Pitt-WVU Backyard Brawl to feature Nike Pro Combat uniforms

Pitt and West Virginia will be dressed for combat during the 103rd Backyard Brawl.

When they meet Nov. 26 at Heinz Field, the teams will wear Nike Pro Combat System of Dress, uniforms designed to represent Pitt’s ties to the steel industry and pay respect to the deadly explosion at West Virginia’s Upper Big Branch mine this past April.

The Big East Conference rivals are among 10 schools whose football teams will wear the Nike Pro Combat uniforms this season, joining Alabama, Boise State, Florida, Miami, Ohio State, Oregon State, Texas Christian and Virginia Tech.
