The first round of the Eleven Warriors' Ohio State Alternate Uniform Bracket went off without a hitch, but — just like this year's NCAA Tournament — saw a major upset in the second round. 

More than 4,000 votes were cast in the Final Four, setting up a matchup between the Buckeyes' most traditional alternate and the biggest deviation thus far. 

FINAL FOUR RESULTS

Final Four

There was a bit of early hope for Ohio State's first Pro Combat look — the socks push it over the top, in my opinion — but it seems impossible for the voters to disassociate the uniforms from the game in which they were worn. That thought process is what ultimately gave the national championship uniform the 70 percent to 30 percent edge.

Final Four

The "Cocaine Whites" entered the tournament as an overwhelming favorite, but — just like top-seeded Villanova — came up a bit short when it matter most. Much like the previous matchup, voters couldn't seem to separate the atmosphere of a blacked-out Ohio Stadium from the uniforms themselves, giving the Dark Night set the 58 to 42 edge.

ONE SHINING MOMENT

So it's all come down to this. Dark Night in the Shoe versus the 2015 national championship uniform. Which Ohio State alternate is the best?
