Thoughts? I'd move USC down to good and Nebraska and jNW to bad. Cause **** em.
Agreed…I’d put Michigan in the “good” category, but no higher.Michigan can’t be elite if other schools also have it. The ny giants have it on their throw back uniforms. Princeton had them before Michigan. Ohio states bucknuts is weak as well.
You make a good point.The single letter helmets are lame. And there’s a lot of them. IU is two letters, but I’ll lump them in with this group. All should be down at the bottom.
You can’t have USC and MSU on different lines unless MSU is using their stupid S logo. I’d rank them on par with Iowa for using a single color logo. Not sure that makes them truly elite, but probably above the “good” line.
UCLA and Maryland are equivalent and probably between the mid and good levels. Definitely a step below the USC/MSU/Iowa helmets because you shouldn’t have to read to see who a team is.
OSU and PSU’s base helmets are equally boring, but at least OSU adds the stickers. Neither belong a I’ve the mid tier.
Iowa’s has been pretty much untouched for 45 years now. USC for a bit longer and Michigan for much longer. Oregon probably doesn’t know what their real helmets look like from changing identities so much over the last several decades. They used to use an O and their winged ones look stupid. So they’re in the bottom group.

It belongs on the elite line for sure. Except for those little stickers. Don’t clutter a great helmet.Hands down the best Big Ten helmet is

When y’all joining? Let’s get those lawsuits settled I want to get to a game in Tally.
Agree. Sadly, the numpty commissioner has a chance to listen to what FSU and Clemson was saying and get creative with Capital Equity infusion investment and paying extra to keep the most valuable programs intact for negotiations but completely dropped the ball.I was really hoping for 2025 but it’s looking like 2026 or 2027 instead.
There’s a lot of misinformation out there especially from BSPiN. But being an attorney and having reviewed the pleadings and attached exhibits it looks like FSU is bound to the ACC only through 2027, so at most we would need to buy out one or hopefully two years worth of contract. That’s because the original contract that we signed allowed ESPN to make an election to extend at 2021 until 2036, but ESPN did not actually extend at that time, instead the ACC Commissioner extended the time for ESPN to 2025 in exchange for a sweetheart deal for his son and his son’s company to get tertiary rights. NONE of that was approved by 2/3s of the ACC vote as required by the agreement FSU signed with the ACC. So ESPN has already missed their chance to reup and force FSU in through 2036 because there was a material change to the contract not approved by either FSU or 2/3s ACC vote but I we made illegally wildly by the ACC Commissioner. That’s why they didn’t want their contracts getting out. Because FSU is free in 2027.
There is only one definition for best helmet(s) in the B1G; black helmet with a gold Tiger Hawk on it or GTFO.
