Oregon State Uniform Schedule 2026: Every Jersey and When the Beavers Wear It

Oregon State spent two years as a football independent and comes back into a conference in 2026, and the uniforms came along for the ride. This is the full Oregon State 2026 uniform schedule: the black home set, the all white road look, the orange jersey sitting in the closet, the white helmet the Beavers have worn in both games so far, and a week by week outlook for all twelve games in JaMarcus Shephard's first season. We update this page as each combination is confirmed.

The Oregon State 2026 Uniform Sets

Everything in that grid dates to July 2024, when Nike and Oregon State tore up the 2019 look and rebuilt it around the BEAVS chest wordmark, jerseys and pants in black, white, orange and graphite, and helmets in black, white and orange. It was the program's first redesign in five years, and it arrived at the worst possible moment for exposure, in the middle of the two seasons Oregon State spent without a conference.

The Beavers have been quieter than most about their weekly combinations. There is no uniform reveal graphic on a set day of the week the way Michigan State or Washington State run it, though the program has put out a proper reveal for a season opener before, so the closet gets shown off when there is a reason to show it off.

That leaves the broadcast as the source of truth, and two games in the pattern is easy to read: white helmet every week so far, white jersey and pants on the road at Houston, black jersey and pants at home against Texas Tech. Pac-12 home teams wear color and visitors wear white, which locks in every road date and turns every home date into a question of black, orange or something new.

The Full Oregon State 2026 Uniform Schedule, Week by Week

September 5 at Houston. ★ Confirmed from the broadcast: white helmet, white jersey, white pants, head to toe white for a 9 a.m. Pacific kickoff at TDECU Stadium. The orange and black center stripe on the white shell and the orange trim on the sleeves are the only color on the field. Houston won 33-20 in red jerseys and white pants, and our Houston 2026 uniform schedule has the Cougars' side of it.

September 12 vs. Texas Tech. ★ Confirmed from the broadcast: white helmet, black jersey, black pants, the full home blackout under the white shell with the orange script on the side. Texas Tech visited in white helmets and white jerseys, so the contrast was total. The Red Raiders won 35-24. Worth flagging: our Texas Tech 2026 uniform schedule currently describes the Beavers as black over white, and the frames show black pants, not white.

September 19 vs. Montana. Black expected. An 8 p.m. Pacific kickoff at Reser Stadium on USA Network against the FCS Grizzlies, the game Oregon State added to this schedule back in April 2025 when the independent years were still being patched over.

September 26 at UTEP. White expected. A 6 p.m. Pacific kickoff at the Sun Bowl in El Paso and the last of the four non-conference games the new Pac-12 front-loaded onto everybody's schedule.

October 3 at Colorado State. White expected. The Pac-12 opener at Canvas Stadium, 3 p.m. Pacific on USA Network, with the Rams expected in green. See the Colorado State 2026 uniform schedule for their side.

October 10 vs. San Diego State. Black expected. First conference home game, 3 p.m. Pacific.

October 17 vs. Washington State. Black expected. The first of two meetings with the Cougars, because the Pac-12 flex week sends these two at each other again in November. Washington State is a mix and match program, so this is the best color clash on the home slate.

October 24. Bye.

October 31 at Fresno State. White expected. Halloween night at Valley Children's Stadium, 8 p.m. Pacific.

November 7 vs. Texas State. Black expected. A 7:30 p.m. Pacific kickoff on The CW, the only Reser date this season on that network.

November 14 at Boise State. White expected. Oregon State in white on the blue turf is one of the better visuals of the year. The Boise State 2026 uniform schedule covers what the Broncos put on top of it.

November 21 vs. Utah State. Black expected. Senior Day at Reser and the last guaranteed home game, 7:30 p.m. Pacific on CBS Sports Network. If Oregon State has an alternate saved for 2026, this is the date to watch.

November 28 at Washington State, flex week. White expected. The Pac-12 built its calendar around a Week 13 flex game that does not count in the conference standings and is not locked in until six days out. The projected pairing sends Oregon State to Pullman, with Washington State holding the guaranteed home game.

The Bottom Line

Two games, two uniforms, one helmet. Oregon State has gone all white on the road and all black at home, both times under the white shell, which is the least predictable part of the whole thing and the detail to keep watching. The orange jersey and the black and orange helmets from the 2024 Nike redesign are all still sitting in the closet, and the Beavers have six more home dates plus a flex trip to Pullman to use them. The grid above has every game, and we fill in a star as each combination is confirmed.
