I like the white helmet look for a game or two. My only problem with the white helmet and pants is the stripes.

I wish they would just go with the 3 stripes to match the jersey instead of the 5 shown in the image

The all whites were some of the best looking uniforms in any sport of all time.

Every couple of years, fine.
Tradition? HELL no.

White is fine for expressing solidarity with the victims of tragedy.
But frankly nothing comes close to the traditional look. Timeless classic!

My only issue is that the striping is not uniform. LSU normally will keep the alternate uniforms and helmets in the rack systems at ops. I know they still have the old gold and auburn helmets. Players will probably ask for all whites again since they know it's available.

I would prefer to keep these uniforms rare by not overdoing it. I love them as an occasional change up, but our traditional unis are perfect to me and symbolize LSU football. Can't dilute the brand by looking different every Saturday.

I would be fine if we busted out the white lids/pants once a year at most, but ideally only once every few years.

Yeah. There's no denying they look incredible and they're clean/fresh. But dammit the classic jerseys ARE LSU football. Every National/SEC championship we've won in the last 60 years has been in those jerseys and the majority of the other games as well. There's a tradition there and the design has proven to be timeless. I would think once a year would be too much. Once every couple of years would be fine. But when LSU's on the big stage against a huge opponent, I want them lacing up in the classic uniforms. They're just so LSU.

Im good with once a year....just for a little variety! Doesn't mean we're giving up a tradition or anything.

We've been calling for those for years. Just wish it was at home and for a victory.


We got our butts beat last time we wore them (at Ole Miss).

Nothing. Other than the fact that next to our current uniform they look second rate. Like I said. Every couple of years for an away game is fine.
