LOOK: Illinois is wearing its Gray Ghost uniforms Saturday, were featured on SportsCenter
When you think of slick, new uniforms, which college football teams do you think of?
Oregon? Maryland? Wisconsin?
Wisconsin, not so much. What about Illinois?
The Fighting Illini seem to have fresh looking uniforms every so often, but aren’t typically known for its look. On Saturday against Purdue, however, Illinois will be sporting its Gray Ghost uniforms in honor of Red Grange.
SportsCenter took a quick look at the uniform combo:
