Virginia Tech Hokies football team will sport New York Yankees logo on its helmets for 2021 Pinstripe Bowl

The Virginia Tech Hokies will sport the logo of their hosts, the New York Yankees, for Wednesday's New Era Pinstripe Bowl (2:15 p.m. ET, ESPN). The 6-6 Hokies will face the 6-6 Maryland Terrapins in the annual bowl game played at Yankee Stadium.

The Hokies won't be wearing pinstripes, but their helmets will feature the Yankees' interlocking "NY" logo on one side and Virginia Tech's usual "VT" logo on the other side.

The uniform addition continues a relationship with the Yankees that dates back to the shooting on Virginia Tech's campus on April 16, 2007, which killed 33 people, including the shooter.
