Boston College's 'Red Bandana' look leads Week 11 college football uniforms - ESPN

It's been a rough season for Boston College, which is currently on an eight-game losing streak.

The Eagles do, however, have one last ace up their sleeve to find a spark heading into the final weeks of their campaign: one of the best alternate uniforms in college football.

Every season, for one game, Boston College wears its Red Bandana Uniform, an aesthetically incredible set of threads with the backstory to match. The uniforms honor Boston College alum Welles Crowther, who is credited with saving several lives in the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks while wearing a red bandana.

The Eagles' tribute uniforms incorporate a number of red bandana elements throughout — the bandana pattern appears on the jersey's sleeves and center logo, along with the front and back of the helmets. «FOR WELLES» is written on the jersey's back nameplate in lieu of traditional player surnames, with an American flag emblem stitched between the nameplate and the collars.

Boston College isn't the only squad that will suit up this weekend in style. Here are the best college football uniforms in Week 11.

UCF is also going with an annual alternate look this week, rolling out its 2025 «Space Game» uniforms.

This year will be «Mission IX» of the Golden Knights' Space Game, referencing this year's edition of the game in the events chronology. The threads and game pay homage to the school's tradition in outer space research, both past and present. UCF's faculty and students have worked on over 700 NASA projects since the university's founding in 1963, according to the school.

The uniforms themselves match the special occasion. Features
