The Maryland football team will be taking the field this weekend for its homecoming game against the Indiana Hoosiers.
For the special occasion, the Terrapins will be paying homage to the 125 years of Maryland football with some incredible black and gold throwback uniforms.
The uniforms — which feature horizontal black stripes across the front of a yellow jersey and black numbers on a yellow helmet — were inspired by the uniforms the Terrapins wore during the 1940’s.
Check them out below:
