The Ducks are wearing essentially the same helmet Rice wore in the Liberty Bowl. Silver feathers in lieu of Blue.

I was about to post this. Oregon wears a ripoff of the Rice ripoff of Oregon helmets

As good a reason as any to root for either side in this game. I really don't care who wins. So I'll pretend the Ducks are Owls and cheer for them.

Which were our version of their helmets anyway.

I agree with the posters in the past who have said we should not vary so much from our OE "R" for awhile, especially in bowl games where the opportunity to display our brand to folks who do not watch the rest of our season presents itself.

Now that C-USA won the Bowl Challenge Cup, I'm happy to root for the Quack Quacks as well.

I wonder whether Rice has any IP rights to the design ? Naaah ... IMG probably gave the rights away.

What I want to know is: can we start a fundraiser to for the missing third of Ezekiel Elliott's jersey?

Not missing, it's rolled up (like Eddie George):

Is it safe to say that these helmets allow for 1 solid driver resulting in 7 points? This is followed by a generally miserable game and a convincing loss.

Needless to say, OER = AFB and Hawaii Bowl win. Keep it.
