The University of Wisconsin will be unveiling an alternate uniform design that the Badgers football team will be wearing for its Sept. 29 game at Nebraska, an athletic department official confirmed Tuesday evening. Last week the World-Herald reported on Nebraska?s apparently much-anticipated unveiling of the Cornhuskers? alternate uniform for the late-September showdown that will be the Big Ten Conference opener for both teams….This whole situation could be viewed as a little awkward for both the university and Adidas, as a long-simmering dispute between UW-Madison and the apparel giant ended up in Dane County Circuit Court on July 13 due to allegations of sweatshop abuses at a factory Adidas subcontracted with in Indonesia.
