I am just going by the date stated by the person who posted it.

Juniata and TCNJ were also on the 86 schedule.

I didnt initially mention them cause their current colors being blue and gold not blue and yellow

Good to know! I looked up Juniata for that year and it was definitely not them.

I couldn't find Juniata yearbooks but I did find student newspapers.
The thing with these is that the photos are often awful but at least you get an idea of what was worn AND when.

https://archive.org/details/juniatian-vol-63-1986-1987/page/n27/mode/2up?view=theater

My guess would be blue helmet (navy) with gold or yellow "Juniata" script.

I found this for TCNJ:

https://dr.tcnj.edu/handle/2900/2015
(page 22)

My guess would be gold helmet with blue and white stripes. Blue FM.
VERY cool logo that indicates "TSC"? with the state of New Jersey between the "T" and "S".

Your guess on the mystery team being Widener was excellent! I really can't believe it's not them.
I looked at all their 80's helmets and the colors are spot on!

OK! It IS Widener. Though I think they may have only wore that helmet for 1987. Check out this color photo from the 1988 yearbook:

http://digitalwolfgram.widener.edu/digital/collection/p15139coll3/id/494/rec/16

(page 8 of the yearbook or page 1 of the "Special Events 1" section.

Blue "Widener" script on the helmets!

In the Sports section of the yearbook, you see 2 different helmet logos. The other logo is a "WU" logo, which is the 1986 logo!

Thanks for the direction to go get this one!
