The jersey features two stripes across the shoulders, with player numbers relocated to the sleeves as a nod to traditional football uniforms that celebrate the legacy of Nebraska’s football program. Embracing Nebraska’s agricultural heritage, the jersey number font draws inspiration from the numbers engraved on a steel anvil, and incorporates interior lines inspired by the crop rows that stretch across the state’s landscape, connecting the game-day uniform to the land that defines Nebraska.

“Our partners with adidas approached us about two years ago with updated uniform concepts to provide a modernized look. We appreciate that adidas recognized the natural connection between Nebraska football and agriculture and used that as inspiration for a design that is fitting of the hard work, grit and dedication of our state,” said Brandon Meier, Nebraska Senior Associate AD/Marketing and Multimedia.
“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,” Haven Fields, Deputy AD/Chief Operating Officer of Husker Athletics said.
The iconic Nebraska helmet will not change, and the helmet stick N will also remain on the front of the pants. Adidas has been the primary apparel partner of Nebraska Athletics since 1995.
