It's been a lengthy offseason, but at long last, football is just around the corner for the Oregon Ducks. Not only does that mean that fans can go back to watching and breaking down play on the field instead of theorizing about what's to come, but it also means that one of our favorite weekly traditions in Eugene has returned as well.
Uniform releases.
On Wednesday evening, the Ducks unveiled their Week 1 jerseys for their game against the Boise State Broncos. For the season-opener, Oregon will be rocking a green and yellow look, with yellow helmets, a green top, and yellow pants.
This look is similar to what we saw last year against the James Madison Dukes in the College Football Playoff, but with a yellow helmet instead of green.
While the uniform combo for this first game against Boise State is relatively tame compared to Oregon's standards, there is an early expectation that a couple of games will get some special jersey treatment in Eugene. Earlier this year, at Big Ten Media Days, tight end Jamari Johnson dropped a hint that the uniforms in Week 4 against the USC Trojans, and the final week of the year against the Washington Huskies, are going to be special.
