Their alternate designs have been awful.

The school says they get more money from adidas, but there's no amount of compensation that can make up for the atrocious alts. Plus the regular jerseys have that awful stretch mark looking crap on them. Their brand is the laughing stock of college football right now. The fan gear sucks too.

The special uniform games have made the Huskers look ridiculous. One of the uniforms you couldn't even read the numbers.

In the eyes of recruits, Adidas is not as "cool" as Nike and UA. Adidas is losing its footing in college football with ND and now possibly UM bailing on them.

Nike is clearly the best option. Former Husker Paul Miles reps for them. No brainer

Just look at the design differences. I know Adidas has recently added some former Nike exec's but until they come up with something exciting they are nothing more than another dying company.

Unless its soccer Adidas is garbage. Kids don't like it its 3rd tier aperal at best. Nebraska deserves better preferably Nike but I'd gladly take underarmor as well

Who even still wears Adidas? Nike and even Under Armour are way ahead of the game. Even Michigan was smart enough to move forward and leave Adidas for Nike.

cheerleaders change their uniforms more often, basketball, baseball, probably bowling. Why not?

Change could result in more future choice on every renewal of contracts. We can be concern that the base uniform will always be there.

They really do not care about this side of the pond. I work with someone from the netherlands and he said as long as they have European soccer they could care less about American Football.

Nike designs are more innovative and just plain look better. I believe Nike resonates more as a brand than Adidas.

Although I do not like the Nike brand as much (maybe because I have been an adidas guy since I could remember) I think their uniform designs seem to be better, colors seems better, and the kids these days wear more Nike than anything.

I really want to see the black cleats return with the black tees under the jersey and black accessories, we look too much like Wisconsin, and we look soft with the red and white...what happened to scarlet and cream??? And stop with the alternate unis.....Oregon has cornered the market on that

Stay tradition. Don not need flashy. Do not need alternate uniforms anyway, get rid of them.

Adidas=more money. Nike does not pony up the cash for dear old Nebraska. The main reason is the potential in selling shoes. Our lack of big urban cities and population hurt shoe sales. Addidas is

Adidas NU unis the previous few years - disappointing. Do not understand trend toward smaller, uglier, wrinkly #s difficult to read on TV. Return to large numbers of yesteryear's 1994-97 unis when we were champs. Best ones ever. Agree - stiff-arm Phil Knight's anything goes for a buck empire.

Recruits 'might' look at uniforms but the N on the helmet means more. The Nike at uniforms are ugly. Just look at some of Oregon's overdone uniforms. I like the Adidas fan wear.

Is it reasonable to consider Nebraska a potential playoff team in 2025?

They are as much a potential playoff team as Arizona State and Indiana were last year. There is no harm is fans dreaming big. A team with a recent history like Nebraska is going to put it together this year. Why not the Huskers?

They have a schedule that gets to the year 3 Matt Rhule 10 wins. If they can hang with Penn St. then they could be in the conversation as a 10-2, 11-1 team.

Anything can happen, but up until now, Rhule hasn't shown that he can get the job done. I hope I'm wrong, but I just can't by the hype. Show me on the field.

So tired of delusional preseason talk. How about a winning conference record and a bowl win.

They haven’t done anything on the field to warrant that expectation. But there is nothing wrong with the team setting it as a goal and striving to reach that goal.

Immanuel Kant would say no, but he had a very strict definition of reason. I can only imagine him pooh-poohing the Huskers because Rhule is compulsed to pass the ball on clear running downs. Afraid to actually hand the ball to the fullback on 3rd and 1. And instead is in the shotgun. NO THEY KANT!

Thry’ll be better this year, but I think 9-3 or 8-4 are likely which keeps them out of contention this year. My hope is that by year 4 under Rhule will finally get them ibto the playoff picture

He was a tackling machine with a less talented defensive line in front of him at Georgia Southern. He will have bigger gaps and less linemen reaching him IMO

Dick Butkus is the best Big Ten linebacker. But Watson-Trent might be the best ever with a hyphen in his name. Jack Ham is the best Big Ten linebacker to have the middle name Raphael. LaVar Arrington is the best to have a capital V inexpliccably inserted into his frist name. The list goes on.
