After returning to the win column with a Week 10 victory over the Iowa State Cyclones, the Texas Tech Red Raiders will face another test against the No. 20-ranked Colorado Buffaloes on Saturday.

In their bout with the Deion Sanders-led Buffs, the Red Raiders will debut their new “Mahomes Strategy” uniforms, a nod to Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes and his partnership with Adidas. The threads will feature the former Texas Tech standout’s “Gladiator” logo on the jersey.

“Seeing my own logo on the Texas Tech uniform I put so much blood, sweat and tears in is one of the most meaningful off-field accomplishments of my career,” Mahomes said in a news release.

Here are the best uniforms from Week 11 in college football.

The UCLA Bruins will honor their 1954 national championship team for homecoming with a special throwback uniform against the Iowa Hawkeyes. The threads mirror the look the Bruins wore from 1954 to 1970.

The No. 1-ranked Oregon Ducks will revive their “Gang Green” jerseys with the bottoms of the “Mighty Ducks” combination they wore in Week 5 against the Maryland Terrapins. The Ducks wore the green jerseys in Week 1 against the Idaho Vandals.

The Towson Tigers will wear an all-gray uniform with a special helmet against the Hampton Pirates for their military appreciation game. The all-gray uniform will feature a lid containing the stars and stripes in a unique Towson logo, which will also be featured in the visor.

Duke is on a two-game losing streak, looking to find its groove with a triumph against the in-state rival NC State Wolfpack. The Blue Devils will wear a white-on-black combination with a black helmet.

The Boise State Broncos have made a name for themselves this season. Now ranked No. 12 in the latest AP poll, the Broncos have also elevated their uniform game. They will wear an all-black look against the Nevada Wolf Pack on Saturday.

Although the Oregon State Beavers are sitting at .500 on the season, they’re still sitting at the top of the Pac-12 standings. This week against the San José State Spartans, the Beavers will wear a military appreciation uniform that features camouflage numbering.
