I thought the same thing.  The above definitely looks like it "inspired" the FAU helmets.

FWIW, I like the new FAU helmet better than the owl logo.  Impossible to tell what that was from a distance.  However, they are both degrees of "bad".  One is less bad.

UF has never had the state outline on their helmet. They have had it intertwined into one of their throwback logos, but never on the helmet. They started with the traditional F that is still occasionally worn. Moved to an interlocked UF then shortly went to the cursive Gators.

La Tech's helmet is great, and  while FAU's is somewhat of a knockoff, I like it better than their OWL logo. Of course, I like NORTH TEXAS STATE with an eagle better than UNT aka MEEN GREEN, but that's just me.
