Comments
Lake Erie will be playing its first season of varsity football in 2008 as a Division II independent team (the school has had a club-level team during previous years).
Southwest Baptist, previously a member of the MIAA, will compete as an independent in 2008. The team will also be using a new helmet design this year (shown above).

In 2005, OPSU used red helmets with the letters "OPSU" in white on the sides; I will need a copy of the helmet logo in order to draw this helmet and add it to the web site. Below is a photo of the 2005 OPSU helmet - the 2006 helmet was apparently similar, but lacked the white stripe (at least during the game vs. Pittsburg State).
