Three weeks ago, Ohio State’s playoff uniform was unveiled, part of the “Diamond Quest” series of uniforms that will be worn by all four contenders in the inaugural College Football Playoff. The Buckeyes’ gear included a crimson jersey, notable because they’ll be the away team when they face off with Alabama and, as such, will wear white. So what will the team’s jersey actually look like come January 1? Well . . . this.
The white Ohio State playoff jersey will boast the diamond Swoosh on the chest that’s emblematic of Nike’s playoff uniforms, but that’s not it. It appears the shoulders will also employ a slightly different stripe layout, more aggressively incorporating grey and and red and downplaying the white. In the shoulder, anyway.
Check out a full look below, and stay tuned for plenty more College Football Playoff uniform updates as they break.
