Northwestern adds an Irish twist to Dublin uniforms

The Wildcats are less than two days out from their season opener in Dublin, Ireland, which means it’s officially time for the first uniform reveal of the season! Northwestern unveiled three uniform sets this offseason, moving the chest stripe up to the shoulders and revamping to a more traditional look — Saturday will be the first time the Wildcats rep the new jerseys in-game. The team took to Twitter to show off the threads for its matchup against Nebraska.

That’s right, the Grapes are back! With the addition of the new purple helmet, Northwestern returns its purple-on-purple-on-purple combo for the first time since 2006.
