"white out" for the Thursday night game against Wake. I want to see a white helmet. I'm not saying all the time. Our orange helmet is the best helmets in college football, but breaking out a white helmet every once in a whole would be awesome.

They're the ultimate tradition program. If they can change up their uni's once and a while than we sure can. Plus it's HUGE for recruiting....they love that $#!T

Clemson has never worn a white helmet.

Why should it happen? Other than a few schools, the high profile schools (Bama, Texas, LSU, Notre Dame, Michigan, etc.) do not find it necessary to mess with their helmets. Our helmets are the best looking, easily recognizable helmets in the NCAA and their is no need to change.

LSU has white ones, ND has Gold with clover on the sides and UM busted one out with numbers on the sides as well. The UM numbers weren't big , but there nonetheless.

Silly. We have very distinguishable uniforms, and that creates a brand. Why would you want to hurt that brand with silly white helmets?

Wearing a white helmet once a year will not hurt our brand. Also recruits love these things.

I actually had an entire uniform idea back when I was an undergrad. The helmets were two tone, purple with orange flakes so when the light hit it, it looked orange. It also sported a white paw. It looked awesome.

I like the white helmet with the orange paw, but would only want to see it in specific games. I don't want to see it become an every other game sort of thing though.

recruits and kids love this stuff. Even back in the day Danny knew this and it was a factor in us winning. I'm pretty sure Danny's exact words were "You'd be amazed at what a kid will do if you let him wear orange britches." Go ask Oregon how it helps their recruiting. Not saying we need to go crazy like that, but once a year would be cool.

I agree, even teams with traditional approaches to uniforms like uga, nd, and michigan have alternates that they break out every so often. Whiteout would look sweet.

Better call ESPN and get them to stop using that white flag with orange paw logo every week. Would hate for that to hurt our brand.

It's not like wearing the 1939 throwback helmet in once in 1995 and once in 1996 hurt our identity any.
