"If you're confused, don't worry -- you didn't miss a major rebrand for the state's flagship university, or the rise of a new minor league baseball team. But you probably did miss the unveiling of one of the most incredible helmets the 2025 college football season will see. In its Week 2 home opener against the St. Thomas-Minnesota Tommies, Idaho football will don helmets that feature the text "Fightin' Taters.""
"The helmet pays homage to the state's deep connection with the potato industry. The distinctive black lid will be paired with a matching all-black jersey and pants set, completing a look that's memorable and sleek. Idaho won't be the only team bringing uniform heat this weekend. Speaking of a school honoring its location, the SMU Mustangs are making clear what city their program represents with their uniforms."
