While Ohio State and Nike remain mum on the topic, the retail version of the black jerseys the Buckeyes will wear against Penn State in two weeks – as well as other black merchandise – has started to surface online.
Listed as part of Nike's “Black Pack” on fanatics.com, the sporting goods retailer has the black jersey, a men's and women's black t-shirt featuring an “8” to represent the number of national championships Ohio State has won, as well as a brand new all-black Ohio State hat.
