Oh No: White helmets for UGA

[78]

Sleeker?

Drag coefficent on the "Gators" vs. "F." Much better. You're a car guy. You knew that.

True. My balls hang in tandem for the same reason.

Which side of Saturday's helmet do you prefer? I think I'm partial to the left. Looks sleeker.

From the video posted on UF Football's FB page, it appears to me that BOTH sides are going to have the script Gator. Nonetheless, despite everyone else disliking it, I like the slanted F and do think it looks "quicker." I don't like two different logos on either side. Choose one and stick with it for both sides.

I'm not generally as opposed to the dreaded slanted F as most others. But I don't think it looks right on the helmet at all. And again, power of perception and association. I'll take the left. Oohh, also maybe that left one in orange. That sounds really nice.

I like the F, but I'm not entirely a "get off my lawn" type, either. I do agree the F looks bad on the helmet and the Gators script is the definitive look for the helmet, preferably in orange.

Yeah, same effect as a rear differential.

The slanted F is GAF and should never be on anything. It was a Jeremy Fooley approval and has his stench all over it. The block F is bad ass and should be used on both sides of the helmet. Even the UF intertwined looks good. Gator head logo would look good. Bury that slanted F.

We talkin bout fonts.

We always say the Gator head, but in reality it doesn't really work on the helmet. It's actually better as an accent piece on the jersey or pants.

(And I'm about to get some major shyt for saying that.)

I don't like the Gator head logo on the helmets, either - just doesn't look right. The slanted F doesn't bother me like it does some of you but I really like the script and think it looks pretty good on the white helmets.

How does this “not work”?

 

[NVGator]

We talkin bout fonts.

Yes. Block font is much more conservative just as the cursive Gators. Slanted looks like a liberal millennial designed it.

The Gator head is too overpowering. The script or F work better, but just commit to one instead of going all Sybil.

We'd have a dilemma if we went to the white helmet. If we wore the blue jersey at home, the orange fans would feel left out.

I just read a post of yours and agreed with everything you said.

This conversation helps me better understand why the designers of the new helmet chose multiple logos. It appeases more fans. Maybe that is the best way to go.

It's actually not a bad look, but, please, no head-to-toe white look. That's a bit much. Give the fans some orange or blue on the road to break up the monotony of all-white. I don't wanna look like Miami.

 

[bradgator2]

I’ve always been partial to classic blue myself.

 

[Zambo]

How about solid blue helmet with a big orange CHOMP on the side?

 

[Black Dahlia]

 

[MJMGator]

Yeah, I’d look good in that!
