I love our uniforms, but we can freshen it up a bit and still keep the tradition. To those who say we can't change the uniforms, I say why not? Surely you realize that, back in the 50s and 60s, LSU only had numbers on the side of our helmets. We went to the "LSU" and "helmet Mike" in the early 70s. No reason we can't tweak our helmet design again.

Helmet: change the "electrical tape" font to the new geaux font. Change the Tiger Mike head (which is currently unrecognizable) to something more updated.

Jerseys: The shoulder stripes look ridiculous. Back in the old days when jerseys had sleeves, our shoulder stripes looks great, but now they look like suspenders. Change to a USC type of shoulder stripe. Also, the shade of purple on our jerseys doesn't come close to the darker purple on our helmet.

I just don't get it. We probably spend a fortune on our uniforms - why not make them perfect.

we've done this before on linemen's jerseys, it looked bad

that's the material. this has been mentioned before. a lot of teams face this problem because colors appear differently based on the material it's printed on
