Best case scenario, blackshirt uniforms are being worn at home against Northwestern on homecoming. That means we took care of business against Ohio St and the hype train is back in Lincoln!

Since we already have a thread on the 3rd uniform and I’m talking about this for next year not this year..

I have a concern that SF mentioned that if in a game the defense played well enough to earn the right for the team to decide or the defense decides to wear them for the next game..

My concern is the game they would wear them and the defense would get boat raced or not play up to the standard of wearing them...

This Initial thinking could back fire and end up with egg on their face so too speak.

Yep, like if we lock Illinois down, then OSU hangs 60 on us.

There is one other option but I doubt it will even be discussed between the schools.

Nebraska could ask permission from Illinois to be allowed to wear black uniforms and Illinois could wear their Orange uniforms. Of course both schools would have to petition the NCAA for permission as well.

It's a possibility allbeit a long shot.

Even if they don't get a waiver from the NCAA and unless the rules have changed in the last decade or so, I believe the penalty for the offending team is the loss of a timeout.

Worth it?

Ohio state is under the lights. Let's put the boots to Illinois and then talk about are alternates.

Technically you're only an offending team if the away team jersey doesn't contrast well (byu-blue utah-red) or if the opposite team doesn't wear white.

I think they are are going to unveil them against Bucknuts as Frost has said it would be worn this year at least once and it makes sense as it's not only who were playing but also unveiling of the plans for the new facilities in front of a national audience and ALOT of highly ranked recruits. I will be there in but not where my season tickets are, but in my aunt and uncle's Suite that they've owned since day one and had already paid for it when they were being built.That's where I am most games.
