21. Red Chrome Helmets

Let’s be honest here, not only have the Cardinals kicked butt while wearing these helmets, they have also look extremely well. They introduced these sweet lids in the Florida State game and we all know how that game turned out.

These helmets look legit and give the Cardinals a great look on National television. I understand that they cannot wear these every game they play, but we need to start praying and hoping these make their way to Louisville’s bowl game this season.

I genuinely hope these stay around for more than just one season because they may have Lamar Jackson’s magic eternally grained into them.

If Louisville plays well in a particular helmet, why not use them every game?

People much smarter than me know the answer to that question, but that doesn’t mean we can’t ask right?
