All 12 teams were back in action. You know it's the Saturday before Halloween by the increase in black and other "scary" hijinks and a few "costumes."
ASU had teased a black & glow-in-the-dark "Ghost Story" uniform earlier in the season, but this weekend's later start and Halloween, make it more appropriate.
Oregon, did all the black it could for being a road team with its rather drab black helmets and black pants.
Even Stanford got into the act, with their second BFBS set of the season, but this time with a "twist" of e white helemt with black logo and red chrome stripe. Oh Cardinal, you are so daring!
Across the Bay, Cal also threw in a "twist" by kinda-sorta pulling out its now-annual Joe Roth throwback— It mixed old with new by pairing the Roth-style C lozenge logo and stripe on the helmet, with its normal navy jersey and gold pants. But the twist is that it used a current helmet that has the modern brighter yellow and darker blue instead of the cheerier Roth blue/gold.
Utah brought out a new hand-painted helmet with a "MUSS" Mighty Utah Student Section theme.
UCLA—also riding the throwback bandwagon during Homecoming honored its 1954 national championship team (why in 2023 and not 2024??) with very plain powder blue jerseys, and plain gold helmets and pants. All the shades seem to be 25% less saturated than the current blue and gold. Of note is that number font is back to UCLA's serif font which they have used some sort of font every few years.
Colorado—in LaLa land wore a classy black helmet and mono white with shiny gold details. Looked quite nice with UCLA's classy
