Michigan Wolverines football will take on Purdue Saturday night at The Big House, and the program announced Friday afternoon that they’ll wear blue jerseys with blue pants and accessories.

Here’s a look at what Michigan will wear against the Boilermakers:

This is Michigan’s fifth of six home games this season. The Wolverines have worn their traditional home uniform combination, blue on maize, three times, for the 34-17 season opening win against New Mexico, 63-3 victory over Central Michigan Sept. 13 and 24-7 triumph over Washington Oct. 18. Michigan sported blue pants in the 24-10 win over Wisconsin Oct. 4. This will be the second home game and fourth overall contest that the Wolverines sport blue pants.

Michigan typically goes with maize pants at home but often mixes it up with blue pants. The Wolverines have only sported blue pants 27 times in program history — including in 14 home tilts.

Here’s a look at Michigan’s games with blue pants since 2021:
