JayMac Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Did Illinois choose the matte navy helmet to wear this year? If so, I'm not thrilled. I'm a fan of the orange helmet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rams80 Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 The alt white helmet reminds me of LSU's white helmet. Is it really necessary when you already have contrasting black and gold helmets?At this point, the helmets-in-every-color trend shows no sign of stopping so you might as well go along with it. Yep, Indiana wore three or four last year. Virginia Tech has several and let's not get started on Oregon.Yeah, and the white lids were stupid and the pink decals were even more stupid.

The orange helmet is still going to be their primary helmet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cranium Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Guess the team name needs to be on the front so no one thinks Mizzou changed their shade of gold. Vanderbilt has only been an SEC member from day one...Speaking of gold, why no gold pants?In the pictures of the unveiling, they show a set with gold pants. My link click on Howell's photos to see the pics of the unveiling.So they have a full range of three jerseys, three pants, and three helmets. I don't see any obvious stripes on the gold pants and they clearly aren't close to matching the gold helmets, as usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

conner62 Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 The only real problem I have with the Vandy set is no stripes on the black helmet. The other 2 helmets have stripes and I think the black would look better with 2 gold stripes with a black in the middle. The white helmet its self is awesome though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WSU151 Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 I like the white and gold helmets...the black helmet, meh. Overall, I might be one of the few who really like it.

PhilliesPhan1325 Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 If the white pants had the matching stripe as the white helmet, the white/gold/white combo would be a top favorite of mine.Edit: Scratch that. I keep forgetting about that hideous shoulder coloring. I still wish the white pants had stripes though. "The 0-2 pitch... SWING AND A MISS! STRUCK HIM OUT!
