Worst College Football Helmets (Historically)

[cycopath25]

Saw a post on Twitter where they were discussing the worst college football helmets of all time. Obviously the ISU "Bugles" helmet came up in the discussion. Just curious what other ones you guys think. Of course we all hate the Hawkeyes so we can get that joke out of the way quick.


I'll post these two just to get the ball rolling.

That took exactly as long as it needed to to appear.

Almost anything is better than the stripe at Penn St. Alabama is a close second.

How about the ND "we went to a cut-rate body shop" helmets?

I thought of this one as well. I've tried to post a camo one Virginia Tech wore a couple years ago but the file won't upload for some reason.

This.

Maryland has put out some terrible stuff the last couple years. UA is trying so hard to have Maryland be their version of Oregon/Nike.

Gross on about a dozen levels.

Look at literally every other Sports Team in the state of Maryland and you will see they all incorporate the State Flag into their team in some way shape or form. Are they great helmets? No. But it certainly makes sense why they would have those helmets.

If you take one of the least visually appealing state flags and try to make it work on a helmet, that's what you get.

You aren't gonna stop the state of Maryland. That state has more pride in it's flag than any other state by far (maybe California &Texas) and they are going to keep putting their Flag on any and everything they can.

Uhh have you ever heard of Texas?

throw Texas in there too, I guess. But I tend to completely ignore the entire state of Texas unless one of my sports teams is playing against one of theirs.
