LOOK: Ducks unveil splashy uniform combo for 2023 season-opener vs. Portland State

🟢🦆 The uniform combination for Oregon’s season-opener vs. Portland State just dropped 🦆🌕

Oregon Duck fans have been waiting patiently for eight months to watch their favorite team take the field again at the start of the 2023 college football season.

Now they know what their favorite team will be wearing once they step out onto Rich Brooks Field at Autzen Stadium Saturday afternoon to face the Portland State Vikings.

The Ducks unveiled their uniform combo for the Week 1 matchup on Wednesday evening, showing off an all-yellow color combo modeled by Jamal Hill.

The black helmet, yellow jersey, and yellow pants combo is a classic look that certainly is fitting for a season opener.

While a lot of Oregon fans were hoping that 2023 would be a year where new jersey templates were introduced, I can report that we will likely have to wait until next year for that to happen. Instead, the Ducks are planning a couple of one-off jerseys this season, with a variety of new helmets and cleats that will be introduced throughout the season.

Here is a closer look at the jerseys that Oregon will be wearing this weekend against the Vikings:

LOOK: No. 10 Oregon Ducks announce ‘eggshell’ uniform combination for marquee game vs. UCLA

The Oregon Ducks unveiled a new ‘eggshell’ uniform combination for the marquee matchup vs. UCLA.

If you’re in tune with the subtle hat-tipping that goes on in the social media world, you might have seen this one coming. The Oregon Ducks released their uniform combination for the marquee matchup against the UCLA Bruins on Thursday evening, unveiling a different look than what we’ve seen before.

Oregon’s road combination in front of a College Gameday audience will include a ‘eggshell’ look that is white and black speckled, almost looking like a cookies and cream ice cream.

For anyone who was paying attention to the Ducks on Twitter this week, the speckled theme is no surprise. New Oregon merchandise was released recently with this pattern on the jersey, and as 247 Sports’ Jared Mack pointed out on Wednesday, the Oregon Ducks’ official Twitter account changed their main image to an Oregon ‘O’ with the same pattern.

Coincidence? Not for those who know where to look.

Regardless of if you were ready to the release or not, Oregon will once again be donning some state-of-the-art uniforms against UCLA on Saturday, with a national ESPN audience tuning in. After impressing with the all-black ensemble against Cal a week ago, we can hope that their play holds up to the level of swagger on the field.
