Favorite college football helmets


Bearcats

Recommended Posts

(Note: these are your favorite helmets, not uniforms.)

You don't have to only post a helmet because you go to that school, unless it actually is your favorite.

My top 15:

1. Notre Dame

14. SD State

15. Hawaii

I know I'm probably going to take some slack for some of these, but bring it on. I can handle it.

I couldn't find a picture with Syracuse's gray facemask and numbers on the helmet (the ones they've been using since 2005). I also couldn't find Hawaii's silver helmet.

i dont really have an order but some i think are pretty awsome:

notre dame, ohio st., michigan, tenneesse, usc.

For some reason I'm also a fan of Hawaii and SDST. I know the gradient is kinda stupid, but its one school out of so many, and I think its kinda cool, unique and original. Would they probably look better with just red, or just black, yes. And Hawaii I love the use of the little tribal pattern, along with how it looks almost black while being green. Not a fan of Haw.'s silver helmet though.

The World Basketball Championship, the Davis Cup, Ryder Cup, Iraq: Every day there's further proof that we, as a nation, are not very good at international competition.

My favorite is the Clemson Tigers but I must admit,I'm very bias. :-) If I had to pick a helmet for a team I don't pull for,it would have to be Arizona State. When I was in high school (North Charleston Blue Devils),we had the same helmet except for a different color scheme. (blue & gold)

Cool thread. Couple of my notes:

Michigan is ugly. Call me a homer, but its not cool, its not fresh, its just ugly.

Your 'Cuse lid looks more like a Cleveland Browns lid. Didnt Syracuse change the striping pattern and add numbers on the sides when they brought in the grey facemasks?? Plus, the Cuse never had brown stripes. The one pictured is clearly a Browns helmet.

Love UCLA, love Hawaii, love almost everyone you posted but Michigan.

ps. Ohio State's is freakin' beautiful! :D

On the Riddell site, the Syracuse helmet listed is the one that was posted earlier. It does look like a Browns helmet, but I think Riddell screwed up the striping for the replicas and pocket pros for Syracuse. It's not B&B's fault that Riddell has that picture.

Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half.

No fault of BB. This thread and his posts in it are very cool, as I said earlier.

But Cuse helmets dont even look like this anymore. They have a single blue stripe and a number on the side. Riddel or whoever does need to update thier data.

Yeah this is the one I was talking about. No offense taken.
