per CBS:

8. Minnesota in Wisconsin colors. Wisconsin's cardinal really makes the Minnesota M pop against the white background.

Oh hell no!

I'm so uncomfortable with this. I want to hate it, but I can't hate the "M".

Is that a Montana helmet?

The helmet looks like Stanford or Nebraska with that single red stripe. Bucky's has 2 stripes.

After 8 months of off season, the end of the college football Internet has officially been reached.

I'd like to see Wisconsin's helmet with a gold W on a maroon helmet... Or Michigan's helmet with in Scarlet and Gray.

Oregon's didn't surprise me at all, given how many combinations they use. I just figure that if they restrict themselves to frequencies of light the human eye can detect, they are being restrained.

Here is where the red & white Gopher helmet is from:

From a purely objective standpoint it looks pretty good. The Block M is a huge improvement on Wisconsin's "Motion W" and the red and white is a clean color combination. That being said, it looks like trash because of the Wisconsin association and I hate it.
