Helmet Stickers / Buckeye Leaves (all merged)

[Abenaki]

I'm a big fan of the scarlet leaves on the dark helmets, but the lacrosse team had scarlet leaves on gray helmets over the weekend and it looked pretty sharp. I'd be all for this as an alternate look over some of the things we've trotted out over the years.

College football’s best helmets, ranked

1. OHIO STATE

The best college football helmet of all time? The gray, scarlet, black, white and occasionally stickered-up helmet of Ohio State.

"In my opinion," 247Sports' Matt Howe wrote, "the helmet plus the stickers make it the most recognizable helmet in all of college football."

QUIETING THE COMPETITION

Even with arguably the best helmet in the college game, Ohio State isn't afraid to mix things up. In the 2017 Ohio State-Michigan game, for instance, the Buckeyes donned a predominantly metallic silver dome. That's defensive end Sam Hubbard wearing one, and shushing the crowd, during the contest.

Looks a little flatter than normal on the gray tones. Crazy looking design though and if it prevents concussions, go for it,

A CLEARER VISION, A TRUER FIT,
A SMARTER HELMET

RIDDELL TRU-FIT™ SYSTEM
Axiom’s Tru-Fit™ system uses Riddell’s Verifyt™ scanning app to capture a 3D image of an athlete’s head, cross reference that image with football’s largest head shape database, and then customize a factory-installed performance liner system of pads with thicknesses, shapes and contours to create a personalized fit for the athlete.

No fitting foams. No air adjustments.

SURROUND FLEX SYSTEM
The flexible shell concept Riddell introduced in 2014 is engineered and extended to surround the head with a combination of flex panels that interact and work together with the internal liners and face protection system to improve impact response.

TRU-VIEW™ FRONTAL PROTECTION SYSTEM
The removal of the top bar of the traditional face mask provides additional flexing, more energy managing material and a better impact response.

A panoramic elliptical face mask includes cast cage construction available in both stainless steel and titanium, and a unique shape and orientation that strengthens the face mask structure and provides a sweeping view of the field.

A factory-installed optically correct visor gives athletes a clear field view with additional eye protection.

INSITE TECHNOLOGY AND ANALYTICS
Axiom comes standard with InSite Smart helmet technology, an innovative impact sensing and reporting system that collects and transmits head impact data from the field in real-time.

Anything that helps to protect players is a good thing. Looking forward to seeing positive data from this new helmet.

Stroud believes the helmet is an upgrade in terms of safety and field vision from the previous helmet. Last season, the quarterback was wearing a Riddell Speedflex Precision.
