BleedHuskerRed Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 Forgive me if this has been mentioned, but what color were the helmets last Saturday? They looked cream as opposed to white. They seem to match the cream shoulder stripes that appeared a few weeks ago, as opposed to the numbering that is still white. Comparing pics from last saturday and previous games, there seems to be a difference, but it could be lighting, angles, and the like. Did I miss the boat? Was there some announcement that they were trading the white for cream...gradually? Are they doing it covertly? If so why? Was there a second shooter on the grassy knoll? What's saskwatch's take on all this? Quote Link to comment
mitch7 Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 I have only heard of the shoulder stripes being different for this years uniforms on this board. Quote Link to comment
Husker4lif3 Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 Shoulder stripes look alot like a cat pissed on all the uniforms before the game. Maybe that was strategy? Quote Link to comment
knapplc Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 Hard to say. Here's a pic from the game. Looks like it could be closer to the shoulder stripe color than the pants color... Quote Link to comment
zoogs Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 Not a fan of the almost yellow stripes. What's the deal with them? Helmets looked white to me. Quote Link to comment
knapplc Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 Well, our colors are actually Scarlet and Cream. We've been wearing white for years, so maybe they're trying to go back to our roots? Dunno. : Quote Link to comment
808Husker in KCMO Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 "Creaming" is a word I dont think I want to read again. It looks creepy. Quote Link to comment
np_husker Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 The yellow stripes are really bugging me. I would rather have no stripes than what we currently have. It looks terrible on TV! Surely someone in the department has noticed this??? Quote Link to comment

UGAHusker Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 Or like the first word in a porn movie title. Quote Link to comment
Yellowjacketfan Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 Those helmets are 100% white. Quote Link to comment
BIGREDIOWAN Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 I have a replica helmet that I bought a few years ago and it is a cream color as well, but like someone mentioned before our colors are scarlet and cream so this would be correct. Quote Link to comment
Bo-Nose Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 Hard to say. Here's a pic from the game. Looks like it could be closer to the shoulder stripe color than the pants color... The Nebraska helmets look like cream-colored plastic when you compare them to the Sooner facemasks. Quote Link to comment
knapplc Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 The Nebraska helmets look like cream-colored plastic when you compare them to the Sooner facemasks. Well, as many times as our helmets were smashed up against their facemasks, you'd think it would be easy to find a comparison shot. I'm on the case.... Quote Link to comment
knapplc Posted November 10, 2009 Share Posted November 10, 2009 I would say this rumor has legs. They definitely look more cream-colored to me. Quote Link to comment
