Those pants are going to make a few players resemble sumo wrestlers with tights on underneath the loin cloth.
All we need now are some cod pieces...

Oh and thank god we're using a 'rivalry' uniform, otherwise I wouldn't know this was a rivalry

Meh, Im not afraid to say the jerseys look cool. The large scarlet numbers remind me of the 90s and at least they aren't featuring colors that aren't Buckeye colors. Looking at schools that have done alternate uniforms and how badly they have turned out, it could have been much worse.

I like the idea of an all white over an all black uniform. Do I prefer the traditional uniforms for THE GAME? Sure do. I absolutely love the tradition rich history and lore in which college football is built on. But you have to be real and understand that Nike = money, and money is what all colleges are after. With that said, at least there are aspects of these uniforms that are actually pretty cool looking.

I think these would have been better received by some fans had they been worn mid-season.

Eh. Missing the gray. Again. Nike, throw in some gray in the stripes and make the pants gray and get back to me. At least the helmets look like Ohio State, which is more than can be said for some past iterations.

Those helmets you are referring to were the norm for their eras in the 40's, 50's and 60's. Look at historic pictures to see.

From Nike's press release:
The team's rich legacy and history of the 1950 “snow bowl” serve as the core inspiration

Ugh. Get rid of the freaking large stripe on the helmet, I hate it. Honestly the silver metallic helmet with no stripe and some retro Buckeye leaves with the metallic silver pants would be pretty sick.
