Purdue Unveils New 2024 Uniforms in EA College Football 25-Inspired Video

Purdue became the newest school to get a jersey refresh courtesy of Nike.

The Boilermakers unveiled the threads Thursday with a nod to the upcoming release of EA Sports College Football 25. The set includes a black home jersey with gold and white striping on the sleeve and pants, while the white road jersey has black and gold striping.

You wouldn’t be wrong for thinking you’ve seen this design elsewhere. Iowa State, Baylor and Minnesota got new uniforms this offseason from Nike, and they’re all similar to what Purdue will be wearing.

Were it not for that fact, the Boilermakers’ jerseys might be received a little differently.

The striping hearkens back to the height of the Joe Tiller era with Drew Brees at quarterback. The school donned a throwback from that time last season, satisfying the sense of nostalgia from the late 1990s and early 2000s.

Fans probably still have some questions following Thursday’s reveal since only two uniform sets were publicized. The inclusion of a gold jersey top is plausible given how that color has been utilized in the past. The same goes for black pants that would complete a monochrome home look on select dates.

Purdue is entering its second year with head coach Ryan Walters at the helm. The Boilermakers went 4-8 in 2023, and it could be similarly tough sledding for Walters and his staff.

The Big Ten is even stronger as a conference with Oregon, USC Washington and UCLA entering the fold. Purdue was also left to replace leading receiver Deion Burks, sack leader Nic Scourton and running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. among others.

The team opens with Indiana State on Aug. 31 before hosting Notre Dame on Sept. 14, a game that will serve as a barometer for whether this will be another season to forget in West Lafayette.
