ASU football’s traditional homecoming uniforms feature Sparky

This Saturday, Arizona State will play its homecoming game in traditional fashion.

The Sun Devils will don their maroon and gold Sparky uniforms against the Washington State Cougars.

ASU’s old-school helmets will feature the classic Sparky mascot — it’s the first time the mascot has made an appearance on the uniforms this year. The last time Sparky appeared was during the Sun Devils’ “Salute to Service” game against Oregon in 2015 that honored Pat Tillman. Although the uniforms are similar, the Sun Devils will not be wearing camouflage sleeves against Washington State.

ASU heads into its homecoming with a 5-2 (2-2 Pac-12) record against a 4-2 (3-0) Cougars team. The Sun Devils will be looking to bounce back from their 40-16 loss to Colorado last weekend.

The visiting Cougars will be ready for battle in their crimson-white-crimson uniforms.
