No it cannot be moved. If you moved it it would be all off. Every helmet is measured when the decals are done every week. They all fall in the same place. And yes the holes are for air flow and keeping the players cool

Miles has lost control of the decals.

That list lost any credibility when they put Oregon and Maryland in the top ten.

Sometimes for Texas the air vent looks like it's extending the horn downward, and I've taken a second to realize it's not part of the decal. LSU's helmets have always looks solid to me, vents and all.

I've always liked our helmets. They have a cool logo with the tiger and the LSU. How many other helmets have both on them and they look good together.

We need to stick to our traditional helmet/design as closely as possible.

Call me crazy but id rather have the best team than the best helmets.... Do away withe ucla stripes since they don't apply to modern jerseys


Why not have the best team AND the best helmets.

And i completely agree with hating the shoulder stripes. They looked great in the 70s, but jerseys are now so tight that the shoulder stripes look downright silly. They look like suspenders.

If we want to keep them, we could move them more over the arm like Nebraska, or instead use a crecent shaped shoulder accent, like USC.

This thread is legit.

And I don't like the vent problem either. How hard is it for this not to be a problem?

I think I now understand the people who had an issue with the white pipes on Tiger Stadium.

Knowing LSU, it probably would have taken a 12 person committee $3 million and 8 months to study and recommend a better decal layout. And it still would have sucked worse.

So there, you saved time and money.

The shite job on the lettering annoys me too, but not as much as our yellow uniforms. It's purple and gold, not purple and yellow. Notre damn knows what gold looks like, therefore I have them a 3 point favorite.
