Brown is beautiful.
Re: Throwback Helmets for Legacy Weekend?
Orange jerseys, white pants today.
Re: Throwback Helmets for Legacy Weekend?
Those are nice. I hope Nike brings us back those helmets and gives us brown jerseys too.
Re: Throwback Helmets for Legacy Weekend?
I didn't notice this until just now, but when we played Buffalo a few weeks ago our white helmet actually had a white facemask. We have had a brown face mask the last few years for both the white and brown helmets.
GO BG!!!

I miss brown. I mean, our hockey team looks spectacular in those tootsie roll sweaters. If it was up to me, the football team would wear brown at home pretty much all the time.ziggy17 wrote:Those are nice. I hope Nike brings us back those helmets and gives us brown jerseys too.
That said, I'm really happy with the current logo.

Re: Throwback Helmets for Legacy Weekend?
BGSU isn't going back to the old logo full-time for the helmets, and you can bet that Nike will have us in some funky-looking threads every now and then.
But the guys I've talked to sincerely hope that we'll at least get these helmets once a year going forward, particularly if a brown throwback jersey is involved.
As it is, the look with the throwback helmets today is fantastic. And it makes WMU's already-horrible uniforms look even worse.

I always loved those helmets! They were very unique. I never bought the criticism that nobody could figure out what it was.

WMU's helmets are a little weird, but I like their uniforms. They wear brown. They embrace the color the way we should in Bowling Green.Statmanmatt wrote: As it is, the look with the throwback helmets today is fantastic. And it makes WMU's already-horrible uniforms look even worse.

The bookstore has the old logo swag available. I've grown to enjoy the peak-a-boo logo but the LT logo is, by far, my favorite logo of any sports franchise at any time.
It was minimalistic, clean, and classy.

The game was a loss, but those helmets looked fantastic.
Granted, I'm biased.
