    Now, I know this is a very small matter, but since the season is over and while I was watching how LSU dominated and man-handled the Miami defense and offense, I noticed the slight change in the jersey. The stripes are cut off. When they, the jerseys, looked their finest, during the Kevin Faulk days (my hero), the stripes went all the way around the shoulder. Now, they're just half striped or something. Even the Vikings, I believe, still have shoulder stripes go all the way. What's with the change?

    I also heard/read talk of the text on the helmet changing to the new "LSU" font - you know, the one used with that new Tiger logo (my avatar), that I don't really like too much. I hope not.

    Damn, those pads on Faulk are huge.

    I like the new geaux font, and the way its been implemented, but I sure don't want it on LSU's classic helmets.

    I like the font, but not the Tiger. And to the helmet change, if it's not broke, don't fix it...

    :helmet: <--- is perfectly fine.

    Yeah....and to think, if he had pads that actually FIT him back then, he might have piled up even MORE yards! :D

    I like the old stripes, too. However, I first noticed the short stripes during the 2003 season. Is this the first time that you noticed?
