Yeah, but I think Nebraska perfected their look in the late 90's.
NU went to no stripes in 1995, and wore those until 2003 (except for the one "gusset" stripe season of 2002). Callahan put the stripes back on the pants in 2004, because that's how he remembered NU looking. I grew up with stripes on the pants, but I liked the look of the no-stripes better.Historically they've sometimes had stripes and sometimes not had stripes. Sometimes even in the same year.

It bothers me that the jerseys are 1 and 3. Standing next to each other like that, it should have been 1 and 8.
Otherwise, I like the look. It's tidy.
Plus it moves us further away from Wisconsin and creates NU's own identity.

I really don't give a rip and find the entire debate over stripes, tire tread, position of Adidas logo, color of shoes....etc....equal to my daughters when they were teenagers getting ready for mid winter formal and debating on what necklace goes with their dresses.Let's look at it from this angle: what's the percent of seasons with stripes and conference/national titles vs. percentage of seasons without stripes and conference/national titles?
Third post in a row: I like these. Clean look, and the "Adidas" logo on the chest doesn't look nearly as bad as it does on the replica jerseys.
Plus, #TeamNoStripes
EDIT: Wait, are the helmets a matte white now?
And I am gooooood :B)Vince R. said:Just remove the stripes off the pants and I am good.
