The Ohio football team will wear special decals on its helmets to honor victims of child abuse when it meets Penn State next Saturday in the season opener for both teams.
The Bobcats' equipment staff has been working with the Penn State athletic department to design the stickers, which will mirror patches worn by the Nittany Lions throughout the season.
The gesture is meant "to join the Penn State team in showing support for child abuse victims," Ohio athletic director Jim Schnaus wrote in an email to Yahoo! Sports on Saturday.
The game is Penn State's first since the conviction of former assistant coach Jerry Sandusky, who was found guilty in June of 45 criminal counts of sexual abuse of 10 boys. It will also be the team's first game under new coach Bill O'Brien, who said on the first day of practice earlier this month, "We have to understand our responsibilities to children."
Penn State was dealt major NCAA sanctions after the Sandusky conviction and the ensuing Freeh Commission report, which was ordered by the school itself. The sanctions included a $60 million penalty, a four-year football postseason ban and a vacating of all wins dating back to 1998.
Ohio's decision to wear the decals was finalized late this week. According to the NCAA, no other teams have thus far requested permission to wear special decals in games against Penn State this season.
Ohio is coming off its first 10-win season since 1968 and its first bowl win, a 24-23 victory over Utah State in the Famous Idaho Potato Bowl.

The Oregon "What to Wear" guide is out. It typically matches up with the uniform color the team wears that day (at least for home games).
New uniforms for UAB:
Love the lack of the ugly side panel ... but seriously, I think they just became a high school team.

Not sure if they have been banned by the NCAA....but I miss those "team-specific" color shields for the helmet
UniWatch covers pretty much all uniforms changes here:

Technically, everything non-clear has been banned. I think they just didn't take the time to remove the dark shields (and knew people enjoyed playing with them).Originally Posted by Papa LoneStar

--First I would like to see Florida's team accessory color corrected from blue to orange. It should be orange so that they cleats and knee braces are orange like they are in reality.
--New player models or. Please correct the way Revolution helmets fit on the head. They are perfect in Madden 13, but look horrible in NCAA. They sit down too far on the head and cover the eyes. And the masks stick out too far. I would love to see player models enhanced like what's in madden. Helmets, flak jackets, back plates, etc all look better.
--Also add the two new helmet styles that are in Madden. One is the Rawlings, not sure the other.
--Add all of the new facemask styles for the Revo Speed helmets. A lot of popular designs are missing.
--ALTERNATE TEAM COLORS!!!! Please make 2 team colors available for teams.
--New Nike cleats that don't have the black Nike logo on them. New Adidas cleats as the ones in the game are awful and look generic.
--Make the bicep, leg, and forearm bands a little thinner so that they do not look like big rings around the players.
--Wouldn't mind seeing better dread locks and long hair for the white guys.
--Add a QB Wrist option for the waist. Have a handwarmer and QB wrist to choose from.
--Eye paint, tape, and nose tape.
--Maybe some other small details like back plates hanging out of a jersey.
--Better styled ankle tape.
Damn those cleats r pretty sick.no,will indeed have new cleats this year. dont know yet if they're just for home or away games. my guess would be away games.

Here's how the final Arkansas State helmet looks...
I mentioned in an earlier post about player models and helmets not looking right in NCAA 13 compared to Madden 13. Here's some photos showing the differences.
You notice how Madden's Revo helmets sit on the head correctly to where you can clearly see the eyes, compared to NCAA's where you can't see the eyes. From the side view, you can cleary see the eyes in the Madden photos and the facemask covers the lower part of the nose compared to NCAA's where the mask sits below the nose. I love the Revo helmets, I wish they were modeled better in NCAA.
FAU debuted their new uniforms last night. (Click on Photo Gallery)
