Why have one Big Red when you can have 113.
WKU football released their uniforms for next Thursdays red-out game against UTEP with a X post Wednesday, featuring the beloved mascot’s eyes on red helmets. The headgear will be paired with red uniforms and red pants.
Last year’s position-specific Big Red helmets garnered over 11 million social media impressions according to a press release from WKU football. According to the press release, this is the first time the Hilltopers will wear red helmets since the mid-2000’s.
Kickoff for WKU’s game against UTEP is scheduled for 7 p.m. The game will be the first in a month-long stretch of weekday games.
