Bulldog Roundup: Mississippi State announces week 1 uniforms

In the home-opener on Sept. 6, the Bulldogs will wear all-white uniforms as a tribute to the famous Snow Bowl game 25 years ago. That announcement also featured the return of the interlocking MSU logo on the side of the helmets, which made the fan base extremely happy.

The university brought back to interlocking logo – the same helmet logo Jackie Sherrill’s teams wore during the program’s most successful time period – in large part because of a strong, passionate fan base that was very loud about their desire for the logo’s return.

That grass roots movement worked because they’re passionate about Mississippi State. However, that passion may be making another appearance.

One small detail in the uniform announcement video was noticed and many social media posts weren’t happy about it. In the video, that features transfer linebacker Jalen Smith, the white bumper at the front of the helmet has the banner M logo.

As mentioned, many fans weren’t happy to see that logo return.

One post suggested it’s an older helmet and the ones we’ll see Saturday in Hattiesburg won’t have the banner logo on the bumper.

But don’t worry about looking for it. The fan base will let us know.
