I’ve seen some cool PM stuff with a small, tasteful NC logo on the left chest. I’ll get some of that, Johnnie-O too. They did some cool Braves stuff too. You’re dead on about Nike. Plus I don’t want to put more money in their pockets.

Lol. Look, great year for you guys. Enjoy it. But Bama lost its top 2 wr’s in the post season play. That was the difference between game one and game 2. Let’s not act like you guys went out and dominated everyone on both sides of the ball with a hard schedule.


Wrong. Georgia looked like the best team the entire regular season and absolutely dominated the same teams that Bama barely beat or almost lost to. The SEC championship showed us something that didn’t align with what we saw all year. Georgia then went on to blowout #2 Michigan and beat Bama by 15 points with a walk on QB and freshman receivers. What that says is that the SEC championship was a fluke. Also, if you insist on the idea that Bama only lost because of two WRs being out, then they should have had better depth than Georgia. If they were the better team, they’d have better depth.

When you look at Bama's performance throughout the 2021 season (especially in light of common opponents with UGA), while I wouldn't call the SECCG a fluke, it is absolutely the outlier. This is eminently true about Georgia's defensive performance, too.

Those Victory Lane shirts suck though that's too bad for you guys. I had a really hard time finding AU stuff I liked after we won, all too gaudy.

I mean, 41 years of accumulated interest is nothing to sneeze at.

Sounds like Bama should’ve prepped their backups better. Shame.



You can only prep so many, if you try to prep every one, then you prep none.

It was just not the WR, Bama was down its 2nd and 3rd RB along with several in the defensive backfield.


Congrats to UGA, first NC since 1980.

That UGA fans would snatch up gear commemorating our first NC in 41 years is the least shocking development. If you'll go back and reread what I wrote in the OP, I was more surprised that 2020 Bama NC stuff was the top-selling of all time, than anything. One would think that one of their earlier championships might've been a better seller.


I'm just in a bad place these days with all this stuff.

I'm coming from a place where I think caring about sports the way we do these days is ridiculous, and I used to LOVE college sports (most sports actually)... and politics and all the other bs wasn't really what changed me. Maybe just getting older is what did it.

I dislike UGA as much as anyone here I can assure you, but if you don't realize they are going to win several more titles in the coming years you're deluding yourself.

I don't think I bought any merch for an LSU title. I have a few newspapers is all.

Imagine saving $5 a month for 41 years. You have a lot of money to spend when the ship comes in.

Actually my thoughts as a whole, too. You get a shirt/hat with a SECCG or NCG logo and stuff on it it looks crowded and gaudy. After a year or so it looks outdated. After 4-5 years it begins to look sad.

If I am going to wear stuff I prefer it to be regular team stuff. A hat or T-shirt with a simple logo and no dates. Just me, though.

Oh, I don't care about that. Fandom for college sports seems completely juvenile to me now. This board is horrible. I only come here because I'm that bored, and I like to get my feathers ruffled by the bullshite.

Seriously? Do you really want us to go down the list of our starters that was injured and could not play or was not close to full speed?

Darn straight. And even though you meant it is a backhanded compliment we will take it because we are the champions this year.

I get that. And make no mistake about it. If Auburn had won it this year we would feel the same.

As an older guy I have found that it comes and goes. When Auburn returns (and they will) the interest will return, too. Politics, NIL, Transfer Portal does seem to be taking some of my interest out of it, though.

Just a suggestion? Go to ebay and get you a National Championship game program LSU 2019 is going for $7.50-$10.00....something like that. They don't take up much room and it is an easy reminder of who all played etc. I would pick up two if I were you and frame one.

Ebay

Closer to $11.00 with shipping.
