New Vanderbilt helmets


I feel like this headline is repeated every week during the season. Vandy's uniforms are on par with Oregon-level tackiness.

Is that real? Is this a satirical thread? That is Louisville bad. Freaking gawd-awful. Yikes.

That's the same Vandy script they had when I was a wee lad from 1979-83.

The Nashville skyline on the helmet appears to be part of a trend this year for "city" schools to want to brand themselves to popular southern cities. For example:

GaTech: Is featuring the "404" on hats and on their helmets. Tech also has place "ATL" on their field.

SMU: has put the "D" on their helmet and the front of their jerseys has "Dallas" on it.

I really like the script "Vandy". That's pretty clean. Always love black and gold color schemes.

I don't, however, like the chrome facemasks. Especially with the metallic gold flakes in the paint of the shell of the helmet. Make the facemask black or gold to match the rest of the color scheme and that's a fantastic look imo.

Looks good but you can always count on loosing programs to change something about their uniforms to stay relevant in the press.( Except Oregon of course).

That ought to be the new normal. Go all in on Nashville which is perhaps the coolest growing city in the world right now.

If you get rid of the skyline and chrome facemask that's one of the best helmets in college football.


Yeah, they're going for a ridiculous version of these from the early 80s. The gold sparkles in the paint look dumb too IMO

As a Georgia fan, you should love these...
