Michigan State on Wednesday unveiled a different set of uniforms that really weren’t all that different, and on Thursday Penn State did the same.
The Nittany Lions will honor their program’s history during a Sept. 30 game against Indiana with a new set of uniforms, drawing on details from decades past. And since Penn State’s uniform gimmick is that they have no gimmick, the end result is only slightly different than the kit the Nittany Lions take the field in every Saturday.

If I may break the glass on the Unpopular Opinion flame-retardant suit, these “throwback” uniforms should be Penn State’s new weekly look. The current look is boring.
There, I said it.
