Not sure I am a fan of this....
A new article has been posted on www.latechsports.com:
Louisiana Tech announced Tuesday that the Bulldogs football team will wear a new alternate helmet design for the program's Oct. 4 game against UTEP featuring the school's Bulldog logo on their traditional red helmet.

NO. Please, no.
wat
Pro: Looks like the strip was removed
Con: It's not the State-T which has been on our helmets since 1968
As I saw suggested on Twitter, maybe it would look better if the dawg was facing forward and not backward?
And let it be written, on this 29th day of July in the two-thousandth and fourteenth year of our Lord, the powers that be in the Athletics Department at Louisiana Tech University came down from the mountain with a blasphemous image for the people of BBB. The BBBers were not amused though, and thus began the great helmet logo riot of late summer 2014.
I hope the entire stadium BOOS when the team takes the field that day. NOT to boo OUR TEAM, but to BOOOO the uniform committee.
I like our Bulldog logo a lot. I don't like it on our helmets. But, I guess one time won't kill me..........maybe.
For immediate release...
RUSTON - Louisiana Tech released a new helmet logo for use during the school's "Red-Out" game against UTEP this year. A source in the athletic department stated on condition of anonymity that "while the look was not too bad, the primary reason for the change was to mess with BB&B. Those internet guys have been getting riled up about helmets every off-season without any real substance, so we decided to troll the waters a little bit."
An hour after the official release of the new design, Bulldog Barks & Bytes seems to be in a state of shock, but has most certainly swallowed the bait. Reports of laughter from the Wyly field house offices remain unconfirmed, but plausible.
I like the idea a lot and really like that they are finally trying to be creative, but I would perfer to see something silimar to this:
I'd rather the LATECH logo in the background. This just.. doesn't look right. Good for tshirts and other merch, but not the helmet. Quit messing with something that didn't need messing with to begin with.
And we're still waiting on white helmets....
Jesus, our SID makes a big deal over a decal.
