Oregon still waiting on their opponent but at least they have their new cleats.

So my guess on the jersey's is we go with Yellow Pants, Green Jerseys and a White Helmet, all based on the Keystone Species graphic. I also think the white helmets may be what gave some people who claim to have seen them some pause.

From someone I trust, it sounds like the chrome helmets are going to be used with the green jerseys and the wings are being redone to match the green jerseys, similar to what Oregon did for the 2020 Rose Bowl against Wisconsin.

These were the helmets in that game.

Sounds like this, which I'm not sure would have caused the problem unless this is the "fix" to that "problem."

I think the triple mismatch with the chrome helmet, green jersey, and white pants are what's causing some issues for a few people. This is a combo that doesn't sound good on paper but ends up working in real life.

Unfortunately, Chip and Ryan Day seem to have figured out that they have great receivers. I was hoping they would stay stubborn.

A green and yellow Michigan style winged helmet would assure an Oregon win against tOSU.

The Tennessee defense has been VERY disappointing today. I have to imagine Oregon’s front seven will pressure Howard more than this and the secondary won’t let it be so easy for the Ohio State passing game. But when Ohio State’s offense is clicking on all cylinders they’re ridiculously scary.

Howard had all day, and multiple receivers open all night. Hopefully it’s more an indictment of Tenn’s poor D. Fuckeyes also had an O-lineman with a bad ankle. I’m sure Dan will dial up a D package that won’t wilt as easily as Tenn.

Ohio State certainly looked scary tonight but Tennessee looked really slow and outmatched tonight. It's going to be a battle in Pasadena against the Buckeyes.

Of all the opponents to play first. Sheesh.

Well, the Rose Bowl is the Grandaddy of them all. Oregon was likely going to have to play Ohio State eventually in these playoffs. I don't think anyone else was going to beat them. Hopefully Coach Lanning has another bag of tricks ready. I'm glad Ohio State has to travel at least.

If I was only looking at the score of the TN vs tOSU, I’d be terrified of tOSU, but half of TN’s team got hurt early, including one of the best players in the SEC (their running back). Their qb was green and awful under pressure. Their o-line, wr’s, and secondary were just terrible. OSU also caught some breaks early with a near fumble and a muffed punt. If OSU comes in thinking they’re as good as they thought they were going into the Michigan game, I’d love to see Howard start pressing again when it doesn’t come as easy.

I live in Columbus and I’ve watched just about every tOSU game this year. This is one of those “it all came together for them” games, not their norm. In close games, they’re stubbornly conservative. It’s who they are. I don’t see that changing.

OSU had an A game today. Hoping the law of large numbers puts their play next week in the middle of their play against michigan and tenn. If they play like they did today or even better, i’d be quite worried.

It sucks that it was such a lopsided victory that alot of the OSU starters didnt even get three full quarters of wear and tear.

Unfortunate first game for us. Everyone picked Tenn for the upset too, on twitter.

Hopefully this was the game that OSU played lights out and next game they even out by playing severely under their normal play.
Tennessee gave zero resilience or challenge it was disappointing.
