Ohio State football teases then shows off alternate gray uniforms

What do you think of these Buckeye alternate uniforms? #GoBucks

Many of us love when [autotag]Ohio State football[/autotag] wears alternate uniforms, and its social media team did a great job building up some excitement for this weekend’s look.

As the Buckeyes are set to host Michigan State, they will be wearing a unique combination of all gray, with scarlet numbers and lettering.

The Ohio State football social media team started teasing the look on Sunday, just after the Buckeyes turned the page from Rutgers and are preparing to face the Spartans for another stop on a journey they hope ends with some pretty special things.

Take a look below at the multiple posts that were shared leading up to the reveal of the gray alternate Ohio State football uniforms.

Ohio State basketball throws out new uniform idea

The Ohio State social media department got bored and came up with perfection. Buckeye Nation needs to help make this a reality! #GoBucks

Here at Buckeyes Wire, we love all things uniforms. I mean, look good, play good… right? Well, it’s not always that simple, but the uniform game has become a big deal in recent years and Ohio State basketball has done an outstanding job of making what was old, new again.

In an effort to get fans more engaged in the process, the Ohio State hoops Twitter account will ask an opinion poll of what uniform fans would like to see. The choices are usually the Clark Kellogg throwbacks in scarlet or white, the Jimmy Jackson powder grays, or the modern look. The choice usually comes down to Kellogg 80s or the Jackson 90s look.

However, whoever the person is who runs the OSU basketball Twitter account may have just struck gold on a whim. What if we combined the script Buckeyes of the Kellogg era with the powder gray of the Jackson era? The result… flawless.

Take a look!

As the designer said, this isn’t a real uniform… yet. Giving fans some hope, it was stated that if we get enough retweets, maybe the idea could get presented for consideration. Could you imagine Ohio State taking the floor in powder gray script look? A mashing of two worlds to create perfection.

Let’s go Buckeye Nation! It’s time to do your thing and make this thing of beauty a reality!

LOOK. Ohio State unveils all-white uniforms to be worn for Illinois game Saturday

The Ohio State football team officially unveiled its all-white uniforms it will wear Saturday on the road at Illinois.

It was already teased and reported, but now we have an official look at the all-white uniforms the Ohio State football team will be wearing against Illinois this Saturday.

It’ll mark the first time OSU has worn alternate jerseys since the all-blacks were worn against Michigan State on October 5, and the first time alternate true road jerseys have been broken out since the game against Michigan in Ann Arbor on November 25, 2017.

These beauties will have a similar look to what we’ve seen before when Ohio State busted out the all-whites, except this time the traditional headgear with the Buckeye leaves will be worn as opposed to the alternate helmets with the wider scarlet striping.

Here’s a look at what Ohio State Football shared on its Twitter account Tuesday.

I have to admit, I’m not generally a fan of all-white ensembles, but Jonathon Cooper (if that is indeed him) looks pretty sharp in these duds. Let’s hope the team plays as good as it looks on Saturday at Noon on FS1.
