I've loved that helmet since I was a kid in the mid-60's. Regarding the comment that the first Broyles-era helmet was a bad Alabama imitation, that is not true. Alabama's helmets had (and still have) a white stripe over the middle; Arkansas never had a white stripe during the Broyles era. Another note: Alabama actually kept two sets of helmets back then and, if they played a team that also wore red helmets, Alabama switched to a white version with red numerals and stripe. In fact, Alabama wore the white helmets when they played Arkansas in the 1962 Sugar Bowl (after the 1961 season) when they beat Arkansas 10-3 and won the National Championship thereby.

The 07' uniforms were the best, clean and simple. Also, it didn't hurt that Dmac was running all over everybody during that time. @burgerboy, I completely agree.
