White Helmets

Postby Ponymon » Sat Nov 28, 2015 12:11 pm

On TV, its very hard to see the silver pony against the white. I would forget this design. IMHO

And they make our defense look slow, devoid of talent and porous.

When my boys saw them on twitter earlier in the week, they were very pumped about them, but when seeing them on TV, they asked "are those the same ones". Design looked good on paper, but doesn't project well on TV. At least they are trying.

They look solid white on standard def hotel tv. Like we forgot to bring helmets and picked some up at Academy this morning.

Looks like we're wearing blank white helmets. Photo up close did look better.

on a positive note-maybe nobody will recognize us-perhaps we can go will Silver Lettering too

You know who tried that at Hawaii and enough media complained they never wore them again

First choice on the white helmet should be red mustang, if not red

then make it blue mustang with a red stripe.

I liked it for a one off. Fairly creative. Generally I've liked the uniform game this year.

Stupid, but it works well when all of the networks are showing highlights of us getting drilled 63-0 and nobody can really tell who we are.

Ugly. Put a mustang with color and a strip on he helmet. We looked worse than most high school teams in Vermont.

Personally I think they were the worst looking SMU helmets I've seen in recent history
