What year did Dietzel change the uniforms to look more like the current style? 57?

First year was 58. Then we won a national championship so we kept them.

A wool jersey in south Louisiana? You may be able to wear that once a season if you're lucky.

Some sites say its 1958 and the Advocate says 1957. I"m more inclined to believe the advocate on this.

Yeah, looks like definitely '57.

Here's a pic of Jimmy Taylor in the new uni, and that was his last year.

I wonder why LSU didn't put a "42" sticker on their helmets for Jimmy Taylor, but put the "20" for Billy Cannon.

I love it, you're not just woofin' about the price. That's about 5 times what you pay for the current style game jersey in the student union.

It looks good, but a little overpriced.

The picture on top is Jimmy Taylor 1957. Tigers were already wearing the more modern style by then.

Note the bottom picture was 1956 in the old style purples, AT HOME. 1956 was the last year, before the 1980s, that LSU wore purple at home, and it was one of their worst seasons. It seems like the purple jinx took root back then.
