Another cool idea would be to make the pony in the helmet the American flag for the game played on Veteran's Day weekend

That's a great idea.

I would prefer to keep the helmets the way they are and simply add a patch to the helmet and/or uniform.

I like keeping the traditional look but for certain events/holidays I don't mind thinking out of the box and doing something like this.

I like it, but the flag is going the wrong way. The flag should never be "running away" if you get what I mean.

There's a reason the in the military the put the flag on their right arm and the stars are in the top right corner. Shows the running into battle, never away form it

ala this

I've actually always wondered why the flags were like that. It's always seem backwards to me but didnt want to offend someone in uniform and ask a dumb question like that haha. Thank you that makes sense and is actually a really cool reason

Probably that hideous blue Mustang on the all-white helmet with white facemask that most everyone hated..

and the same current jerseys.

Ha ha I'd be so pissed...

It would blow my mind if we stepped out in the royal blues, or the darker Cotton Bowl jerseys...

So it seems obvious that it will be blue jerseys, ala 1983 Cotton Bowl I'm guessing.

My fear is that we lose the game, and they are forever known as 'bad luck', like Notre Dame's green jerseys, and we are stuck with red for the rest of time.

You're making too much sense. Clearly they were awful luck in the early 80's as well
