Just wait until it becomes "big mascot". The Jayhawk on the front of the football jersey will look (sarcasm) great.

Disclaimer: If this comment is about an NBA uniform from 2017-2018 or later, do not constitute a lack of acknowledgement of the corporate logo to mean anything other than "the corporate logo is terrible and makes the uniform significantly worse."

The CFL and World League were ahead of their time

The uniforms actually look pretty good, but they don't work at all for a team like Nebraska. I'd give it a 6.5/10 if it were for a different school, but because it runs completely counter to anything related to Cornhuskers football, I'm giving it a 3.5/10.

Here's hoping Wisconsin destroys the Huskers so we never see these abominations again.

I could understand if they'd simply trotted out a black jersey due to the Blackshirts tradition, but this is just terrible.

It would need significant improvement to achieve terrible. That thing is...I can't come up with anything to convey how awful it is.

Actually, I thought it wasn't a bad idea. It still isn't. If a team wants to do it, I say, do it!

A few of my friends on Facebook (as adidas/nike probably expects most teenagers to) actually like these because ZOMG ITS BLACK, SO BADASS!!!1 Bleh. I hate it. The design itself isn't bad at all, I could stand using the N on the front for one game, but the black just makes this so awful. This trend needs to stop.

Of course all the traditionalists are whining. Everyone should only wear uniforms from the 60s, all the time. I think these are sharp. Red and black are always a sexy combo.

Nebraska is a traditional power dating back that long with a reasonably conservative identity history and an incredibly conservative on field identity. So yeah, they shouldn't be swinging to bad ultra-modern or neo-hockey on general principle.

Anyway, the other issue with this uniform is that it completely missed the :censored: ing point about why people were even entertaining the idea of adding black to a Nebraska alt. Namely, it should come in the form of blackshirts, because, DUH. And Adidas even :censored: ed that up. It's like airballing a layup. To conclude, these look bad and Adidas should feel bad.

EDIT-as pointed out on a Huskers board, they also 86'd the "Winning Tradition" patch on this :censored: pile. Hopefully that call was made out of shame.
