I'll be cheering on the Badgers and the Big Ten in the Rose Bowl, but take a look at Oregon's helmets for the game. Major swag.

What do you think?

The Dude is gonna be PISSED when he finds out someone put a facemask on his bowling ball

If Denard Robinson isn't careful with spooning all that food into his mouth, he's going to end up lookin' like Whoopi Goldberg

Oregon WR's are gonna be pissed when they find out that somebody chromed their facemasks for a sunny day in Pasadena.

I'm usually a huge supporter of Oregon's uniforms and helmets. I guess I just have always liked the futuristic looks of the them.

This, on the other hand, is taking it a bit too the the extreme. Not a fan, and I think M Man is right when the sun hits those babys, they aren't going to be able to see a thing.

I guess anything is good that removes the focus of being 2-6 in the last 8 bowl games helps.

Interesting. They look very reflective. I'm sure they cleared the design with the NCAA, but if the sun plays havoc with anyone's vision look for Bielema to file a complaint with the officials. Could be kind of amusing.

I love to root for the Big Ten, but I just can't bring myself to root for anything Belima. The Ozone put out a list of possible coaches to replace Tressel and they had the Wisc coach as a good choice. Never, no way, no how would this wipe ever be a good choice in Columbus. You know he will raise a stink about these helmets...Go Ducks!!

That is not "swag." That is obnoxious.

Wisconsin could just drop their stylish '57-'66 headgear on the Ducks:

I like it, I have liked pretty much everything Oregon has worn, those Wisconsin helmets are also pretty sweet.

I like the Oregon Helmets, whether or not they'll match with which ever piece or pooh uniform they decide to wear is another thing. Oregon's uniforms in the 2010 Rose Bowl vs OSU were hideous.

Man, tough crowd. I'm usually a fan of the more traditional aspects of college football, but I think these are incredible. My first thought was that they might impact play, but I do think it's cool that Oregon keeps pushing the envelope with design.

Gordon Gee's signature is on my diploma. I'm proud of that. Class of 2008

Oregon's priority list:

1) Bombard as many eyes with as many colors, lights and shiny things as possible.

2) ?

that's funny- poop

I'll definitely like it when Oregon goes with the liquid clothing for its female cheerleaders.

Is it me, or does Chip Kelly look like a Duck, when he talks out of the side of his mouth?

Here are Wisky's: http://www.uwbadgers.com/view.gal?id=109392

How in the hell are the WR's or DB's going to see anything? The advantage goes to Wisky WR's...no one else out there can see!

No matter how sh*tty the tour is, it's always tough to leave.

Phil Knight just has way too much money, so much that he just doesn't know what to spend all of it on. Since he isn't likey to reduce the price of his grossly overpriced shoes; if he wants to help Oregon, maybe he should just donate more $$$ to some of the academic departments of the school. I'm sure the University of Oregon would be more than happy to name another building after him.

I hate to pull a Denny, but can we stop using "swag" to describe anything for the rest of time?

I think the helmets are sweet. Having them shine in the sun will be something to see in HD. Biliemia is going to bitch a blue streak for sure. What are the rest of the uni's going to look like? For them to look right they are going to need to incorporate gray threw out. It will be intereting to see.
