The uniforms feature a gold jersey with throwback wing-like stripes on the shoulders to go along with gold pants and gold socks. The helmet features a gold facemask as well as a thick gold stripe down the middle.
The time for the Penn State game has yet to be determined. The game will also serve as the team’s “Stripeout” game, in which each section in the stands alternates wearing black and gold.
