The announcement came one day after it teased Buckeye Nation with a social media post full of scarlet circle emojis. It also came two days after the school's associate athletic director for marketing and live events, Caleb Clark, posted that he looks forward to Buckeye Nation seeing "what we're cooking up" for the Tennessee game.

Sources told Eleven Warriors’ Josh Poloha that Ohio State is planning to wear its all-scarlet "Color Rush" uniforms with the addition of the gray sleeve stripes it typically wears on its College Football Playoff uniforms.

In 2021, Ohio State wore its all-scarlet uniforms in a 33-24 win over Penn State. The Buckeyes have not worn the uniforms for the past three Scarlet Outs: a 54-10 win over Iowa in 2022, a 20-12 win over Penn State in 2023 and a 21-17 win over Nebraska in 2024.
