College Football Final doesn't have an LSU helmet

At the end of today's CFF show, where they pass out the helmet stickers for outstanding performances, Jesse Palmer wanted to give Joe Burrow a sticker for his game last night vs Georgia Southern, but said he couldn't because LSU has never sent ESPN a helmet or stickers.

Yes, I know these ESPN shows are self-aggrandizing, and yes, Palmer is the biggest poser windbag of the bunch, but still ... this show is watched all over the country by college football fans and High School players, and they have helmets for Alabama, North Carolina, Texas, etc. sitting right there on the table getting closeups, free advertising, and no LSU helmet because nobody in our marketing department has thought to send ESPN a freaking helmet.

We can do better than that.

Jesse Palmer is one of the few pro-LSU guys on that network. I say if Palmer asks for an LSU helmet, when need to give the man an LSU helmet.

He and SVP love them some Saturday night in Death Valley.. i doubt he took it, but i’m pretty sure someone at the network had to have stolen it.. how else do you explain them not having one, when an LSU helmet was omnipresent on the set as little as 3 or 4 years ago, not just on the SVP & Russillo show, but on other shows as well.. someone snatched it, and yeah i think it’d be a good idea to get them another one, for times like this when they want to give players like Burrow a helmet sticker.. because like it or not, high school recruits watch these shows.

FWIW, Burrow was again awarded a helmet sticker by CFF this morning - and this time ESPN did have an LSU helmet on the set, lol.
