"Dear Team X", please return to a former look/jersey/helmet...
On the theme of Pitt's helmet announcement, returning to the scripted Pitt helmet, here's a good topic for today:

What schools should return to a permanent "throwback" look (helmets, uniforms, or both)...?

Pitt -- check.

The current Syracuse uniforms are an abomination.
Return to the Donovan McNabb look, 'Cuse!

Call me crazy for thinking the Orange ought to wear orange.

By the same token, the Cardinals ought to wear RED, not grey!

Agreed on both counts. Syracuse's uniform during the McNabb era was one of the sharpest in college football. Now, they look like a MAC team. Though, judging by today's news, they have much bigger fish to fry in Central New York.

Seriously, cuse looks hideous.

Gt having their "throwback" look would be nice.

I wish uf wrote that abrasive blue on Orange combo more often.

I wish more schools used helmet stickers.

I'd like like to see Oregon in their old green and yellow colors more often, even if it was still all Nike-ed up.

Arizona state's old sun devil and trident was MUCH better than their current rendition.

Not too many teams of worth that need to make significant changes, though.

Louisville should go back to our traditional white football helmets (preferably with white facemask). The black helmet was nice for a game, but now they just bug me.

All red uni's for home. All white on the road. All black for a special game.

03-no

This is what a proper GT throwback looks like:

I favor that navy top the most. After that the white one. I also think it is okay to have black watch helmets for the defense again but only if the defense stops sucking.
