    Week 4 of college football brings more excitement and deep meanings.

    After losing to the Missouri Tigers in Week 3 to drop them out of the AP Top 25 rankings, the Boston College Eagles look for revenge on Saturday when they take on the Michigan State Spartans.

    Against Michigan State, the Eagles will wear their “Red Bandanna” threads in honor of Boston College alumnus Welles Crowther, who died during 9/11. The uniform features a red paisley pattern that will fill the numbers, lettering, stripe and school logo on the jersey.

    Crowther saved 18 lives during the attacks and was remembered as “the man in the red bandana”. He used the bandana to breathe through the smoke.

    Here are some of the best uniform combinations for Week 4 of American football on Saturday.

    Historical threads

    The South Carolina Gamecocks look back on history with a throwback alternate jersey against the Akron Zips. The throwback threads honor the team’s 1980 season, when then-running back George Rogers won the Heisman Trophy.

    The BYU Cougars celebrate their 100th anniversary as a football program with throwback jerseys against the Kansas State Wildcats at LaVell Edwards Stadium. BYU played its first intercollegiate game in 1922, but sat out two seasons (1943 and 1945) due to World War II.

    BYU will begin Big 12 Conference play in a white uniform inspired by the attire the Cougars wore during their 1996 Cotton Bowl season.

    Unique combinations

    The Louisiana Tech Bulldogs will pay tribute to those who have served our country in the military by wearing an all-red uniform against the Tulsa Golden Hurricane. The uniform includes a red helmet that replaces the traditional Louisiana Tech stars and stripes padding.

    The Liberty Flames, who started 3-0, will wear ice blue uniforms with white pants in their game against the East Carolina Pirates.

    Liberty made its uniform debut during the 30-24 win over the New Mexico State Aggies in Week 2, when running back Quinton Cooley threw for 111 yards and two touchdowns on 12 carries.

    The LSU Tigers (2-1) will wear their stylish purple jerseys and yellow pants as they host the UCLA Bruins. The Tigers will face the Bruins for the first time since the 2021 season, when UCLA claimed a 38-27 victory in the first matchup between the two schools.
