Last season, the Ohio State Buckeyes debuted brand new alternate gray home uniforms for the first time during a game against the Michigan State Spartans. And it sounds like the Buckeyes will wear the gray version of their alternate uniform yet again this year.
According to a report from Ohio State beat writer Tony Gerdeman of Buckeye Huddle, Ohio State has announced that the team will be wearing their all-gray alternate uniforms for their Oct. 5 home game against the Iowa Hawkeyes.
“Ohio State announces the football team will be wearing alternate gray uniforms for the game against Iowa this season,” Gerdeman said in a post on X, the social media website that was formerly known as Twitter.
Obviously, this is a pretty big announcement considering the uniforms have only been worn once before, and it’s led to a lot of reactions on social media.
The Buckeyes will also Scarlet the Shoe against Nebraska on Oct. 26. Don't be surprised if scarlet pants make an appearance if it's a night game.

Ohio State will wear its alternate gray uniforms for the Oct. 5 game against Iowa.
The Oct. 26 homecoming matchup with Nebraska will be the "Scarlet out the 'shoe" game.

Ohio State now has several color combinations of its classic home uniform format with a gray, white, scarlet and black version of their jerseys and pants as well as a black helmet.
The gray version of the jerseys had never been worn before last season, but it seems like it might become a mainstay in the uniform rotation.
