We had a plain, traditional uniform for our first 5 years with Adidas when we were in the Big 12. 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.

I know a lot of Aggie fans now pine for the RC Slocum-era unis...but these were really good. The white facemask was always the best option (over maroon or gray).

 

And that rivalry should have never fizzled out.

Maybe it’s for the best that it did.

The rivalry could still happen without the bonfire, or with a smarter process for the bonfire.

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.

It's still sadly the most iconic description for the dumpster fire known as the Big XII.

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.

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.

Nebraska fans put this in the back of their minds, like people who swear Sinbad was in a genie movie called Shazam.

[Down Under Husker 53]

Yep.

 

I actually forget these exist until somebody posts photographic evidence, at which point I look away and go back to denial mode.

If they just kept their arms tucked in like #30 there, it's not so bad!

Didn't Tennessee also wear a version of this uniform around the same time?

Only on the road.

We didn't get the annoying white piping on the jersey, but adidas inflicted a horrible thick strip on the home pants as well:

Imagine the handful of kids that grew up wanting to wear that iconic nebraska uniform, but ended up wearing these during their college career. What a dark time for uniforms.

Sadly, compared to the trash that Adidas churns out now, those were practically the glory days.

They only lasted one year.

Adidas did thick stripes and/or side panels with everybody in about 2002.
