Can't people think up anything other than ranking something to pass the time, or has everybody been lobotomized by ESPN?

Don't know what ESPN has to do with anything, but to answer your question... sometimes.

I've never been a fan of the Virginia helmet.

Texas' helmet isn't bad... I love their campus. Took a tour of it in December when I was in Austin doing some work. Very nice city.

I never liked Miami's combination of orange and green. Actually I'm not a big fan of green for a teams colors.

#5 is always ugly by the way (although it is a classic).

I've always really loved the Miami helmet itself, but I agree with the combo with the rest of the uniform. Oregon is truly horrid - I understand that they're basically Nike's personal guinea pig, but it's gotten comical.

I'd go:
(1) Michigan
(2) USC
(3) Texas
(4) Clemson
(5) Georgia
(6) Tennessee
(7) Stanford
(8) Miami
(9) Ohio State (with the Buckeye stickers)
(10) UNC

I don't like Tennessee's helmet. That creamsicle orange and white makes it hard to see where one color ends, and the other begins. If they had outlined the orange with a black line, it would be much more tolerable...

Michigan has always been one of my favorites and after that, even though I hate to admit it, Miami's isn't bad either. After that, the others are okay but nothing special. A matter of individual taste and school loyalty.

I like Michigan's colors. But I do not like that glob on their helmets. I don't like Delaware's either, since it's the original...
