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.

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

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.

Just fortunate that the Wikipedia entry below had cited sources with hyperlinks.

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