Actually, I kind of like the Lil Red look, and I am one of the HO uniform nazis. But it would depend on the game. If NU kicked a$$ in the game it would be demoralizing for the other team. But is NU got boatraced, the unis would come off as silly as hell.
I'm a NU uniform Nazi too. But, I can enjoy a alternate once a year too!

Tbh, the idea and design might have worked well in our own colors. A white jersey and big scarlet N, with a black number. Color layout from our alternate on the away except we'd need scarlet pants

Scarlet, I am deeply disappointed..lol

Lol... yea Just think when Bill Jennings left Nebraska in 1961 and changed the helmets from red ones with a strip to white helmets with no strip before he was fired..

Who knows if that wouldn’t have happened we may have looked similar to Alabama throughout our history.

These IMO were bad *** alternates and as far as red chrome should go. Too much and it's just too tacky.

I was going to post this. With red pants these are very clean. Love the chrome facemask on the classic helmets.

I'd love to see those huge pads come back for a uniform change....just for entertainment value.

Like the 60's font. Screw the rest of the changes, wear classy uniforms and they don't look like a bunch of dorks if they lose.

Thanks for your opinion it sure is valued over here....:rolleyes:
Shouldnt yoube celebrating your bowl win on your forum?
The obsession hawks have with NU is intriguing
Then don't have a blow up doll for a mascot. Not obsessed, got banned on own site for political forum, have no place to go.

Herky follow along.
This thread is about alternate helmets not little red...o_O
I love your regular helmets a lot (like I love ours) and it's going to take a lot to improve them....makes an alternate helmet quite the challenge. I'm totally into uni's and can't think of a way to improve your helmet...nothing I've seen so far from the alt versions is good enough.

It's time to fix that already. Good Grief!
As for the uniforms, we need something super bad ace. I love the regular and I love the throw backs. I wanted to post a picture of an updated pic of an old gold uni. I have some other ideas to, but... Black Jerseys Thin Red And White Lines, White Pants Black and Red lines Or Logo, White Or Chrome Helmets with Chrome Mask and Black and Red (thin white lines) N Huskers Logo. Shoes Can Be Black with thin red and white lines or logos.
I have pictures of examples, but...
"best song in the world"
"tribute"

Huskers won't do it...but some school will eventually do a twitter thing where you can submit your helmet idea...they will narrow it down to 4 options and let the fans vote. It will be freaking cool
