Ohio State to wear 2002 throwbacks for Notre Dame game

Turn back the clock night…

It was already going to be a huge night in Columbus when No. 2 Ohio State welcomes No. 5 Notre Dame on the first Saturday of September to kickoff the 2022 college football season, but perhaps things got even bigger as the Buckeyes are set to wear throwback uniforms that night.

2022 is the 20th anniversary of Ohio State’s 2002 team that went unbeaten and won the national championship after upsetting Miami in the Fiesta Bowl.  They will honor the 2002 team that night and reports are that they will wear throwback uniforms to commemorate the anniversary.

It’s really not that much of a change from what Ohio State wears now as it’d appear the difference is just a change of the stripes on the shoulders, a slightly larger number font, and perhaps they’ll ditch that annoyingly large Big Ten logo for a night.  Take a look at Ohio State’s 2002 uniforms compared to their 2021 look below.
