        You are busy. I didn't want you to lose valuable time reading articles that wouldn't interest you.

          Well, if you want, we can talk about that one time we beat you. And then, when we're done with that, we can talk about the other time we beat you.

          Frankly, I think DDD was doing you a great favor. If we're talking about helmets, then at least you've got something to talk about. If we were to stick with times when one team beat another, you wouldn't be able to participate. And really, who wants that?

            I know you don't spend much time around this forum, but try to keep up. I was talking to Triplet the Southern Cal fan, not Triplet the Coug. Hence the "reduced to" line. Southern Cal used to brag about wins. Now they brag about helmets. I'm expecting cleat smack anytime now.

                This list sucks. Clemson? Tennessee? Arkanstupid? USC??

                OU, as much as it pains me to say it, has a pretty sweet helmet.

                  I like USC's uniforms with the exception of the cheesy sticker on the helmet. If Bama is going to make it, I don't see why OU wouldn't make it, especially ahead of Arkansas. I also like Auburn's helmets.

                  IMO, the top 5:

                  Michigan
                  Texas
                  Miami
                  Georgia
                  UCLA (sorry DDD, just being honest)
                  Part of it is based on academic grounds. Among major conferences, the Pac-10 is the best academically, largely because of Stanford, Cal and UCLA. “Colorado is on a par with Oregon,” he said. “Utah isn’t even in the picture.”

                    This list sucks. Nebraska and Penn State have the most boring helmets of time and all eternity.
                    Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

                      Notre Dame not being #1 makes this list useless.

                      Any other meaningless links you'd like to share?

                        This is how we can tell you're not a football person.

                        I absolutely love Penn States Unis, particularly the helmet. There is a difference between classic and boring.

                          IMO I think my top 5 includes Michigan, Penn State, Texas, Notre Dame and Bama.

                          Miami is probably in the next group for me with USC, Oklahoma and Ohio State.

                          I don't think Georgias knock off of Green Bay is enough to push it to top five, though I do like it and would probably keep it top 20. I'm not a huge fan of UCLAs helmet, but that's just me.

                            Meh. Classic equals old in this case. Penn state's uniforms look like the stock generic uniforms you see on athlete's foot commercials.

                              Why do you put Notre Dame in the top 5? They have the exact same helmet as Navy and Army except the facemask. I don't get this.

                              Penn State is at least arguable because I'm not sure anyone has the plain white helmet with the pin stripe.

                              Georgia's knock off looks better than Green Bay's helmet because of the colors.

                              If Washington's team were any good, I think a lot more people would be mentioning Washington.
                              Part of it is based on academic grounds. Among major conferences, the Pac-10 is the best academically, largely because of Stanford, Cal and UCLA. “Colorado is on a par with Oregon,” he said. “Utah isn’t even in the picture.”
