Penn State To Wear Simpler Patch In Rose Bowl
Penn State football will roll with a stripped-back uniform patch for its 2023 Rose Bowl showdown with Utah.
In years past, teams have worn a circular white patch that typically features a sponsor and the rose logo. The Nittany Lions will wear just a stitched rose patch on their uniform this year, according to a game official.
The change for the 2023 showdown is due to a design update. The game didn’t secure its presenting sponsor, Prudential, until the last minute, which also played a factor in the change.
The last time the patch didn’t feature the white circular design was in 2014 when a special patch was broken out for the 100th annual Rose Bowl. The last time before that appears to be in 1999. In that game, UCLA wore a similar rose design to this year in addition to embroidered text.
As the away team, Penn State will also don its road white uniforms against the Utes. Utah will wear red uniforms with the same patch and a Rose design on its helmets.
