Portland, OR, September 23, 2026 —

The No. 20 Oregon Ducks football program has announced a special uniform combination for their upcoming game against the No. 12 USC Trojans. The team revealed on Friday that they will be sporting a “Stormtrooper”-themed ensemble for Saturday’s contest.

This distinctive uniform set is characterized by its predominantly white and black color scheme, evoking the iconic imagery of the Stormtroopers from the Star Wars franchise. The specifics of the design, including helmet, jersey, and pant elements, were part of the reveal.

The game is scheduled to take place at the LA Memorial Coliseum, a notable venue for this Pac-12 conference matchup. Both teams are ranked, with Oregon at No. 20 and USC at No. 12 in the national polls. The uniform reveal is a recurring element for the Oregon Ducks, known for their innovative and frequently changing uniform designs throughout the season.

Details regarding the exact inspiration for the “Stormtrooper” moniker or specific design elements beyond the color scheme were not provided in the announcement. The trend of specialized uniforms for high-profile games has become a significant part of college football’s marketing and fan engagement strategies, with teams often using these unique looks to generate buzz and honor specific themes or rivalries.

The focus for the Ducks and Trojans will now shift to the on-field competition. This game represents a key conference fixture, with implications for both teams’ season trajectories and rankings. The outcome at the LA Memorial Coliseum is anticipated to be closely watched by college football analysts and fans alike. The uniform choice, while a point of pre-game interest, remains secondary to the athletic performance expected from both the No. 20 Oregon Ducks and the No. 12 USC Trojans.
