The Cowboys will have a new look when they take the field for America’s Greatest Homecoming.
Oklahoma State on Wednesday revealed new throwback uniforms that will debut against Arizona State at 6 p.m. Saturday. The helmet will feature a logo from the university’s Oklahoma A&M days. The uniforms will be the Cowboys’ usual black unis but with orange striping on long sleeves and socks. It will be the first time this season OSU has donned black jerseys.

According to a press release, the logo and stripes are some of the earliest known in school history to help commemorate the team’s 125th season. The “OA” logo was used for the emblem of the O.A. Association, which was organized in 1909 by the athletes of Oklahoma A&M College. That organization later became known as the “O” Club, then O-Club, and still rewards the “O” letter to varsity athletes today, commonly seen on letterman’s jackets. The helmet will also included a “125” decal on the back to commemorate the team’s 125th season and a front bumper decal of “OAMC” block letters. A cursive “Tigers” will be on the back bumper.
The widely spaced horizontal stripes are a nod to the university’s first team name of “Tigers,” which was the name of the school’s athletic teams before it was replaced with “Aggies” in the 1920s and ultimately “Cowboys.”
