LOOK: Arkansas uniforms draw praise, Ohio State comparisons

Published:
Arkansas debuted some alternate uniforms on Saturday in Arlington, Texas against Texas A&M.
They were a tribute to Jerry Jones, the owner of the Dallas Cowboys, who also play in AT&T Stadium where Saturday’s SEC game was played. Jones played for Arkansas and was a member of the 1964 national championship team.
The early reaction to the uniforms drew mostly comparisons to Ohio State, though one person even tweeted they resembled New Mexico.

Arkansas' uniforms are aesthetically good-looking, but….. they don't look like Arkansas.

Bold move for Arkansas to come out wearing Ohio State uniforms today against Texas A&M. Lets see if it pays off.
