Since 2017, Ole Miss football has featured a patriotic rendition of its signature “Ole Miss” script logo on its helmets during its military appreciation game. In 2017 and 2019, this American flag decal was worn on the traditional navy helmet and in 2018 was worn on the white helmets that only survived one year.
This season, however, Lane Kiffin, obviously a fan of the alternate powder blue color that has swept across Ole Miss athletics, and his equipment staff opted to put this decal on the powder blue helmets paired with the new powder blue jerseys.
