Nebraska Football Wearing All Whites at No. 16 Indiana


Depending on how old you are, you’re either really excited or frightened by Nebraska’s uniform choice in Bloomington.

The Huskers are wearing the all whites—white tops, white pants, and white shoes—at No. 16 Indiana.

Younger generations have shown a tendency to approve of solid colors across uniforms, like the all reds for recruits. That extends to Nebraska’s look in Bloomington.

Older generations, however, have dubbed the look “surrender whites”. Some of that sentiment comes from the 1992 game at Iowa State where No. 7 Nebraska was upset 19-10.

The Huskers are 7-14 since 1970 when wearing all-white uniforms. The last time NU wore the white uniform combo was against Buffalo in 2021, though that was an alternate uniform, and the last time they wore the all whites was in the 2016 Music City Bowl.

Only two coaches in Nebraska history has a winning record in the all whites. They are Bo Pelini (2-1) and Scott Frost (1-0). Tom Osborne (1-3), Bill Callahan (0-1), Barney Cotton (0-1), and Mike Riley (2-3) all had losing records in the non-red uniform combination.

Nebraska and Indiana are set for an 11 a.m. CDT kickoff. The game is televised on FOX. The Huskers Radio Network is providing radio coverage across the state.
