re: I hope Kiffin fixes the yard line numbers

no, many people notice.

I noticed it immediately and hated it. It's the Geaux font (which I generally like) but it looks awful on the yard line numbers.

I swear the numbers in those two photos look exactly the same to me. I feel like ya'll are messing with me.

The older numbers are better. Also, the coach decides on how the field looks. Les said this when he took over. Hence the endzone change from 2004-2005. He liked the numbers though.

I’m without power now for 4 days finally got phone charged, we have no water no generator no life no heat and no nothing. I get on here for the first time to catch some news and some whiner true to the Rant is bitching about the side numbers on a football field. Oh God Serenity Now SERENITY NOW

Kiffin’s first task is to change the numbers on the scoreboard. Let’s make sure wd have more on our side than their side.

It would also be nice to crack 30.

I didn't notice it but now I can't unsee it. Now I'm pissed off about something very insignificant.

I probably wouldn’t have noticed if they hadn’t told us they changed for the 100 year anniversary of Tiger Stadium. The previous style had a shadow effect to them. Almost like they were 3d.

Don't have a major opinion on the font, but liked them better with the shading.

Also miss the old endzones where the font went across the whole thing

Yes, the yard line numbers need to go back to old font.

The Tiger Eye needs to be centered between the 45 and 50, not centered on the 50.

The end zones need to go back to the old font from the 70s.





What, you want me to talk about the basketball team?

GEAUX TIGERS

If I am correct, the angle on the numbers is 58°. It was done on the jerseys several years ago during the Miles era to honor the 1958 national championship team. I think the numbers on the field were done for the same reason. If you look at Ole Miss jerseys, they are basically the same template as ours except we have numbers on the shoulders. Look at the difference in the size of the numbers, look at the angles on the numbers. Go back to 2007 Lsu jersey and you will see the numbers or different. I wish we would go back to those numbers as they were bigger and easier to read. The new numbers on the jerseys look small.
