SMU Football Helmet History

[PonySoprano]

Not trying to start another debate over our helmet design, but I found this history and though it was very good.

Pony Soprano-

First of all, your handle is great. Secondly, there's actually another thread on the board (probably in the last four pages) that links to another interesting read on our helmet history. Just thought you'd enjoy that one too.

The team should switch back to the red helmets with the white mustang.

[PlanoStang]

Yup, red with white decals

[Diamond Girl]

Nope. White with red ponies.

I prefer the white with red trim myself, but that requires a complete uniform change from what we're in today. If these guys start winning with the NY Giants look, it will probably grow on me. Maybe it was the Pony Express running wild in those white w/red trim helmets that I really liked anyways.

[PlanoStang]

Nope. White with red ponies.

How bout a compromise? A red helmet with an oversized white Pony
decal.

I'd rather stick with our current helmet (it DOES look good) or the white helmet. A red helmet with white pony will just make everyone call us arkansas rip-offs.

[PlanoStang]

Like we're not already a NY Giant rip-off

Diamond Girl knows what she is talking about. Lets go back to our tradtional Pony Express look. Ever notice how real powers like USC,OU,Texas,Florida etc.. DO Not change uniforms.

If you look at our helmet history, we have been changing uniforms forever. I like the current look, and hope it stays for a long while.

Do you remember when Cavan brought in the Red NY Jets knockoff jerseys?! Yikes
