Alabama? NOPE. Penn State? Absolutely not. The best helmet in college football belongs to the LSU Tigers. Purple and gold look great together. Tigers are badass. Combine those colors with an iconic animal and you have a glorious helmet. The ‘LSU’ arching over the tiger head works to perfection — as does the helmet stripe going down the middle. Also, LSU’s white alternate helmet may be just as gorgeous as its primary yellow lid.
