With bowl season and the inaugural 12-team college football playoff near, teams are stepping up their on-field looks in Week 12.
Coming off a 26-21 road loss in Week 10 to Washington and a open date last week, USC (4-5) is seeking a win against Big Ten foe Nebraska (5-4).
But this isn’t just any game for the Trojans. It marks the school’s homecoming weekend. In the game against Nebraska, USC will pay homage to its 1972 national championship team with a throwback alternate uniform.
One of the notable differences in the throwback threads, as opposed to USC’s primary uniform, is the three stripes on the shoulders where the jersey number usually is. The shoulder stripes were discontinued in 2002 with the uniform’s newest version.

Here are the best college football uniforms from Week 12.
With a projected bye in the new playoff format, No. 1-ranked Oregon continues to impress with its on-field looks. In the game against Wisconsin, the Ducks will combine their “Fly Era” jersey and “Warp Speed” bottoms. Oregon defeated Ohio State in the Fly Era uniform and beat Michigan in the Warp Speed threads.
Ascending always.

Georgia State is looking to end its six-game losing streak when it faces Arkansas State. With hope that the look will catapult the Panthers into the win column, the team will wear an all-black uniform that features the location of its campus, Atlanta, which is written on the chest of the jersey.
