Michigan States attempt at the winged helmet in 1933 (five years prior to Michigan's first use of the winged helmet in 1938.... Fritz Crisler brought the design from Princeton to Michigan... they were used beginning in 1935 by Princeton).

The Spartans weren't the first to use the winged helmet. The NY Giants used them for two years from 1930-31, and the Chicago Bears used them in 1931-32.

If Kansas was actually good at football their helmets would be one considered one of the better ones. I don't mind them at all.
agree, they need to ditch those generic gray facemasks too, same with USCw, those chome masks that USC sports are super.

I've always thought the Maryland helmet designer got about half way through finishing that helmet, then said, "Fuck it! Send that shit out!"

I don't know what a "Golden Hurricane" is, but it sounds ghey as fuck.
We got two high school mascots similar. Amarillo High School is the Golden Sandstorms (shortened to Sandies). Why the hell would anyone want to honor a sandstorm? I've had enough of those things in my lifetime. Lamesa High School is the Golden Tornadoes.

Ain't nuttin' golden about either one of those things!

I hear there's a high school out in San Fransisco that calls themselves the Golden Rim Jobs.

I don't know. I'd probably even be more scared of a Tornado, Hurricane, and a Sandstorm made of piss. No thank you!
