Watching UNC vs Duke and UNC's Chrome Helmets are sweet. I know another SEC team wore these this year, can't recall who, but would love for Auburn to sport them. They showed a locker room video of the players receiving the helmets and they were genuinely fired up about them

It'll take a WHOLE lot more to pull off a win in the Iron Bowl but the helmets might give the players a little extra pep in their step

These are just a few from Google Image




First pic was an actual helmet sent to a recruit by the Chizik (?) staff and the second is a concept helmet by War Blogle

We need something to fire us up, the coaches can't seem to do it.

If we need new helmets to get fired up for the Iron Bowl, then we might as well not even play.


Also never go full Beaver.

" will take a whole lot more"

All we have to do is not feed them turnovers and catch passes... easy game.

I like that we only have a gimmick offense. We don't need anything else.

@InsideCarolina: Woah, special chrome helmets. Ryan Switzer posted this shot from the pregame locker room LINK


Here's a pic of the UNC helmets for tonight along with a pic the players sent from the locker room. I doubt Auburn would ever actually wear them on the field but I liked the excitement the UNC players showed when presented with theirs. It just made me think how sometimes it's the small things that finally get thru to players.

The pictures I posted in the OP are just concepts and wouldn't be allowed on the field by the NCAA. But how can you guys NOT like the chrome helmets?

I'd rather see Clit Moseley get another start.

The blue doesn't stand out as much to me?

I like Auburn's current stance on uniforms, and that is to have absolutely no changes unless they're subtle...like the adjustments for the 50th anniversary of the 1957 National Championship. Having chrome helmets is a gimmick, it's tacky, gaudy, etc, and it's not a subtle change.
