Thats ugly as hell! But kinda cool too

 

[57stratdawg]

I don’t hate it.

I don’t hate it.

I don’t know maybe orange man is bad.

Oh, the helmet is an image of an old school leather helmet. That one took me a minute to see- like a 90s 3d poster.
'A schooner is a sailboat, stupid head!'

Thanks, I had no idea what I was supposed to be seeing.

Sorry that's just U-G-L-Y.

I thought it was a pumpkin for halloween.

Well, I'll be nice and say they aren't as bad as Maryland's Commonwealth unis or anything Oregon has worn in the last decade. But, as a player I'd be embarrassed to put that on

“Illinois drip” sounds like an STD you catch during a trip to Chicago.

Throwback Red Grange jersey looks good.

BTW, Illinois beat State 27-0 in 1923 on their way to winning a retrospective national title that year.

Grange didn’t play as we weren’t any threat to the Illini back then.

No. 22 Illinois will host No. 24 Michigan on Saturday at 2:30 p.m. CT for the Memorial Stadium Rededication Game. The contest between two ranked foes comes 100 years and one day after Memorial Stadium's initial dedication and Red Grange's historic six-touchdown performance against the Wolverines.

Those look pretty cool and this whole thing seems well done. I won't ask how you dug up that fun fact but have to love the language of old .... "top heavy score". I know I'm hoping the score won't be as top heavy this year as it was last against A&M.

 

[HailStout]

I kind of love it

What happens in Chicago stays in Chicago except the Illinois drip. It's coming back with you.

My first thought was "they're leaking onto Memphis???"

 

[DesotoCountyDawg]

The helmet makes me think of Alien Nation.

 

[L4Dawg]

Those are cool!

 

[OopsICroomedmypants]

I like the helmet. Jersey is a little too odd

 

[FormerBully]

I hate it, but I love it. It is hard to explain my view.

 

[aTotal360]

Love it.

 

[RocketDawg]

At first glance, thought he was wearing a camera. Bottom line is it looks ridiculous.
