Ohio State football is wearing alternate, Color Rush scarlet jerseys. Here's a look at past OSU alternates

The Ohio State football team will wear a jersey combo that they’ve never worn before when they take on the Penn State Nittany Lions at 7:30 p.m. Saturday inside Ohio Stadium.

The hope is that the Nike Color Rush scarlet jerseys match all the shirts inside the Horseshoe as Ohio State is pushing fans to “Scarlet the Shoe” against Penn State. 

The jerseys should pop out like tie on a fancy suit. While the helmets will be the same, the jerseys will be scarlet tops and scarlet pants and even scarlet shoes.

Ohio State has done alternate jerseys before, but this look -- perhaps a bloody ode to Halloween on Sunday -- is one they’ve yet to wear.

On ESPN College GameDay, co-host Lee Corso picked the Buckeyes, citing the all scarlet jerseys. 

Ohio State teased the look on Twitter earlier this week:

Here's what the Shoe could look like on Saturday:

While Ohio State is no Oregon, which ironically is the only team to beat the Buckeyes entering Week 9, Ohio State has had some different jerseys over the years.

Let's take a look.

Ohio State football alternate jersey history

The first time wearing an alternate jersey was in 2009 against Michigan. The Buckeyes won 21-10.

A year later, Ohio State beat Michigan 37-7 wearing scarlet tops and helmets and grey pants.

On Oct. 29, 2011, Ohio State upset No. 12 Wisconsin wearing alternate jerseys:

In 2012, Urban Meyer became the coach and Ohio State went back to the alternate look against Michigan. They won 26-21.

They wore those similar jerseys in 2013 when they beat Penn State 63-14.

That same season, Ohio State again wore those alternates, but this time they wore white.
