ClemBert Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 I don't know why all the belly aching coming from the Nebraska fans about purple uniforms. Wouldn't y'all prefer a change from this? j/k ;-) Quote Link to comment
OrangeCrush Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 I hate the purple. I know it was part of the unis long ago, but we got away from it until Hatfield brought it back against N.C. State in 91 I think. Purple should be reserved for Kool-Aid, singing dinosaurs and eggplants. I like all orange. I also, like Penthouse Tiger, prefer the bigger paw on the helmet. Seems like a bitter divide within the Tiger Nation regarding the purple. I think Tommy B got a bit carried away with it, but I definitely don't mind it now and then (maybe like once a year in Football and 2 or 3 times in Basketball). What I REALLY hate is when people wear navy blue instead of purple. Like when I see orange shirts with navy blue trim instead of purple. Navy Blue is not, has never been, and will never be part of the official school colors. Real men aren't scared to wear purple; ask Ray Lewis. Quote Link to comment

A more disgusting combo I don't think I have seen, that is until I saw the all Purple unis by Clemson! Quote Link to comment

A more disgusting combo I don't think I have seen, that is until I saw the all Purple unis by Clemson! Yeah, the Raven's unis are pretty bad - especially the Arena Football looking all black ones. Sure I'm biased n'all but I really think that orange paw on the purple jerseys looks sharp. Plus it's a cool shade of purple, like a really dark/royal looking purple. It's not like its a lavender uniform or anything; remember folks, purple is a sign of royalty. Anyway, Since this is basically a uni thread, here are my favorite combos: 1. Orange Jerseys / White Pants 2. Orange Jerseys / Orange Pants 3. Purple Jerseys / White Pants 4. White Jerseys / White Pants 5. Purple Jerseys / Orange Pants 6. White Jerseys / Orange Pants 7. Purple Jerseys / Purple Pants 8. White Jerseys / Purple Pants Quote Link to comment

zE bOp Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 Y'all should hope we don't wear this uniform (we're undefeated in this combo - not worn since 2006) I like the all purple or all orange, or combos of those 2 colors with white, but this purple/orange thing looks like poo poo.

killer cacti Posted December 11, 2008 Share Posted December 11, 2008 In any football uni, IMO you can't go wrong with a color & white, whether it be colored jersey and white pants, or white jersey with colored pants. Quote Link to comment

huskerdude171 Posted December 11, 2008 Author Share Posted December 11, 2008 Purple is a color that no teams should use for their uniform. At least its not their main color like it is at KSU, Northwestern, or TCU. Clemson needs to just stick to their traditional orange and white because I think those jerseys look pretty good.

Keep hanging around HuskerBoard, and you'll see - oh, I don't know - about 35 topics a year urging the team to wear black jerseys. Yes, you read that correctly - black. For a team whose colors are red and white. In fact, I'm surprised that hasn't come up in this thread yet... Quote Link to comment

It would be kinda cool if they let the defense wear black jerseys for the games, just cause they're the blackshirts. Quote Link to comment

I mean, we have the 'blackshirts' and alot of the Husker gear anymore has black in it... Black is sort of a generic 'we bad ass' type of jersey/color anyway, that alot of teams have in their mix.
