Michigan State football unveils new uniform combo for Purdue game

Michigan State unveils new uniform combo, helmet for Purdue game

We have noted this before, but I think it’s fair to say that Jonathan Smith has been a little more conservative when it comes to uniform choices for his Michigan State football team this year than what we’ve seen the past few seasons.

That being said, for Friday night’s match-up against Purdue, the Spartans will debut a new uniform combo that I don’t believe we’ve ever seen before. MSU will wear their standard home green jerseys with black pants and an awesome black helmet that appears to have some white specks dotted around it.

You can see the video debuting the new uniform combination below:

Jonathan Smith provides update on MSU football uniform combos

Apparently, one person makes the call on what Michigan State football wears on game days. That’s head coach Jonathan Smith.

Smith held his weekly press conference on Monday, and was asked about who decides what uniform combinations Michigan State wears on game day. He confirmed that he makes the call.

Check out the full quote from Smith — courtesy of Detroit Free Press reporter Chris Solari:

The question from 247Sports’ reporter Stephen Brooks comes after some backlash on the lack of uniform variety from the Spartans. Over the past few years, Michigan State wore different helmets and uniforms each week, but this season, the Spartans are keeping it standard from week to week.

Hopefully, Michigan State football will break out some new different helmets soon — including my personal favorites that include the Gruff Sparty logo.
