Same basic concept, but dark outline instead of sliver...looks better, I think:

we definitely need to go white facemask. Unfortunately the logo appears here to stay so let's do everything else to recreate the look we all like.

Much much better. If we can't get the stacked MSU back, that is the one I want to see on the field.

And for those of you who bitched about the lighter shade of maroon we wore under Crxxm, this helmet (and the one from yesterday) is a good bit darker. I like it.

Off Subject a bit, but our Bully mascot to me looks better than UGA or any of the other Bulldog mascots that I've seen.

Really my biggest problem with the first one we saw was the outline was too light and the banner wasn't outlined completely.

I think Coach Mullen should borrow an idea from Jackie and have students vote on several different uniform designs. I remember when Jackie became coach and put the uniform issue to the student body. It was a brilliant move that gave the kids a chance to have a say in the football program and helped promote student pride and participation at games.

Personally I don't see why we ever abandoned the interlocking - or stacked - MSU logo. It was definitive in college football as we were the only school that used it.

I have heard (please correct me if I'm wrong) that Templeton sold the rights to the interlocking MSU logo to Nike. Why he did that is beyond me but don't put it past LT to do something like that to make a quick buck. If it's true, it angers me greatly.

And hell, even the logo is starting to grow on me.

As much as I hate the whole "M State" thing, this version is so much less flappy and intricate than the one on the Croomiform.

I remember them being in glass cases in the Union.

I think the deal with the late Sherrill MSU logo was that Nike actually designed it, so they somehow retained the rights to it.

Does Montana State have Nike uniforms?

I'm pretty sure the one that I took photos of at the press conference downstairs in the academic center was already there when everyone filed in. I didn't see who had the one at the pep rally, but they probably kept it upstairs for people to look at upstairs while the presser was going on. Oh, and imo the Maroon Facemask looks SHARP.

Why did we ever leave Nike (as well as the old logo) and go with retardku Russell? With LT, I'm sure it had something to do with money, but was it really worth dumping the whole image of our university for? Seriously, does anyone know why we split with Nike back in the day?

that GB put on DM? And the maroon on the SPS website is not nearly dark enough. The site designers need to take that helment pic into PhotoShop, use the eyedropper tool and update the SPS graphics.

What wacky uni are you talking about. You are right about one thing though, Crooms didnt choose to go to russell. LT was in charge of that decision.

....is to make sure EA Sports gets informed of the the change so that we don't have to lock 50 threads in July about how they screwed up the uniforms on NCAA Football 2010.

This one is my favorite too. Maroon mask and all. I wonder when we will get a glimpse of the uniforms?

The biggest one that sticks out in my mind is the helmet we had during the 2003 UMiss game--they were freakin Alabama helmets with numbers on the side.
