Helmets with letters and words just aren't that great. It should be unique enough to stand alone with a logo.

Ole Miss is hamstrung by their offensive mascot, so they sort of get a pass. But still, just using powder blue, while a sharp look, isn't all that groundbreaking. It isn't a school color.

The best looking helmets are those that are unique enough to not require letters or words. You all know this is true.

There is no “worst” helmet. I actually think every team has a distinctive and interesting design.

Did a millenial write this or something?

Auburn and USC basically have the same helmet, their logo is just better. Both look good with all white uniforms.

I know we don't have the cleanest looking logo, but at least we've stuck with tradition. The block C has been around a long time and I'd hate to see us get rid of it.

In all fairness to USCe, it can't be easy to make a good looking logo using a fricking chicken.

SEC outsider opinion:

Mizzou should be near the bottom, bump LSU way up the ladder, Vandy one slot ahead of Mizzou and A&M is better than #13. Arky needs more love as well.

As a purist I'm okay with Bama at #1, but LSU has the best looking lids by far all just based on appearance. He got MSU correct... Ugly.

Classic. Terrible fans and a terrible program that pulled the most chicken shite move in the history of college football and broke the contract with A&M because they were sick of getting molested on the football field, but still a great helmet.


A series that LSU leads 32-20-3 and has won 6 straight, but continue clinging on to 5 games 20+ years ago

Bizarre he says Georgia's hasn't changed & should alter the facemask color, yet praises Alabama because they never change!

WTF?

How the hell is Vanderbilt #2?

I'd easily put them bottom half

Love shiny helmets. TA&M's matte finish makes me want to clean it.

The Vandy one isn't very good.

And LSU should be up there. As stated somewhere above, some things just have a classic look even if they are ugly, and I think the LSU one is in that space. The colors make it look overbusy while actually being pretty straightforward.

Hard to explain but it works in a very unique way.

Yeah pretty much. Every non LSU sec fan I have talked to thinks the LSU helmet is beautiful. Sorry you have bad taste.

This list is garbage. The only reason Bama's helmet is red with just a number is that they could not think of a mascot for an algal bloom

You're either a very restrained poster or an alter that's taking an ID around the block to make sure the battery doesn't die.
