          The Star City will be going with Nebraska when it plays in the Second City on Sept. 24.

          Nebraska's game at Northwestern in Chicago will feature the team's Husker Chrome alternate uniform, which will also be known as the Star City uniform. The uniform is inspired by the school's home, the state capital of Lincoln, which is called the Star City because that's how it is represented on maps. The Star City uniform will feature metallic red numbering and metallic chrome outlining on the jersey.

          What's the early verdict on the unis?

          The Huskers' uniform is made by Adidas and features the company's Primeknit yard blend and TechFit technology.
