The '74 Mich-OSU game was on ESPN Classic on Wednesday.Steelers wore white pants with white jerseys for sure in 1970. NFL Films' year-ender highlight film shows Steelers in white pants with the white jerseys, but yellow pants with black jerseys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
