Oregon fans, former players react to release of Ducks’ retro jerseys vs. Washington State
Oregon Duck fans have been waiting for this day since back in 2014 when the Marcus Mariota-led team took on the Washington Huskies at home.
The retro uniforms are officially back.
On Wednesday evening, the Ducks announced that they will be wearing the ‘Mighty Oregon’ retro uniforms this weekend during their homecoming game vs. the Washington State Cougars. It will be the first time that Oregon has played inside Autzen Stadium in over a month, with the last instance being against the Colorado Buffaloes in Week 4.
Nike has released a line of throwback merchandise that became available for order last Saturday, and fans have started getting their products in the mail this past week, so you can expect to see a lot of vintage Oregon apparel inside Autzen Stadium this weekend.
As you can expect, Oregon fans were incredibly excited with the news on Wednesday. Here are some of the best reactions online:

Washington State is bringing the heat this weekend as well.
These all-white kits up against Oregon's throwbacks? Man, this is going to be an ELITE uniform game. Our eyes are so lucky. https://t.co/srZN1txGFc
