Default WHERE WERE THE STICKERS ON OHIO STATES HELMETS

COACHES/OHIO STATE BUCKEYE FANS.

i was watching osu vs navy and noticed not one player had any stickers on his helmet. That is what makes there entire uni look cool. So the quesh is. (IM NOT SURE SO THAT IS WHY IM ASKING)

1) Does each player start each season with a clean (NO STICKERS) helmet and earn them along the way ?

2) If quesh 1 is the case, how are they earned ?

3) I HOPE NOT BUT, Did they decide not to use any stickers this season ?

***Like i said im not sure how this works, this is why im asking ?


PS/ I kind of like the wings on oregons jerseys. They should keep that green and yellow look though !!!!!

The Buckeye Leaf is awarded for each good play executed by a team member. The helmets start out clean and are gradually festooned with leaves as the players perform over the course of the season.

Default From the media guide...

BUCKEYE LEAVES
A round white decal, about the size of a quarter, with a green
depiction of a buckeye leaf is applied to Ohio State football helmets
for big plays and consistency on the fi eld. This tradition started
in 1968 when football coach Woody Hayes and longtime trainer
Ernie Biggs changed the look of the Ohio State uniforms. Many
of the sports at Ohio State incorporate Buckeye Leaves into their
equipment and uniforms.

Default THANX FOR THE INFO.

thanx guy's for the clarafication. Now that im thinking about , i probably never saw an ohio state opening game. I guess your telling me next week when they play usc (I THINK) i will see a few leaves on the helmet. Those leaves alway made that uni look unique.

Have you ever seen anyone on here with an OSU team with leaves on the helmet.

1) Would the leaves be just too small to apply to a figures helmet ?

2) I guess a decal strip could be made with several leaves on the strip. When the strip is placed on the helmet, the leaves will be spaced out on the strip.

***Someone could have it here buy i've never seen a picture of it. I have a nice looking buckeye team i got from some tourney years ago. (coach was selling many team out of a bag). NO LEAVES ON THE HELMET THOUGH.
I may see if mike beal can make a strip with the leaves on it.

Thanx

Default The Naked truth (helmets)

They almost got beat by my Midshipmen (GO NAVY)...I don't think any stickers are going to be handed out to the most over rated team in College football...

You are right Dre...I looked at some photos from Saturday...no stickers...here is one photo...and one of my heros

Default HORSE, YOU MAY BE RIGHT

In the past few years when they made it to a big bowl game they did not show up. It was almost shocking that they kept losing. i dont know if it is tresel or what. When he first got to OSU they said he was the greatest thing since sliced bread. (same thing with MR. Notre dame). Im starting to wonder. We need to look out for the OLE MISS teams of the world. Ohio state almost has as much pull as the cowboys. They have many fans all over the u. s. that are crazy about them. It's amazing what happened to troy smith in his last game. The only ohio state running back i ever liked was Archie Griffin. I do like Ted Ginn jr also. He is on my team (The dolphins)

***The stickers are a major part of there indentity.Look at that picture, if i never knew osu played navy i may not have recognized them at first. Without the stripes down the middle, the helmet is bare like navy.

i remember seeing one player on OSU during the 4th qtr with something on one side of the helmet. it looked like three or four leaves, but i never saw it again. i think it was a DB or a LB.
