That was never a problem with Marshall's football team that has 75 on their helmets (for the number of lives lost in the team's plane crash of 1970).

Which is fine. I'm just saying in our particular case and the fact that the correct abbreviation for a year is with an apostrophe, we decided to go with the apostrophe instead of just the number. Some will love it some will hate it. Can't please everyone.

I personally liked the apostrophe, since teaching students how to use that properly is what I do for a living.

It may just be me but I have never been impressed with the blue but can live with it. Do not want to live with the jersey at home.

The blue is my third choice in jersey colors but I have always loved the red helmets the most.

Honestly I am more jazzed about the throwback jerseys the basketball team is wearing tonight.

Can any oldimers put a year with those throwback MBB uniforms?

I´ve never been much of a uni guy and don´t really get why some are so borderline obsessed with them. Ask me about a player, or even specific games, and I´m all over it.

Having said that, I´m pretty sure it´s pre-2000, and based on the significance of the teams, maybe 93-94, although I do remember they broke out brand new all red unis for the tourney game against UNC.

The script looks great. Hate the thick waistbands.

Agree with sly. Almost never like the blue jersey. Need a blue matte helmet the eagle in white and white face mask. I think thats the big problem with the blue jersey is that none of the existing helmets look right to me with it.

Perhaps someone with some graphic design skill could make this for fun. But I don't think the answer for the blue helmet is another eagle logo like the red and white helmets. I think the answer is in the Liberty 24 car that William Byron drove this season. I think a blue helmet with red/white flames trailing off the facemask similar to this Titans' concept would be fun.
