Nebraska Alternative (aka Sacrilegious) Uniform Slamma Ramma Extravaganza 2012

horrible cop out.... they shat on our uniform timeline and tradition. and we're supposed to throw that all out the window because its cool with young kids? FOH
What is this uniform timeline business? You do know we wore throwbacks a couple years ago, and before that we had those terrible abominations from the early 2000's. It's not unheard of for major programs with rich tradition to change things up every now and then.

 
and i question how cool "the young kids" and the rest of you actually think these are.... i honestly think everyones got chubbs because they are new and a change. we'll see how you like them years down the road.
guy, it is one game.
so what? they still mess up our whole entire timeline. i would compare it to not selling out a single game.... its just one game.
maybe, but what about a multiverse theory?

are you saying we are ruining a streak of wearing the same uniform and we will rue that day in history for the rest of time?
its not even a streak of "the same uniform". all the other uniforms we've ever worn look like nebraska football.... these new uni's just arent nebraska football. almost entirely due to the black secondary color. if you're gonna incorporate black, make it the main color. i could respect that. these new ones however, could get lost in the identity of other teams pretty easy. there is such a fine line with the uniforms and i feel it has been crossed.

is it one game? yes. but its a time where we should take advantage of bringing something new and refreshing to the table, something we would be comfortable wearing for a hundred years if we weren't already all in for our traditional look. gives me that "ehhhhhh, what are you doing?" feeling. messing around with the identity of husker football has proven to not work. i feel that throwing black in as an accent color is really poking around with the identity. i cant help the way i feel. take the black out and you have a winner. add black as the main color and you have a winner.

i approve every throwback we've ever worn except for these. i even enjoyed the all whites and all reds that we've worn in the past. despite the losses that came with them. im not the "dont mess with the uniforms" guy that i may appear to be.

Comfortable wearing for a hundred years? Haven't you seen the uniform timeline picture that has been floating around in this thread? The uniforms we had 80 years are so radically different from today's that you wouldn't even be able to tell they are from the same team. Hell, the uniforms have undergone tons of changes in the past 20 years alone. Face it, your argument holds no merit.

 
i would be comfortable wearing a variation of every one of our uniforms for a hundred years. just keep it current with the style of jersey. they're all nebraska football. i wouldnt be comfortable wearing the new alternate for a hundred years.

all of these look like husker football to me. even the early ones... because thats what it was back then.

by that logic, the Husker fans of the future will be clamoring for these new ones, because that's what they did in 2012.
right thats why it sucks so bad.... because these dont fit with husker football. all of the other ones do. even the one with denim and striped sleeves.... because husker (bugeater?) football was so young. and the time of when they wore them should add a huge amount of context to them.
