August 31, 20214 yr I hate it so much. Chocolate brown is not burnt orange, it is not any orange, and it is ugly. After like 20 years we finally get the turf the right color and we have to screw up the helmets again? If the "burnt orange" on the jersey and the helmet are different colors, at least one of them is the wrong color by definition. And the right one can't be the one that is not a shade of orange at all, and doesn't match one other thing in that stadium. It's much closer to aggy maroon than it is to burnt orange. It sucks.

August 31, 20214 yr This is the best they've looked for a long time. Steve Patterson fucked up ASU as well. It was during his tenure they tried to get rid of the classic Sparky and introduce the disney Sparky, and went with the pitchfork instead.
August 31, 20214 yr Is this really a throwback logo? I checked the helmet project and it doesn't show this symbol. It looks like something a fly-by-night tech company would come up with as a brand.

I was thinking it might be a reference to the Wichita flag design (which is good and KU's colors) but not quite Spoiler

Disagree. That color on the helmet is the same color I have on my game worn helmet from the 1990's. It's fucking rad. Aggy Maroon is either a stupid version of purple or a lame version of red.

September 1, 20214 yr 5 hours ago, Zeus said: Asking the fans to wear white as well. Not a huge fan of the stormtrooper look with the orange helmet. If you are going to break from tradition (traditional home units are fantastic), then go all out with the alt white helmets which we already have. This feels like a half step, which is no step at all.

There's just something about that Orange helmet with the gators cursive that is just so fucking iconic I don't really love helmet changes with the Gators. Probably my love for the ole ball coach's Gator teams growing up.

I'm going to make my comment, and then duck and leave the room but, I think the stripes on the pants look really good, better than all whites.

September 3, 20214 yr Love the UNT helmet logo. The green is a little too neony for my taste, but still looks pretty good.

September 3, 20214 yr Overall I like the look, and the helmet logo I guess has historical relevance, so that's pretty cool.
