Ohio State is Urban Meyer's team now, but that hasn't stopped the Buckeyes and Nike from paying tribute to the school's winningest coach on their Sugar Bowl uniforms. 

When No. 4 OSU takes on top-ranked Alabama on January 1, Meyer's squad will wear undershirts and gloves printed with notes from Woody Hayes, who led the Buckeyes to 205 wins from 1951-78.

More details on how the design came about, from Nike:

The athletic department saved one of Hayes' last "chalk board" sessions and enshrined it in Buckeye Football history. The baselayer pattern features a literal print of Woody Hayes' hand written notes for a book he was working on.

And here's an overall look at the uniforms:

Well done, OSU -- but how does it compare to Oregon's Rose Bowl getup?
