I’ve been told by a source close to the team that Oklahoma will wear the away alternate jerseys this weekend at Morgantown. I spoke to K about this as well and he said that he’s been told the same thing.
I personally don’t. Drake might. But like him, I was told that the alt unis were a go this weekend. Really hope we come out fast and put it on WVU. They’ve got some real offensive threats.
Working to confirm it, but my guess would be crimson wood-grained helmet with crimson pants and creme top. Black socks and shoes to finish their uniform attire.
Rico, thought the same, but OU only used alts during away game once. 2009 vs Tech. That team was an injury depleted team. I’ll go with that. Seems like this sooners team is really good. Should play better, imo.
Gotcha. I really don’t consider a simple gold trim around the numbers being alt unis. I get what he’s saying, though. That game was bad to start. Game plan wasn’t what it should’ve been and OU was playing first game w/o Corey Nelson, Jordan Phillips and an injury plagued Aaron Colvin. That hurt.
Man those pants look like they are made of that tissue paper they line gift bags with. I am a diehard Sooner but I will not pretend those unis are nice. Maybe they look better in real life?

Do we know the combination they will be using?

I guess as long as the team likes them and it gets their adrenaline going, I’m all for it.
Geezus, will they look like Nebraska?
we would have to suck to look like nebraska.
LOL!
hate the red pants everything else is cool
eh, it’ll be nice to see em in something a little different, but still us.
why away to use them?
Because there is an away and a home. I figure we gotta see the both this year. Right?
Yep. 2-3 games a year they’ll wear them, from what I’ve been told.
Can we bring back the pro combat style again. Even though we lost in 09 those were sick.
I see the new alternates as an enhanced version of those throwbacks.
I think my favorites in order would be:
1 New Home Alternate
2 Pro Combat
3 New Away Alternate
not to be debbie downer but in recent memory we have not done very well when we wear the alternate uniforms on the road.

He’s also referencing that game in Dallas last year.

Yes, but you could say the same for “Striping the Stadium” and that turned out fine this time.
I’m hoping for white helmet, white jersey, white pants. White out…
The crimson pants should never be worn… Those things are all sorts of awful.
This is a prime time game,WV is on a winning high, if the boys are excited about wearing them I say bring the wood!
Link to pictures of these again? I’ve forgotten what they look like.
If we lose, we will have a scapegoat.
Good call on this Drake. coach Stoops confirmed the Alt uniforms today.

Alternate uniforms away terrify me. They seem to be cursed
I’m watching the WV game right now. The OU uniforms look like something from Arena Football.
