Most top teams in Week 3 of the 2026 college football season are in their standard sets: home teams in color, visitors in white. The exceptions are Texas Tech's all-black Patrick Mahomes "Let's Ride" uniform against Houston on Friday, Missouri's Memorial Stadium 100th anniversary throwback against Troy, Utah's white Ute Proud helmet against Utah State, BYU's navy-trimmed whites at Colorado State and Florida's orange pants at Auburn, all announced. Since Wednesday, Miami, Houston, Oregon, Kentucky, Louisville, Tennessee, TCU, Virginia and Purdue have also posted their Week 3 combinations. Ole Miss and Florida State, the two biggest open questions, had not as of Thursday morning.
Looking for this weekend? Week 4 is here: College Football Week 4 Uniforms 2026, with Oregon's Warp Speed at USC, Texas in all white at Tennessee and every Top 25 look.
Below is every game this week involving an AP Top 25 team or one of the 43 programs we track in our college uniform schedules, with kickoff time, TV, the final score and what each team actually wore. A look is marked Confirmed when we have seen it in a broadcast frame or in the school's own game photography, and left as expected when we never got a clear look, which happened more often than usual this week because so many of these games were on networks that feed ESPN nothing. ESPN and the AP poll call this Week 3. All times are Eastern.
Games of the Week
No. 7 LSU at No. 8 Ole Miss
Saturday, 7:30 p.m., ABC. College GameDay was in Oxford. Ole Miss won 32-24. Lane Kiffin brought LSU back to the program he left at the end of 2025, and this was the most-watched uniform decision of the weekend. Ole Miss answered it with POWDER BLUE: powder blue helmet, powder blue jersey and white pants, the full set, with the end zones painted to match. Red and navy were both live and the Rebels never announced it. LSU wore white with the gold helmet and gold pants. The Rebels wore the full powder blue set (powder blue helmet, powder blue jersey, white pants) against LSU in 2025 and won 24-19. Through two games in 2026 they have worn navy and then red, both under the navy helmet with gray pants. Ole Miss had called a Stripe Out in the stands, which is a fan theme and not a uniform, and the Rebels never posted a combination graphic at all. More: LSU schedule and Ole Miss schedule.
Florida State at No. 10 Alabama
Saturday, 3:30 p.m., ABC. Alabama won 50-36. This was the return game from FSU's 31-17 win in Tallahassee last season, and it carried the week's second real uniform question. Florida State answered it with GARNET PANTS, under the gold helmet and the white road jersey. Gold is the traditional road pairing and the Seminoles never posted the combination in game week, so the broadcast settled it. It is the same call FSU made at Stanford last season. Alabama wore crimson, the only home look it owns: crimson helmet with the player's number, crimson jersey, white pants. More: Alabama schedule and Florida State schedule.
No. 2 Georgia at Arkansas
Saturday, noon, ABC. Georgia won 45-17. Georgia: confirmed in white, the road set of red helmet with the oval G, white jersey and silver britches. The all-white look with the first white helmet in program history was a one-game alternate, worn against Western Kentucky last week. Arkansas: confirmed in cardinal, with white pants and the cardinal helmet. Arkansas called a Stripe Out in the stands, with fans in alternating sections wearing red or white, and did not change the uniform. More: Georgia schedule and Arkansas schedule.
Florida at Auburn
Saturday, 7 p.m., ESPN. Florida won 44-39. Florida's first trip to Jordan-Hare since 2011, and both sides wore exactly what the week said they would. Florida wore the orange helmet, white jersey and orange pants, straight off the full-season uniform schedule the Gators published in August, one of only two dates on it that carry the orange pants. Auburn wore the home default, white helmet with the navy AU, navy jersey, white pants. Navy against white and orange under the lights, as billed. More: Florida schedule and Auburn schedule.
No. 22 Houston at No. 13 Texas Tech
Friday, 8 p.m., FOX. Texas Tech won 28-26. Texas Tech wore the Patrick Mahomes "Let's Ride" set, the third Mahomes uniform from adidas in three years: all black, red block numbers, black pants, black helmet, the Gladiator logo worked in and his name across the back bumper, with the State Farm logo on the jersey that Texas Tech had confirmed on the Wednesday. Houston wore the Icy Whites, the set it posted as "Icy whites for Game 3": white helmet with the red interlocking UH and a red facemask, white jersey with the red Houston script, white pants. Both held. More: Texas Tech schedule.
No. 16 SMU at No. 23 Louisville
Saturday, 3:30 p.m., ESPN2. Louisville won 41-31. The ACC opener for both teams and the only ranked game in the afternoon window. Louisville wore the red set it posted on the Thursday under "Keeping it classic": white helmet, red jersey, white pants. The week before, Louisville had paired the red jersey with a Salute to Service helmet; the all-black For The Ville alternate is still held for Stanford on October 31. SMU went all white, which is what we had down for it without an announcement. More: SMU schedule and Louisville schedule.

- TCU, new helmet look (Confirmed). TCU teased a "new look this weekend" on Thursday, posted the full set and then wore it against Arkansas State: a white helmet with a Frogs script, purple jersey and white pants.

The jersey was the open question and the Bears answered it with gold over gold under the green shell, matching the Gold Rush theme in the stands rather than leaving it to the crowd.

- Kentucky: Confirmed, all white, its first white of the season, the same Week 3 uniform combo it posted.

Florida State at No. 10 Alabama, 3:30 p.m., ABC. Alabama won 50-36.
- Florida State: Confirmed, gold helmet, white jersey, garnet pants. That answers the biggest open uniform question of the week. Gold is the traditional road pairing and FSU went garnet instead, the same call it made at Stanford last season.

James Madison answered in head to toe white and switched from the gold helmet it had worn in both home games to the white shell. Confirmed a day late, from San Diego State's own game photography, because The CW fed no frames.
The Five Unconfirmed Games Are Now Confirmed
Five cells were still open on Saturday night, when four broadcasts fed ESPN nothing and a fifth had no usable frame of one team. All five closed on Sunday, every one of them off school photography rather than television. Two earlier-window games, Indiana against Western Kentucky and Iowa against Northern Iowa, are still waiting on a published frame and are marked as expected where they appear above. Colorado at Northwestern came off the list on Sunday: Northwestern posted its own game photography from the lakefront stadium, and it shows the Wildcats in purple head to toe and the Buffaloes in a full road whiteout, white helmet with the gold interlocking CU, white jersey, white pants. Northwestern won 41-7. Fresno State at San Jose State came off it too, from San Jose State's own photography: the Bulldogs in the red helmet, white jersey and red pants that their road look at USC had pointed to, the Spartans in blue over blue, Fresno State 26-10 to keep the Valley Trophy. Arizona answered the open red question: Tre Spivey's postgame interview shows the red jersey, so the Wildcats wore red for their own Hispanic Heritage red-out rather than the navy we had penciled in, and their win graphic puts a white helmet and white pants with it in the 42-17 win over Northern Illinois. Marshall wore white head to toe at Missouri State, white helmet with the green M included, which took two sources: the Herd's own highlight reel with the 17-10 scorebug in frame for the jersey and pants, and Missouri State's game photography for the shell. Marshall won 30-24. And the one that mattered most closed last: Maryland did wear the Los Terps helmet, the red shell with the script wordmark and the accent over the o, over the red home jersey and white pants on Hispanic Heritage Night. Maryland's own photography put two of them at the line of scrimmage at full size. Virginia Tech won 35-26 in head to toe white.
What Was Worn Friday and in the Early Window
Every Friday night reveal held. Wake Forest wore Dark Mode head to toe and lost 33-20 to Miami in all white, Texas Tech wore the Mahomes Let's Ride blackout and beat Houston 28-26 with the Cougars in their Icy Whites, and Oregon wore all green in an 84-0 win over Portland State. Saturday's early window went to form: Georgia in white with silver britches at Arkansas in cardinal, Penn State in navy over white, Kansas State in purple over silver, Ohio State in the core scarlet and silver set with none of its three alternates, and North Carolina in Carolina blue pants at Clemson in orange over white before the weather stopped that one. Arizona State brought the gold Sparky helmet and a white jersey to Wembley and won 24-17, with Kansas in blue on blue on blue as the designated home team.
The Bottom Line
This was billed as a week of standard uniforms with big games, and the standard part did not entirely hold. Both of the real open questions got answered, and both went the less obvious way: Ole Miss came out in the full powder blue set for LSU on GameDay night, with the end zones painted to match, and won 32-24; and Florida State put garnet pants under the gold helmet at Bryant-Denny rather than the traditional gold. What the afternoon and night windows actually produced was a run of pants changes nobody announced: South Carolina went garnet head to toe instead of white pants, Washington swapped gold pants for white, East Carolina put purple under the road whites, USF wore green over green for the first time this year, Liberty skipped its red home set for the navy alternate, and Oklahoma State pulled out the orange shell for the first time in 2026. Two more looks arrived without a reveal at all: Colorado State's green home set, which the Rams had never shown publicly in their first adidas season and simply wore against BYU, and Tulsa's red throwback, which the program unveiled without naming a game and then put on three days later. The announced specials all held: Texas Tech's Let's Ride, Missouri's centennial throwback, Utah's Ute Proud helmet, TCU's Frogs script helmet, BYU's navy-trimmed whites, Florida's orange pants and UCF's Knightmode. San Diego State's Age of the Jaguar took an extra day, because The CW fed no frames and the only images in existence on Saturday night were the reveal shoot, but the school's own game photography landed on Sunday morning and the red over red is confirmed.

What is Florida State wearing at Alabama?
Florida State wore the gold helmet, white jersey and garnet pants at Bryant-Denny Stadium, confirmed from the broadcast.
