College Football's Top 25 Logos in 2016

Spartan Logo #1 MichiganState_team_2014_14

1. Michigan State
Michigan State’s in-state rival may have the best college football uniforms but it is Sparty who can lay claim to the game’s best logo. The second-place finisher in Reddit’s recent logo poll, this Spartan helmet silhouette ranks supreme here because it’s everything you want in a logo: Striking but understated, strong but subtle and just all-around awesome. And after years of endlessly toying with the shade of green, Michigan State finally hit the jackpot.

that was a very dark era in the Sakimano household.. we were so despondent about the "Block S" that we barely even talked..

We could start a new Twitter crusade to pressure folks into getting the much better looking spartan helmet to replace their block S. #UpdateYourPlate2016

Please stop with this thinking. Moose uncovered the reworked logo before MSU was ready to make it public, but the reaction would've been exactly the same with or without GM's discovery. It was a great get for him--truly, but it changed nothing. If MH had unveiled that logo weeks or months later with all the bells & whistles that go along with an unveiling, the fan outcry would have been every bit as strong.

Surprisingly, I stumbled upon that cap at the mall in Ann Arbor. It was so fucking bad ass. The cap I bought was white with a green bill and this hybrid logo. Haven't ever seen it since then.

Was it skinny? You might be referring to the style of Block S that the baseball team wore for years and years.

Nope. The skinny block S was the old school block S, I love that. I remember when I worked at Grand Traverse Resort all the turf grass guys wore that cap. This was the thick block S and at the top was the Spartan helmet. It was like the block S was wearing the Spartan helmet. It was fucking bad ass.

What happened to the Japanese girl's car?

I know what's going to happen if I answer that question, and I don't want to spend the rest of my life being poked and prodded by people in white lab coats in some secret government facility.

Looking through the list on the link, I can objectively agree with a lot of it. Glad the fans went ape-shit for the first suggested helmet version. That thing sucked.

by **tGreenWay** Mon Sep 12, 2016 6:07 pm

I still can't believe so many people think the um uniform is great looking. It's like a Cub Scout uniform on steroids.

I just don't like the color yellow. Fuck that noise. If their helmets were blue and something else for the wings they would be sharp.

My FiL would tell you that any man wearing yellow was effete. I don't agree with such a grossly generalistic assessment, but I agree it's not a good color on most guys, let alone on a football uni. Plus, it's fun to tease scummers that their uniforms look like a Cub Scout gathering.

nah, man - I didn't make it to the neighborhood picnic.

First of all, it's not my kind of thing.. secondly, I consider it a form of community service by not going.. pretty sure my presence at the neighborhood picnic would bring down the property values.

Are you the EL property appraiser? If you were, you could probably bring down the property values.

I'm a lot of things but I'm not the EL property appraiser.
