Minnesota football has unveiled its uniform combo ahead of a B1G matchup with No. 16 Penn State.

The Golden Gophers will be rocking white jerseys and maroon pants with white accessories. Minnesota will bust out its gold-chrome helmets for the second time this season, which feature a maroon “M” on 1 side and Goldy Gopher on the other side.

The chrome is a twist on their traditional gold alternate helmets that Minnesota has yet to wear this season. The Gophers first wore the gold-chrome helmets in 2018 and have been a fan-favorite since.

Minnesota has an opportunity to upset the Nittany Lions on the road, who just took a beating in Ann Arbor, and get its season back on track. After starting the season 4-0, the Gophers have dropped their last two, both being against B1G West opponents.

A loss in Week 8 would most likely put them out of contention for the B1G title game, so maybe the helmets will be a sign of good luck.
