If you've watched Illinois, Michigan State, Ohio State or Purdue basketball recently, you may have noticed their jerseys have a large, yet faint, design on the back.

The Gophers' design features Williams Arena, Minnesota's block "M" logo and "1851," the year the University of Minnesota was founded. Here's what the back of the jersey used to look like.
