wore Michigan helmets and jerseys during the week. I believe Michigan actually started the trend of teams doing this but Ohio State has been doing this for at least three years I believe. @AndrewMLind Am I right?

AndrewMLind Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 The tradition actually started during Jim Tressel’s tenure, but Ohio State doesn’t allow media to watch in-season practices and the football program didn’t have a social media account until Spring 2016, so that fall was the first time we really saw it in action. Here’s a Columbus Dispatch article from 2008 that references it: https://www.dispatch.com/article/20081229/NEWS/312299732 "I've got to make sure this thing is lined up right," Kyle Ruhl said. He was covering his silver Ohio State football helmet with blue tape and gold decals, transforming it into a winged Michigan helmet. And with that seemingly traitorous act, Ruhl once again assumed his important but unsung role in preparing the Buckeyes for another opponent. As part of the "scout team," his job is to become the enemy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's one thing to transform your Ohio State helmet into a Michigan helmet...but adding fake Michigan pride stickers is bumping it up a notch. Smart is believing half of what you hear.

MJWalker45 Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 Army tweeted a picture of the box from Vicis with their Army-Navy helmets inside. Still no actual pictures though. This uniform better make people's heads melt like opening the Arc of the Covenant. Some cool tidbits from Army vs Navy: - When Army and Navy met on Dec. 2, 1939, the captains of the respective teams were both Kankakee (IL) High School graduates and former gridiron teammates. They were Allen Bergner, the Navy captain, and Harry Stella, the Army captain. - Contest christened Soldier Field - On Nov. 27, 1926, the game was held in Chicago for the formal dedication of Soldier Field in honor of the American servicemen who had fought in World War I. Instant replay ushered in - Instant television replay made its American debut in the 1963 Army-Navy game.
