NU Alternate/Throwback Unis for Illinois

[C N Red]

I love the uniforms, but they should of just went with a real cream color for the helmets without the "straps". Please no jokes.

I like the shirt.  We shouldn't ever field a team without the "N" on the helmet though.

I agree..that is my only complaint.  Must have the N I think.

I know the reason we do it, still don't like the idea.  Almost died laughing at Ohio State's uniforms.  Nebraska is still a blue blood, we don't need gimmicks.  But we need recruits and this is the kind of stuff they all claim they like.  So be it.  I actually get to watch the game tomorrow.  Hope it isn't to distractive.

Ohio State’s black uniforms from last week? I guess I don’t see what would be worth that much laughter. Were their Buckeye pride stickers more phallic than usual? Two entirely different senses of humor, for sure.

I am good with these Alts. The uniform looks really nice and the helmets are ok too.  All I really care about is another win though!

They definitely look weird, but they don’t look bad at all IMO.

 

[ScottyIce]

Then why did you approve them Bill Moos

Yup. I’ve enjoyed plenty of the alternates. To me, the deciding factor is honestly whether I can read the numbers/names lol. #ducttape

 

[Lonestar_Husker]

I just saw some halftime highlights. I think the alternate uniforms look really good. I like them. 

 

[Mierin]

They're better from a distance, but like others have said they should've just done the cream colored helmets with the N on them.

 

[I am I]

I LOVE these uni’s. 

Love the cream pants, love the font, love the black cleats. 

Helmet is okay not great, but very serviceable. 

Love the black shirts underneath the jerseys. 9.9 out of 10 this week

In person they looked great to 4 of us at the game yesterday (section 18).  The numbers were easy to read from a distance and they just had a cool look from the stands.  Better than many from the past imo.

I liked them as well. The numbers were clear to see and I thought they looked great as a throwback. The cream pants might have been a little too yellow/brown, but I understand what they were going for.

Weird! Imgur said there was an error while I was copying the links but I didn't see that until you pointed it out.  Wonder how that image got in there.










Here's Adidas' explanation for why they chose these unis:

Now that I've seen the explanation I thank Adidas for the effort they put into it and take back my Star Wars comments. Put an N on the helmet and I'm fine with them.
