Helmets look best when they’re uncluttered, and a classic look is tops.  Extra points for a grey facemask, but white is OK…especially with a white helmet.

1. Michigan: Classic

2. Texas: Clean

3. Ohio State: Unique

4. Miami

5. UCLA

6. Southern Cal

7. FSU: Points off for the burgundy mask.

8. Notre Dame: Simple in an era of clutter.

9. Georgia: Still too many stickers on the back.

10. Tennessee: Nice wide stripe.

Honorable Mention: Alabama, Arkansas, Auburn, Cal, Clemson, Colorado, Iowa, LSU, Michigan State, Nebraska, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Oregon, Syracuse.

Note: Georgia Tech’s black facemasks don’t cut it…go back to grey.  The white throwback helmets from last year were sweet!
