The Ohio State basketball team did something not many teams often do, and that’s to put its uniform choice in the hands of fans. It shared a poll on Twitter Monday asking Buckeye fans to pick a uniform for it to wear against the rescheduled game against Penn State Wednesday.
There were a total of 14,946 votes (many hopefully coming from you), and at the end of it all, the throwback red jerseys are the ones that barely won out over the all-gray uniforms that have become a staple of the team’s ensemble. The new home whites and red away jerseys were a distant 3rd and 4th in the poll.
So, there you have it. The people have spoken and the classic eighties-style red jerseys are still a fan favorite. What we wonder is which uniform would win out between that one and the new all-black/gray (which is it) ones the team broke out against Wisconsin.
🗳 Vote now❗️

Maybe there will be another choice down the road where we get an answer to that. My money is on the slick ones that helped OSU to a road win against the Badgers.
