Jersey color

[Ratt Mhule]

So I was playing NCAA '11 last night against Rutgers at home and they wore red away jerseys and I wore white home jerseys. It kind of got me wondering, does anyone know of a time we had to wear white home jerseys or red away jerseys to accomodate the other teams colors? None come to my mind. I know it is kind of a stupid question but the game just got me thinking a little bit.

They've got the all white ones which I have never seen.

When we get into the big 10 in 2011 we will be playing wisconsin every year most likely. Pretty similar jersey, both in color and style.

I remember playing red jerseys at away games before, but I'm not recalling when off the top of my head. It happens, but it's not common. n.e.husker is right about Wiscy - we'll have to figure something out with those guys.

I'm pretty sure since the 1970's we have never used our red jerseys in a

true road game. And the whole Wisconsin thing won't be that bad unless

your color blind and can't tell red from white.

Are you sure that you are not thinking of "road" games at neutral sites?

 

UW/NU do have similar unis, but I don't think that it will be a problem. One will have red jerseys, one will have white.

Maybe? I just have a recollection of thinking that it was odd seeing our home uniforms at someone else's field, and that it was because they wanted to wear a unique jersey, like Colorado wearing all black or something like that. It's not a solid memory, so I could be wrong.

Just as long as they don't have the yellow-tinged shoulder stripes..

The only scenario i can think of is if we played at LSU or some other school that uses white as home jersey.

In 1976, preseason #1 Nebraska opened on the road in Baton Rouge vs LSU.

Nebraska wore their home red jerseys. LSU wore their white w/ gold pants.

LSU tied Nebraska 6-6.

 

In the 1977 Liberty Bowl, both Nebraska & North Carolina wore their home jerseys.

Nebraska beat the powder blue clad Tar Heels 21-17.

 

Another "all color game" in 1978, Hawaii visited Memorial Stadium and wore ther home green jerseys.

Nebraska won 56-10.

Wow, thanks for the info man! Did you research that or remember it off the top of your head?
