Hey Charles!

I am the one who did most of the research on this project and submitted my findings.

It took me HOURS but it was very enjoyable and challenging!

#21. I am certain that this is BYU-Idaho who was known as Ricks College when that photo was taken.
I think they only wore that design for one year.
Try this link:

I could be wrong...

#14. St. Francis (PA). White "FCS" is inside the red oval. Check out 1984 Catholic yearbook (pg 136) for that same photo:
https://cuislandora.wrlc.org/islandora/object/achc-yearbook%3A26/datastream/PDF/view

That caption is incorrect. It is not Georgetown!
The best indication is on page 38! I am pretty sure that is is "SFC"! (page 38 of PDF and not the yearbook!)

I still do not know about #16 or #23.

It sounds weird but I am certain about #13 being a minor league football team called the Seattle Cavaliers.
At the time, I wish I took better notes! I will do this for sure next helmet hunt!

I thirst for MORE! Bring it on!
(I recall that I could not find concise answers for about 8 of the helmets for helmets #25-49! If I have time this weekend I will revisit!)

Thanks, I would agree that seems very likely to be the correct identification, since that would be an in-state opponent for Dixie College. I was not seeing the helmet logo as a "viking horn" but rather as a "bull horn" or something similar. But it's probably just an ordinary viking horn logo like that which every "Vikings" team eventually uses.

That would also make sense. I was not noticing the "C" but was instead imagining a "R" or a "K". That's why I wanted to get other people looking at these!
