Don't know why people shite on a Carolina's logo. Before I was a student there, I thought it was one of the better and more recognizable logos in the conference. Busy, perhaps, but not a Nikefied shitburger like Angry Smokey or Fat Uga.

Not crazy about Miss State's current M/ribbon. Preferred the Sherrill-era MSU. Baseball MS is fire, though.



The irony: the Sherrill-era interlocking MSU logo was not owned by State, but by Nike. When Croom came in State switched over to Russell and gone was the "MSJ" logo.

I always liked the old "Flying M" logo, but that's just out of some weird nostalgia.

On State's baseball logo, years ago I ran across some guy wearing a hat with that logo and started talking to him, assuming he was a State fan. Turns out, he didn't even know what hat he was wearing, he just bought it because he thought the logo was cool.

I like the rifleman motif a lot more than the dog. I wish they hadn't pushed that.

Whoever decided on the matte helmets needs shot. I believe it was petrino, actually. Needs ditched , too.
I liked the matte look over the normal helmet sheen. But I like this new chrome look way more than matte. If we go that direction, I'm all for ditching the matte. We just have a shade of red that looks damn sexy chromed out.

That's cause you're from Texas which, while being located on the southern border is not the south but actually the south west

I wonder when PETA or some other group looking to protect all animals of the world, decides to dive in and fight to those knife spurs off that USCs game chicken.

intersting how similar logos are in concept though:


Not really. More than likely the same company designed each logo. They use similar concepts for each.

For example, the company that designed the hated "tounces" logo for LSU also created around 20 other school logos that were equally as horrible.

Crazy thing about the VOLS Rifleman - I and every other person under 50 hated that damned logo when it was used. The oldsters loved it. Fast forward and now that it's retro looking and reminiscent of 8-bit video games, Atari, and Nintendo and errbody loves it.

That and the VOLS star logo (often used with the Rifleman like w/your pic) aged really well. Those designs were wayy ahead of their time, imo.

I saw where Princeton used it as well. I thought Clemson did too, but couldn't find any evidence of that.



Most likely Princeton was first. The Ivies were football for ages and Princeton was damn good wayyy back then.

Who had it first?


If you're seriously asking and not trolling, UGA had theirs in 1964 which predates that Georgetown logo.

The current M-State logo only looks decent with the silver accent. Without the accent it looks terrible.



Here's a Bulldog humping a garbage M-State



Here's our 80s Walking Mascot logo



and for discussion, the greatest classic collegiate logo
