The majority of the Big-10 were fighting their rivals. Oregon wore a classic combo—but for the first time wince 1997! and Purdue went all black with script helmet. All the rest were standard issue combos, with the battle for LA being a traditional color-on-color.
Minnesota, playing at Wrigley Field in Chicago, opted to decorate their helmet with ivy, while Northwestern wore their annual Gothic uniform. Oregon wore more black for their big game against USC, but the rest of the Big 10 was normal.
The second week of Veteran/Military commemoration happened with a heavy dose of camo and more flags:
Washington pulled out a new all-camo purple and gold set. Illinois and MSU were much more subtle by putting camo in their helmet stripe. Flag decals appeared on Illinois, Northwestern and Washington.
A pretty quiet slate of game with no team pulling out any special uniforms, but Iowa and Rutgers did flag decals on their logo for Veterans Day.
One third of the conference was off this weekend, and the rest had an odd mix of Halloween and Military appreciation.
Minnesota especially was odd with all black uniform but with a white helmet that had a random patriotic stripe. Nebraska resurrected its "Blackshirt" set which IMHO looked pretty good.
Another funny thing is 9 of the 12 teams playing opted for mono below the neck.
