Ohio State will wear black uniforms for the first time in program history when it takes on Penn State on Oct. 17 for an 8 p.m. game at Ohio Stadium.
The Buckeyes, in conjunction with Nike, unveiled the new look on Saturday morning. The black uniforms have scarlet-colored numbers that are outlined in gray along with white and scarlet-striped sleeves.
