The Ducks are wearing green-black-black for the first time since the Belotti era—his last game to be exact.
The Ducks in 2007 and 2008 wore this combo 4 times, including the Sun Bowl and Holiday Bowl, just before the Chip Kelly era. This was the era of the first shoulder designs-namely green with diamond plate, but still the mallard green color changing helmets that are much darker than this apple green. But fore that it was a very common home look when the shoulders and side stripes contrasted with the black uniform. This was a definitive Joey Harrington look.
IMHO, I wish they had gone more traditional and colorful vs. Penn State, but this dark look is similar to the 2 most important wins this season.
