I am petty. I am just curious if they are going to go back to using the original number fonts they've used for decades. Or are they going to keep using the new fonts that match the jersey numbers, that were used last year?

probably the updated end zones and "The Path" at mid-field. The melt on this website will be enormous.

Well the melt would be bc you don’t win recruiting battles bc of a midfield logo and on top of that, it sucks as a midfield logo regardless of intent.

That wasn’t a new font. They said it was the font used in 1958 I think

I think it would be cool if you had the state of LA but instead of " The path" you put the tiger eye

Those were my favorite End Zones as well. Disappeared in '05 and have hoped they would go back to it ever since then.

Not sure when that picture was taken, but it was long before 2003. My guess would be the early-to mid-1970's before any of the upper decks were added. I believe that end zone style was even used in the late 60's.

I think there's a pretty good chance that photo is from 2003.

The key for me is the white sidelines. Using only white on the sideline combined with those end-zones was unique to the Saban years.

That font was used from at least 1971 to 1985, but the eye was only added in either 83 or 84 (corresponding to the song). The endzones changed in 86 and the font only came back in the Hallman years, and then the Saban years. But, in all of those years, the sidelines were gold past the immediate sideline markings.
