Nebraska football fans always have strong reactions to change and Saturday night proved to be no different. The Huskers unveiled new uniforms for the 2026 season during Saturday night's Battle of the Boneyard 7-on-7 tournament.The new uniform is inspired by what the school describes as 'classic Husker football design elements.' The jersey has two stripes across the shoulders, with player numbers featured on the sleeves.The jersey number font draws inspiration from the numbers engraved on an anvil. The numbers also feature interior lines inspired by crop rows, reflecting the state's agricultural heritage. The new uniforms were designed by Nebraska's apparel partner, Adidas. Deputy AD/Chief Operating Officer of Husker Athletics, Haven Fields, talked about the importance that a uniform change can have on a brand as iconic as Nebraska.Recruiting is undeniably the lifeblood of competitive success, and young kids want to wear something sleek, modern, fast, and fashionable. These updates will give a cutting edge to the iconic Nebraska brand. We are proud of the final product and excited for the 2026 season.The helmet will not change, and the helmet N will remain on the front of the pants. Nebraska has used alternate uniforms before but has not changed the home and away looks since 2002, a change that lasted only one season.

Dont care about the uniforms just go win 9+ games https://t.co/ybeLcbgrnB Rhuler of Husker Nation (@RHULEROFNEB) June 21, 2026Not a fanI love Nebraskas clean scarlet-and-white scheme, and I love the traditionalist nature of their uniforms. They have one of the best and most time-honored looks in CFB.It brings me no joy to say that I really hate this update to their uniform package. https://t.co/gsA8U3TsaY Parker Thune (@ParkerThune) June 21, 2026ConcerningOh. Oh no. Nebraska. These would be a decent alternate but as the core home and road unis I just cant get with it for the huskers. The texture in the numbers is neat, the shoulder stripes make no sense. The font is not great, the pant stripe is dated. Man this is https://t.co/bkUr5ueja2 Chad Fields (Vols Uniform Boy) (@CfieldsVFL) June 21, 2026Unpopular opinionSeemingly an unpopular opinion, but I like the new Nebraska football uniforms. Clean look. https://t.co/QpCgSDflDS Kyler Cox (@DugoutCox) June 21, 2026Practice uniformsThese legitimately look like practice uniforms lol https://t.co/KWveIgUowP Rick Saratoga (@toga_party_) June 21, 2026Posible interpretation The uniforms appear to be inspired (ish) by the 1968 / 1969 look... which may be why the "NU" helmet was teased in the video.But if I had to guess, we do not see the "NU" helmet in 2026.<--1969 (the 100th anniversary of CFB)-->1968 pic.twitter.com/PJ0QJMlWNM Dave Feit (@FeitCanWrite) June 21, 2026Now Adidas takes shotsAdidas finally got around to ruining Nebraska's uniforms https://t.co/ixJ6hR2lCT Greg Reinhart (@GregReinhart) June 21, 2026On sale nowNew #Nebraska uniforms now on sale pic.twitter.com/N67m0UsrJh Justin Frommer (@JustinbFrommer) June 21, 20266.8/10Uniform rating 6.8/10Numbers: 4.8Stripe placement: 8.7Sleeves: 7.9Patches/Emblems: 5.8Pants: 6.6The stripe placement and sleeves are the strengths. I miss the Tradition patch A LOT since that was the unique touch. Numbers are like Virginia Tech :') As long as players like Connor Hayden (@corncrazed_) June 21, 2026That's true I like these. They're different for sure. Too many people complaining because some Nebraska fans are never gonna be happy. https://t.co/Lr7vedU3HS Brian Moore GBR (@KCHusker24) June 21, 2026Where's the patch?Quick thoughts (much more to come at HuskerMax)>Why try to fix what wasn't broken?>Pick a stripe size and go with it.>Does the "winning tradition" patch have to be re-earned?>I can get on board with the number font. https://t.co/nktnlGLcJN Dave Feit (@FeitCanWrite) June 21, 2026Two thumbs upTwo thumbs up https://t.co/yGRZKdIBZX Austin Jacobsen (@Austin2Jacobsen) June 21, 2026Contact/Follow us @CornhuskersWire on X (formerly Twitter) and like our page on Facebook to follow ongoing coverage of Nebraska news, notes and opinions.This article originally appeared on Cornhuskers Wire: Social media reacts to Nebraska's new football uniforms for 2026
