Nike has officially unveiled the throwback uniforms the Oklahoma football team will wear Saturday against Texas Tech.The unveiling was made in a post on the Nike Football Twitter account that said "Here it is Sooner fans - the new Nike Pro Combat uniform for Saturday's game."
According to Nike.com, the inspiration for the uniform was OU's 1955 national championship team.
The throwback look features white helmets with a crimson stripe and gray facemask. The uniform is a white jersey with white pants.
"Sooners" is embroidered in crimson script on the back of the pants along the top, and the words "Sooner Magic" are embroidered on the inside of the jersey collar.
