Indiana Basketball: Top 5 Basketball Uniforms in the Big Ten

#3 Ohio State

Ohio State has more modern-looking jerseys, which is counter to many others on this list. The lines on the uniforms are more sharp-looking, giving them an undeniable 21st-century flair, but it stays inside-the-box enough to be cool without being crazy.

Like Rutgers, the Buckeyes top is almost entirely bland: no arm-hole stripes or collar outlines. There is a tiny shoulder stripe that doesn’t even span across the whole shoulder. While it doesn’t look bad, I’m not sure this stripe adds a lot to the jersey as a whole.

The part of the Ohio State uniforms that does the talking is the shorts. Lines are a hard thing to pull off on a jersey, but the Buckeyes do it well. They are thin but feature every accent color in OSU’s palette, which makes the look feel complete. The stripes encase an Ohio State logo as well, which is a nice touch.

Ohio State’s jersey is more complicated than Rutgers’ or Iowa’s, but they still look crisp. It is an undoubtedly solid uniform which perfectly juggles the balance of looking modern without being too outside the box. That is probably the hardest of my criteria to meet, so props to Ohio State for being able to successfully walk that line.
