Possible Rose Bowl helmets
Haven't seen this elsewhere so not sure 100% of its legitimacy but it does appear to be Donovan Edwards's helmet.

That’s gosh darn gorgeous
December 23rd, 2023 at 10:20 PM ^
They are but they’re just a design. I follow this account on Instagram. He makes custom/concept helmets for NFL and college teams.
December 23rd, 2023 at 8:44 PM ^
The only red I ever want to see on Michigan uniforms.
December 23rd, 2023 at 10:22 PM ^
Or green
December 23rd, 2023 at 8:45 PM ^
Pimp shit!
December 23rd, 2023 at 8:47 PM ^
Me like it! Love the details.
I want to buy one. Do they have replicas for sale?
December 23rd, 2023 at 9:11 PM ^
That would be a cool man cave ornament, even if it’s only a half-size version.
December 23rd, 2023 at 9:25 PM ^
I was thinking as the centerpiece for my dining room table. I do have a few Buckeye associates I could invite over for dinner. /s

Without the win # on the wolverine stickers and a captain's C sticker, I'm guessing this is a mock up of Khaleke Hudson's 2019 helmet.
December 23rd, 2023 at 8:58 PM ^
What about the M sweater sticker? Isn't that for All-Americans?
December 23rd, 2023 at 9:37 PM ^
Good eye! Upon further review, the helmet might be all AI or a lot of Photoshop. I believe the sticker expansion started in 2021.
December 23rd, 2023 at 9:13 PM ^
Could be but I don't remember him wearing the Axiom that Edwards does.
December 23rd, 2023 at 9:02 PM ^
Reminds me of the t-shirt I bought for Sal for Christmas:
I kid, I kid!
December 23rd, 2023 at 9:06 PM ^
Just a concept helmet I believe, but I wouldn’t hate us bringing back some retro Rose Bowl uniforms
December 23rd, 2023 at 9:09 PM ^
I’m still (unreasonably I know) pissed about the Rose Bowl patch. The ones wore last year were simple and downright beautiful. All that is needed to symbolize the Rose Bowl is just a Rose. Pair last year’s logo with this helmet and you have the best gosh darned uniform you’d ever see with your own eyes.
I expect us to wear our traditional blue tops and Maize pants as well. Just like in 98
December 24th, 2023 at 10:43 AM ^
Blue jersey, Maize pants.
No tops, or blouses, or kits.
December 23rd, 2023 at 9:11 PM ^
Just win
December 23rd, 2023 at 9:13 PM ^
That’s a beautiful sight.
December 23rd, 2023 at 9:17 PM ^
Beat Bama
Win the whole fucking thing!
obligatory…Fuck OSU, Fuck C’Ryan Day
42-27, 45-23, 30-24
Fuck off Born on 3rd bitches. Cry another year.
December 23rd, 2023 at 9:43 PM ^
117 - 74!
December 23rd, 2023 at 9:43 PM ^
117 - 74!
December 23rd, 2023 at 9:19 PM ^
I think this is just a concept helmet from a graphic artist account but I would 1000% sign off on this.
December 23rd, 2023 at 9:29 PM ^

is fire
December 24th, 2023 at 11:47 AM ^
That is sweet, I would buy one
December 23rd, 2023 at 9:34 PM ^
Are replicas available to purchase? I could use another for my office.
December 23rd, 2023 at 9:38 PM ^
Am I the only one who thinks that's fucking terrible, and a horrid render?
We have the MOST ICONIC HELMETS IN FOOTBALL.
Don't fuck with them.
December 23rd, 2023 at 9:51 PM ^
i'd get rid of the BCS type of helmet sticker on the back, but the roses are very cool.
December 23rd, 2023 at 9:46 PM ^
that's even better than Ernie McCraken's bowling ball
December 23rd, 2023 at 9:57 PM ^
Wondering if Michigan will do a shoulder pad logo like they used to do for years with the Rose Bowl.
Guessing not as I haven’t seen anything like that for any team in years, but Michigan is very much a team that will do something “because tradition.”
December 23rd, 2023 at 10:07 PM ^
I saw the equipment truck while driving back to Michigan today. Can't wait to see those beauties on the field.
December 23rd, 2023 at 10:54 PM ^
Any red on the front will look like Bama blood.
December 23rd, 2023 at 11:24 PM ^
Yeah, no, just no.
December 24th, 2023 at 12:05 AM ^
Love the designs and kudos to the designer, hard to tell these are mockups. There's a backward 7 in the bottom right of the helmet. Hard to see because of one of the wolverine decals is under it.
There's a few other large problems, some have already been covered, like captain C (on Edwards helmet), The Sweater represents All-American, missing win numbers along with missing the following: Varsity Letterman Jacket, The Game, Equality, Title IX, CFP, Area Code (248), Fiesta Bowl, Orange Bowl, Rampage, George Jewett, Record, EUTM, BIG Championship Trophy Football, Guardians of Victory.

oh man, those are nice. my kids make fun of my old high-top cleats that are basically identical to those except for color - black nike sharks with a white swoosh - but they'd love these rose bowl cleats.
December 24th, 2023 at 6:41 AM ^
To much
December 24th, 2023 at 7:54 AM ^
Got a little nervous reading the thread title, as this isn't the helmet to fuck with...ever. But...got to say these look pretty sweet.
December 25th, 2023 at 8:14 AM ^
Nah.
Too much of a "we're just happy to be here" feel.
UM did that last season.
This year the goal isn't to stop at the Rose.
