I could not get used to LSU in white, it was a struggle for me all night. Loved the helmets though, hope they wear them again. It was a nice tribute for an incredible sacrifice WW1 was brutal.

Nooooooooo not Purple jerseys at home! LSU sucked for the most part when we wore purple jerseys. Many thought they were...are bad luck. more importantly they don’t look as good as our white jerseys.

Awesome helmets, but very hard to get use to that being LSU out there.

They sucked.
Confusing to watch.
No names
Stupid numbers.
The valiant war dead of 1917-18 turned in their graves.
Too much white
Not enough gold
Never again

Just because it looks different doesn’t mean it looks better!

Terrible. Even as a one-time thing, they were terrible.

And let’s not pretend they were about honoring anyone. It was a marketing opportunity with Nike to sell merchandise.

I liked everything but the numbers. I realize that the numbers were a nod to the old style used in primitive times but they were fugly.
Never saw the purple helmets look anything other than purple.

Helmet: good
Jersey/pants: bad

Hated the giant numbers
Needed shoulder stripes
And I didn’t like the plain thin purple stripe. It needed some gold

I had a hard time believing it really was LSU that I was watching. I appreciate the time and effort that went into the design in an attempt to pay homage to the 1918 season and to those who sacrificed for the greater cause of freedom through fighting un WWI, but it sure was weird to watch the team last night.

They sucked! I didn't feel like I was watching LSU. I won't go as far as to say it totally ruined the game for me, but it put a damper on my enthusiasm for sure.

Too much white.

If MSU was in maroon or our pants where purple it would have worked.

They were very tough to see in the stadium. If you looked at the jumbo screens you could see some shine and color change but looking straight at the field they looked almost black and dull.

Liked the helmet and white uniform, numbers sucked. I would guess in direct sunlight the color changing would be more obvious. Could use some gold in the overall scheme, and I did like the cleats.
