roxfan00 Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 When was the last time Ohio State had the huge numbers on the shoulders? This is from the 1990 Liberty Bowl against Air Force.

Dynasty Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 I'm pretty sure 1995 was the last time they wore it. I could be wrong, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJWalker45 Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 1995. When they switched to Nike they went to tackle twill numbers and Nike could not replicate the larger numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j'villejags Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 I wasn't sure of the year but it reminds me of Eddie George. I've got an Ohio State Eddie George jersey with those big numbers on it.

Harmening Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 Imagine what they would look like nowadays, since shoulder pads have become so much smaller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roxfan00 Posted August 16, 2015 Author Share Posted August 16, 2015 Imagine what they would look like nowadays, since shoulder pads have become so much smaller.Probably cover the whole top shoulder and seep over to the side.

oldschoolvikings Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 I know as a graduate and fan of the Ohio State University, I'm supposed to love the oversized TV numbers, but I just don't.IMO, this is the best tOSU has looked since the 70's...Put the black TV numbers on the road, and you've got the perfect set... no alts need apply. http://dstewartpaint.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dynasty Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 To me, the black numbers looked out of place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ohio State needs to back to this minus the larger shoulder numbers. Only because they would cover the whole shoulder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sport Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 I know as a graduate and fan of the Ohio State University, I'm supposed to love the oversized TV numbers, but I just don't.IMO, this is the best tOSU has looked since the 70's...Put the black TV numbers on the road, and you've got the perfect set... no alts need apply.I can go either way. I love the giant TV numbers because that's what I grew up with, but the black numbers are an awesome quirk and a cool throwemback to when those unis first came to be in the 60's. Mostly though, as long as those stripes are back on the sleeves I'll be happy.Winning the first ever playoff was cool. Doing it in these uniforms made it even cooler*waits for some boob to tell me those stripes don't work on a modern jersey* - beat it, guy. I think they look fine.
