BYU to Debut 'Sailor Coug' Helmet for New Mexico Bowl
BYU unveiled a new "Sailor Coug" helmet it will wear for the New Mexico Bowl against SMU. Like the uniforms worn against Notre Dame, BYU will wear the all black uniforms with a royal and black helmet. The decal on the black helmets, however, will be the "Sailor Coug" logo in stead of the traditional "Y" logo. This is the first time that BYU has worn this uniform combination.
In addition, BYU will honor Mississippi State head coach Mike Leach with a pirate sticker. Leach, who recently passed away, was a BYU graduate and played for the BYU rugby team.
Since 2020, BYU has added a lot of variety to its uniform combinations. In 2021, BYU wore 12 different uniform combinations in 12 regular season games last season. The only repeat combination came against UAB in the bowl game. This season, the Cougars have worn 13 different combinations in 13 games.
