But, this is all the rage, and over at Lost Letterman, they recently previewed several new helmet designs by a gentleman named Charles Sollars. He is not only working on NCAA helmets, but the NFL as well. BroBible has more.
Some teams have great helmets, and among them are my Florida State Seminoles and Miami Dolphins. But some teams could use a makeover, and some of these designs are very cool.
Whoa Nelly, did I like the designs for Arkansas, Kansas, Illinois and the Tampa bay Buccaneers.
Others I liked were Iowa State, Indiana, LSU and Miami.
A few seasons ago, NIKE changed the Florida State uniforms for a game with Maryland. They uniforms were not bad, but did not come close to our normal uniforms, complete with our award winning helmet, named the best in college football. Pictured below is the helmet used in the aforementioned game, and a Sollars concept. These are not bad, but I say no thanks. Fear the Spear!
Nebraska has uniforms that are conservative and traditional, just the way I like it. Below are two designs of alternate helmets, both of which I am against.
Sollars has many designs available for preview on You Tube, and he offers a full compliment of Nebraska options below. Go there and search for your favorite team after you preview the 'Huskers.
There were several designs I did not care for, and again sticking with tradition, the new designs for the Red River Rivalry I thought were disappointing.
All in all, this is great fun as we finish up spring and get ready for the color and pageantry of fall, which will be here before you know it!
