When you have a standard uniform as classic and sharp as UCLA's home baby blues and gold helmet, you'd better have a good reason for wearing alternates (and all too often during their partnership with Adidas, the Bruins haven't had reason enough).
Honoring Navy SEALs and wearing a sweet black matte helmet adorned by a SEAL "frogman" logo? Yeah, that's a good reason. Via @UCLAAthletics:
The helmet will be worn during Saturday's home game vs. Washington State to honor UCLA's "long-standing relationship with the Navy SEAL community." In video form:

There are good alternate helmets and bad alternate helmets. Suffice it to say this one is near the absolute top of the "good" spectrcum.
The Bruins are 10.5-point favorites over the visiting Cougars.
