They would change up the pants stripe from the triple stripe to a random zig pattern in 2010 I dont think Nebraska has changed their primary look. Granted just moving a single white sleeve is considered major with how traditional Nebraska's uniform is. Yeah, the change to the current set was all Sumlin, but I forgot that A&M had adidas before then. That's what happens when teams decide that keeping a solid look regardless of who makes the uniform trumps grabbing everyone's attention. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The white facemask was always the best option (over maroon or gray). And that rivalry should have never fizzled out. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A student run (but not university sanctioned) bonfire still continues off campus. Much more stringent safety practices are used as well as every log must now touch the ground rather than stacking logs on top of each other vertically. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's still sadly the most iconic description for the dumpster fire known as the Big XII. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's annoying that they can play each other in every other sport but this and claim it's a "quality of schedule" issue. If the Big XII went to 12 teams and an 8 game schedule to match the SEC, they'd still have another issue pop up. Texas' last game of the year shouldn't be at Kansas. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If Texas hadn't tried to bluff their way through a forced rights media deal, they wouldn't have lost the top half of the conference to the B1G, SEC and PAC, either. But potato, poe-tah-to. Good thing they still have Oklahoma. That's about the only Big XII football worth watching anymore, save for an occasional TCU or KState game. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
