Via Oregon Live:

The "Battleship gray base" helmet features a gray Beaver logo with orange eyes over a gray helmet with a black facemask. The look is meant to commemorate the school's 1942 Rose Bowl team, which beat Duke 20-16 in the game. The helmet will have the year "1942" on the front and "MEN OF ROSES" on the back.
