Illinois Football Uniforms

Love these Ill-ini helmets and full color uni sets View attachment 52236

This is genius

 

[Oskeefan]

how is that no call

Really wish we made the arched Illini our default helmet. Use the Giants underlined "Illinois" a few times a year with certain orange combos that look good, and throw in the script for bowls if you want.
Just anything but the block I

I’d just retire the Block I. It does not look good on a helmet at all.

Arched Illini as the default, switch out between the blue and white (I’m guessing the blue will look better with white and white will look better with blue, but I’m willing to be convinced otherwise).

Slant Illinois for all-orange.

Script Illinois for postseason

 

[LadyLoyalty]

Ill-ini all whites

 

[Bucktown]

Serious question - what’s the argument to use the Block I ever? Do you think it ever crosses Michigan’s mind to rotate in a Block M helmet instead of wearing their cooler one every game?

Because it’s the logo of the University.

Because it’s the logo of the University.

Ohio State, Alabama, Michigan, Notre Dame, USC, Penn State, Florida, etc. all have helmets that do not feature their standard logos, so I think we’d be okay!

Did anyone else catch Bret say Blue Illini Helmets? Does that mean we are getting the blue version of these next week?

I can't imagine how badly Illinois would be eviscerated on social media if they play poorly and literally have "ill" written on their helmets.

he said “electric blue”
I’m thinking it’s a new previously not seen blue helmet

is there such a thing as candy apple blue ?

it would just need to be a darker shade

 

[mattcoldagelli]

Just hopping in here to point everyone to the abomination the Lions are currently sporting. Every single element of it is somehow worse than the last.

 

[BZuppke]

I predict script Illinois helmets like the bowl game

[RoundBalcs]

I caught “live @$$ blue helmets”…

 

[Fighter of the Nightman]

Navy Arched ILLINI would be so epic.

Someone mock that up, please!

[Mr. Tibbs]

I don’t know what live @$$ blue helmets means , but I am guessing it’s one we’ve never seen before . I don’t think it’s the blue script we wore in the music city bowl game

Need to decide on a helmet (not Block I) to create a better brand. Arched Illini my first choice, script and then slant Illinois, but they need to settle on a consistent helmet look, IMO. Let Oregon keep changing up their “outfits”.

Amen. If it needs to be Block I, fine … HORRIBLE, deranged choice, but at least it’s a choice. Right now, we’re in this directionless limbo where we utilize our worst option as often as possible while still not often enough that it’s a clear-cut standard.
