OT: SEC trolls itself?

Thought this was pretty funny. I think the servers would explode if Michigan came out with an OSU or MSU "got nothin' on us" T-shirt

I find all these "rivals" shirts dumb anyways. I've never seen one that's funny or clever.

Before Hoke, the "Our Brady doesn't Suck" t shirt was a favorite. Kind of need to burn that shirt now.

Beat one I ever saw was not official apparel, but it listed Michigan's record vs Notre Dame and every Big Ten team and said "Hail To The Truth."

Whomever made the shirt screwed up. It's 3 ties, not 13. And I do remember the days of Camp Randall Stadium being our second home. We were 22-3-1 there all time until the end of the Carr years. Now we've lose 3 straight.

There was an LSU shirt that said "I would rather take a shower at Penn State than cheer for Alabama." Of course an Ohio State fan tried to rip it off, but they used the wrong form of than/then.

You obviously never saw any of the Charlie Weis shirts then. They were both clever and funny. Cruel and sophomoric yes-but definitely clever and funny.

In 1989, Miami was possibly the first ND rival to create T-shirts that said, "The Luck Stops Here." Miami won 27-10, getting revenge for ND's "Catholics vs Convicts" T-shirts and 31-30 victory the previous year. I thought both shirts were hilarious.

I agree, though, with the general sentiment. The mere existence of a shirt that says "[Insert team name] got nothin on us" pretty much says that [insert team name] is superior to the team defining themselves in terms of [insert team name].

Sorta like Sparty has done in relation to Michigan for the last 45 years or so...

Catholic vs Convicts is the best of all those shirts because it clever and edgy with some truth to it. all the shirts now a days are just lame and not a hint of clever humor.

Yes, this was the best because it was unique at the time, publically calling out a rival for their dirty behavior in such a clever way. Everybody knew what it meant with just three words.

I'm no Notre Dame fan, but they get credit for this one.

I don't think they are NIKE. They just have similar font/dumb phrasing NIKE used for the Bowl game shirts.

Yes but the schools are likely not putting these shirts out. Some company who has purchased the right to put the logo on there has made this up. Pretty sure there was mention of Nike in the original title or post of this thread.

SEC schools make t-shirts for every game (same way we have one for the whole season). When you gotta come up with something for each game year after year, you end up with these generic regurgitated phrases.

It kind of makes me sick that all these little fucking stadiums around the country copied us & expanded to a hundred thousand capacity! This is bullshit, we have to attach another entire Big House on top of the Big House to keep those fuckers out of our league!

The upper bowl seats will come equiped with telescopes & parachutes. During inclement weather the space station will slide over and become the roof.

In other news, I heard sparty stadia was going to remove 20,000 seats in order to keep up with demand. Confirm, anyone?

We did have the beat bama blue shirt, 100 years of dominance after the 2007 MSU game, and worst state ever t-shirts. I don't have a problem with it. It gets your fans amped up for a big game. If you lose, whatever.

Saban made some comment about irrespective of the bowl games this year the SEC is still the best. Wasn't it Saban and Meyer a few years back saying the bgtn wasn't very good and the bowl game results emphasized that point? Ahhh now it's different don't ya know. Yeah now they can't politic their way into the NC and the bgtn is now employing SEC tactics. I'm betting that you won't see bama play any early season games against osu, michigan, psu or sparty in the next few years.

They only people who honestly wear these shirts are blind homers (who are the worst fans anyway) or dumb bros who want to mean mug around their hometown and are itching for some low-grade trash talk and drunken brawling. These markets are pretty much immune to shame.

Personally, trying to make a "rivalry" happen is dumb. It'll happen with time and consistent contests, not because some MBA in Oregon wants to sell a couple more shirts.

Considering the result of last year's game, would it not be more appropriate for Texas A&M to sell a shirt that was more...well...."OK, we think we've figured out this how to score on Alabama thing, folks." I mean, measured steps, right?
