Yes, that's faux stitching on the helmets to make them look like leather helmets. Pretty cool, isn't it? The Adidas gear is a good look. The uniforms are simple and would look good as a primary uniform. But the helmet is just awesome. It's the best throwback helmet we've seen this year in college football.

The 1939 Texas A&M team went 11-0 and ascended to No. 1 after beating Texas 20-0. The Aggies then beat Tulane in the Sugar Bowl 14-13 to cap the undefeated season and national championship.
This year's A&M team is far from undefeated. After three-straight losses, the Aggies have opened up the quarterback competition.
