It would be an authentic throwback.  That's the way every Michigan - Ohio State game was until the mid 50s, when they changed to away-whites for the contrast needed for black and white TV.

The newspaper writeup of the Michigan Stadium dedication game in 1927 talks about the blue Michigan jerseys and the scarlet Ohio State jerseys. 

The Snow Bowl in 1950 clearly shows the game was played color vs color. 

We have color TV now.  It's time to bring back the authentic look.

Was hoping for All Blues.

I'm not a fan of playing around with the jerseys or a jersey protest, but I think playing this game without names on the backs would be a nice statement.  A statement of what?!?  I don't fucking know!  That we're all pissed and united and Back Home and none of the Chickenshit Buckeye-Led moves on Us while were In Planes and On The Road!?!?!  Something!  Just a statement, and strip off the B1G logo everywhere, also.

Why is everyone assuming the actual jerseys say "The Game" on the back? Has that been said  anywhere?

It feels like thats just for the social  media post  and  that that fact should be pretty obvious.
