Best ESPN College GameDay Signs from Illinois (2/6/10)

February 7, 2010

ESPN College GameDay was live from Champaign, Illinois yesterday at Assembly Hall, the site of the showdown between Illinois and #5 Michigan State.  The crowd was pretty good and looked like a complete sea of orange, but the attendance of 4,143 was nearly doubled by Kansas State from last week with 8,159 in the stands (a College GameDay record).  That record won’t likely last much longer because Kentucky hosts GameDay this week and tickets sold out fast.  I definitely have to give credit to the student section, “The Orange Krush”, for some of their choreographed moves…you can get a glimpse in the video at the end of this article.

Digger went with the yellow tie/highlighter combo for all the fashion nerds out there.  The Illinois student who shot the half-court shot for a scholarship missed pretty bad, but not nearly as bad as the K-State student missed last week.  That makes twelve straight shows with a miss.  On to the signs!

First up, the Michigan State humor:

"Michigan State is a BAD basketball team"

Possibly my favorite sign of the day:

"Izzo likes Nickelback"

Here is a solid group of four different signs.  The first says “Bieber, let’s win one time”.  I have absolutely no clue if there is a hidden meaning behind this that I don’t know about, but I looked it up and Justin Bieber is a Canadian singer, and he released a song named “One Time”.  The next sign is also one of my favorite’s of the day:  “Kalin is a girl’s name” (directed towards MSU senior guard Kalin Lucas).  I’m not sure I really get the third sign: “Get hungry for some Billy Cole-slaw”, other than Bill Cole being a forward on the Illini team.  The last sign is also pretty good: “E.S.P.N. – Every Spartan Picks his Nose”.

This guy woke up at Assembly Hall not knowing where he was or how he got there (also notice Jay Bilas getting some love with the “Jay Bilas is my hero” sign!).  By the look on the guy’s face I don’t think this was a joke…I truly believe he had no clue where he was at.

"Where am I?"

Speaking of Jay Bilas, this guy was impressed with how he looked yesterday.  I could make a variety of jokes right now, but I’ll refrain:

"Lookin' Good Jay"

The color green is apparently Bruce Weber’s kryptonite:

"Bruce Weber + Green = Angry Bruce! You wouldn't like it when he's angry!"

Is anyone out there hiring?  My good friend here seems to have quit his job (also notice the “Muck Fichigan” shirt to the right):

"Quit my job 2 be on ESPN and witness Sparty get smashed"

There was a future great in the crowd:

"Future great"

Speaking of future greats, vote for Jeff Bober for President…in 18 years:

"Jeff Bober for President - 2028"

I know that State Farm sponsors the basketball version of College GameDay, but there were at least ten signs that were State Farm related, and they weren’t even that funny (and they all pretty much said the same thing).  Here is one example of the State Farm signs (if you’ve seen one, you’ve seen them all):

"Like a good neighbor, we're gonna Krush you"

Another State Farm sign (special thanks to IllinoisLoyalty.com…be sure to check them out for more pictures from GameDay):

"Better call your State Farm agent cuz...you've been KRUSHED!"

There were multiple mentions of Michigan State feeling some “Paign” yesterday:

"E.S.P.N. - Every Spartan is in for Paignful night"

"E.S.P.N. - Expect Some Paign Tonight"

I have no clue why Lil’ Wayne cares about Illinois basketball, but he must be a big fan:

"Lil' Wayne says Make it Rain"

You can’t go to Illinois and not represent for Abraham Lincoln…hmm, Lincoln was actually born in Kentucky, could we see a Lincoln sign two weeks in a row?

Last but not least, Tom Izzo, Hugh Hefner, and Bobby Knight all walk into a bar (thanks again to IllinoisLoyalty.com)…

That’s all for the signs from this week.  Here is Digger’s lovely yellow tie/highlighter combo:

We had a Jenn Brown sighting on College GameDay and she is sporting a new hairstyle…

Here is a great video with a little more of the action from yesterday:

Be sure to vote in the poll below for your favorite sign.  At the end of the season we will have a tournament of all the best signs.  If you haven’t voted for last week you can do so HERE.  As of right now “Sherron – put some pants on, we find it a little weird we have to ask twice and “KU – disappointing the state of Kansas since 1865 are in the lead.

Next week College GameDay will be in Lexington, Kentucky for Kentucky vs. Tennessee, and we will be back with all the signs!  If you’re going to be there let us know!

Friday Night Link Roundup – Alabama & Texas BCS Edition

January 15, 2010

We’ve gotten several links sent in by readers in the last week about the two teams that played in the BCS Championship game, Alabama and Texas.  We’re posting the last links remaining in this BCS Championship edition…enjoy!

Let’s start off with the showdown between the University of Alabama cheerleaders and the University of Texas cheerleaders [COED Magazine]

Want more Texas and Bama girls?  Let’s open up the competition to both cheerleaders and students this time: [Holy Taco]

Like the Alabama girls more, huh?  Well here is a site just for you: [Gunaxin]

I wonder if this UT fan found someone to take him up on his offer [Deadspin]

Did you see the fan dressed up like a wrestler that rushed the field at the Rose Bowl? [Dr. Saturday]

This Texas fan was completely sober before the game…trust me [Jersey Chaser]

Awesome mosaic picture of the BCS trophy, made up of over 1000 TV screen caps [TV Tan Line]

Look what happens when you bet against Alabama [Deadspin]

Last but not least, a reader sent in a Jenn Brown picture from the Alabama locker room, and we haven’t posted much of Jenn lately so we felt an obligation to do so!

If you see a fan-related article, send us the link to info@thatfan.com!

Be A Fan and Raise Money for Charity!

January 2, 2010

Since I started this site a few months ago I’ve been brainstorming on a way to get the site more exposure in a fun and unique way.  The conclusion of how I plan to do this serves three purposes:

1) Get more exposure for the site in order to bring more visitors

2) Allows fans to participate on the site by showing their support for their favorite team and That Fan

3) Raise money for Make-A-Wish Foundation (more on this below)

What I’m asking for readers and supporters to do, is take a picture of them holding a sign that says “I am That Fan” in their team colors.  As an added bonus, take the pictures under the following conditions:

1) At the site of your favorite team with the stadium/arena/field, etc. in the background

2) With a famous athletes/coaches/celebrities/cheerleaders/mascots, etc.

3) At various U.S. and/or world landmarks, such as the Statue of Liberty, the Eiffel Tower, Great Wall of China, etc.

There can be as many or as few people in the picture as you wish, and the sign can be as big or as small as you wish (as long as you can read the writing).  You are encouraged to be decked out in your team’s colors, and you are allowed to put other decorations and writing on the sign.

How will this help raise money for Make-A-Wish you ask?  That Fan will be donating money for every picture we post on the site (trust me, if you follow the directions above, your picture WILL get posted).  I am going to start it off at $1.00 per picture posted, but that amount may change over time.  Remember, this is money out of our pocket we are donating, you don’t have to donate a thing!  Maybe a company out there would like to take the opportunity to match any donation?

I will take all of the money we donate, and with your help, pick a child to grant a wish along with the Make-A-Wish Foundation.  Many of these young kids’ are huge sports fans, and sometimes their wishes are to meet their favorite athletes from the favorite teams, and that is the specific type of wish we will work to help grant.

I will make some sort of section on the sidebar that keeps a running track of money That Fan has raised/donated to date for all to see, and there will be other ways to help raise money for this cause that I will announce over the coming weeks.  For now, all you need to worry about is taking a picture and sending it in, and That Fan will do the rest!

There aren’t many other ways as easy as this to have some fun supporting your favorite team and raise money for a good cause at the same time, so we hope you take advantage of it.  Here are the first few pictures so that you can see some examples.

The first picture is one I was lucky enough to get from none other than Jenn Brown herself, along with her ESPNU Road Trip co-host, Drubner.  They took the picture from the field of the Georgia Dome after this year’s SEC Championship, and no, it is not photo-shopped!

The next picture comes from outside of Autzen Stadium in Oregon (special thanks to Jeremy!):

The last example comes from Brutus the Buckeye!

Three pictures equals our first $3.00 being donated to Make-A-Wish…it is that easy!  If you want any guidance or ideas for pictures, please let us know.

Are you That Fan?  Prove it!!

2009 College Football Attendance – Week 14

December 8, 2009

Here are the top 5 stadium attendance figures from college football this past weekend (home team listed first):

1)  USC vs. Arizona:  L, 21-17  (83,753)

2)  Texas vs. Nebraska:  W, 13-12  (76,211)

3)  Florida vs. Alabama:  L, 32-13  (75,514)

4)  Pittsburgh vs. Cincinnati:  L, 45-44  (63,387)

5)  Washington vs. California:  W, 42-10  (62,334)

If I missed something let me know.  This week was probably the worst attendance week of the year as far as the top five largest crowds go, as there weren’t many games on the schedule due to it being so late in the year (although I would have loved to have had tickets to any of these football games).  A couple notes on these games:  1) The Texas/Nebraska game was at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington rather than in Austin; 2) the Florida/Alabama game was in the Georgia Dome in Atlanta rather than in Gainesville.  Over the coming weeks I’ll do some attendance analysis from the regular season (biggest crowd of the season, best overall attendance, etc.), and also give an update on the bowl game attendance.

Since all the home teams basically put up a poor performance except for Washington (and they wouldn’t even be up here if there wasn’t so few games on the schedule), I’m not giving love to any of these teams.  What I will do is inform everyone of an opportunity to see Jenn Brown on ESPN U tomorrow night @ 7pm ET (can’t forget about my man Drubner!).  If you aren’t a fan of Jenn Brown I apologize for all the pub I’ve given her lately, but the top two search queries that have led people to my site the past couple weeks are “Jenn Brown” and “Jenn Brown ESPN”, so I’ve got to keep feeding my visitors!  If the show is as cool as the videos I posted yesterday, we are in for a good treat!

First up, if you want an extra dose or two of Jenn Brown, check out these videos from her visiting with Alabama and Florida this week with her co-host Drubner.  ESPN Road Trip is a pretty cool thing, and something I hope sticks around every year.  Did I mention that Jenn Brown was in these videos?  [Jenn Brown video #1] [Jenn Brown video #2]

Vote on the best cheerleaders of the 2010 BCS bowl teams.  Texas wins in my book! [COED Magazine]

More fun with the Oregon/Oregon State rivalry, AKA the Civil War [The Register Guard]

UC fans trying to do whatever they can to keep Brian Kelly from heading to Notre Dame [Bearcat Tailgater]

It’s not fan related, but I had to pass along the latest Carrie Underwood bikini pictures [Hollywood Tuna]

South Carolina Gamecock mascot rejects poor young Clemson fan. [YouTube]

Sports Illustrated’s Cheerleader of the Week from Wake Forest [SI.com]

Alabama Cheerleaders celebrate SEC championship with a chest bump [Busted Coverage]

Last but not least, you MUST check out this video of Utah State fans at a recent basketball game with a great show of crowd support with this cheer.  If anyone out there is a Utah State fan, shoot me an email, I want to do an article on this chant:

Best ESPN College GameDay Signs (12/5/09)

December 5, 2009

Editor’s note:  Click HERE to vote for your favorite College GameDay from below. Please check back each week (and go through our archives) for the best selection of GameDay signs on the web.  Follow us on Twitter (@ThatFan) to get updates!

This week’s edition of ESPN College GameDay was in Atlanta for the SEC Championship game between #1 Florida and #2 Alabama (some are already calling it the National Championship game). I didn’t know what to expect from the crowd this week for a few reasons. First, the game is in Atlanta which isn’t the hometown of either of these teams, and isn’t really a college town. Second, the temperature was in the thirties, which will always hurt a crowd. However, despite my worries, the crowd came through in a big way. It wasn’t the biggest crowd of the year but there might have been more hilarious signs this week than any other week this year.

A few observations before we get to the signs: 1) The guest picker was Tennessee head coach Lane Kiffin, who picked the Crimson Tide to roll. 2) Jenn Brown was back thankfully…more on her below. 3) The Washington State flags made it once again, which makes this the 90th straight broadcast they have been present. This time there were actually four flags rather than the usual two. You can find more details on this tradition HERE.

2 of the 4 Washington State flags at College GameDay

2 of the 4 Washington State flags at College GameDay

On to the best signs of the day, the real reason you are here.  First up, Bama fans trash talking the Gators:

"Gators can't swim in a Crimson Tide"

"Gators can't swim in a Crimson Tide"

Alabama fans proving they can do basic math, something that they believe Florida fans can not do.  The real question, is who is greater, Mark Ingram or Tim Tebow?

"22 > 15.  Even Gators can do math"

"22 > 15. Even Gators can do math"

"Ingram > Tebow.  Math so easy a Gator can do it!"

"Ingram > Tebow. Math so easy a Gator can do it!"

After Carlos Dunlap got arrested for a DUI this week I knew there would be a plethora of signs from Bama fans.  I was right.

"Dunlap drive me home tonight"

"Dunlap drive me home tonight"

"D.U.I. - Don't worry, Urban is in charge!"

"D.U.I. - Don't worry, Urban is in charge!"

"It's 3 AM.  Do you know where your defensive end is?"

"It's 3 AM. Do you know where your defensive end is?"

"Hey Carlos, will you be our DD?"

"Hey Carlos, will you be our DD?"

Brandon “Watch your Eyes” Spikes is still getting a tough time from fans.  Check out this trifecta (couldn’t catch what the N said on the ESPN sign said)!

\"Brandon Spikes eye-gouged my other sign" & "E.S.P.N. - Every time Spikes plays you [fill in the blank]" & "Spikes proof"

"Brandon Spikes eye-gouged my other sign" "Spikes proof"

If Michael Jordan has the Sports Illustrated cover record then Tim Tebow has the GameDay sign record.  First we’ll show the Alabama versions.  Not only is this sign the early favorite to win Best GameDay Sign of the Week, but it gives us a chance to slip in a glimpse of Jenn Brown (more of her below).  In case you weren’t already aware, Tebow spent his spring break last year circumcising impoverished children.

"Tebow snipped a bit too much off my baby"

"Tebow snipped a bit too much off my baby"

Another instant classic that has a good chance at winning Best GameDay Sign of the Week:

"Meyer & Tebow share a snuggie!"

"Meyer & Tebow share a snuggie!"

"Tebow shaves his legs!"

"Tebow shaves his legs!"

It’s been a couple weeks since we’ve seen a Twilight reference on a sign.  I was starting to get worried.

"Tim Tebow plays for Team Edward"

"Tim Tebow plays for Team Edward"

Gary Danielson from CBS and Tim Tebow?  I learn something new every day…

"Bromance"

"Bromance"

"Tebow! If you think that Kentucky hit hard, meet Rolando"

"Tebow! If you think that Kentucky hit hard, meet Rolando"

Now let’s move over to the Tebow signs from the Gator fans, including the usual Kanye West humor:

"Mark Ingram, Ima let you finish but Tim Tebow is the best Heisman Candidate of all time"

"Mark Ingram, Imma let you finish but...Tim Tebow is the best Heisman Candidate of all time!"

The GameDay guys said that the day after Tebow wears a bible verse on his eyeblack, it is the most searched term on Google.  Sounds like the trend is growing:

"Even God wears eyeblacks now"

"Even God wears eyeblacks now"

As I’ve said in the past, some of my favorite signs are the ones that deal with the GameDay crew.  This week the GameDay crew signs were lacking (where were the Corso signs??), but Kirk did get some love:

"Kirk keep me warm"

"Kirk keep me warm"

These next couple signs weren’t related to Florida or Alabama, but they were creative so I had to post them:

"Hey Josh, I'm here & ur not!"

"Hey Josh, I'm here & ur not!"

There is a sign in this picture, I promise.  Please stop focusing on Jenn Brown (if you can) and you’ll find it.  Hey signholder, That Fan noticed…nice sign!

"E.S.P.N. - Epic sign! Please notice!"

"E.S.P.N. - Epic sign! Please notice!"

Speaking of Jenn Brown, there weren’t too many good pro-Florida signs this week, but Florida alumnus Jenn Brown more than makes up for it.  Looking at the traffic stats from my site from the last 24 hours, people have been Googling Jenn like crazy.  Always looking out for my readers, I give you more of the girl that made us all forget about Erin Andrews.  By the way, did you vote in my Jenn Brown vs. Erin Andrews poll yet?

Interviewing Saban

On the GameDay set

A couple more from Alabama fans:

"Forrest Gump played 4 Alabama"

"Forrest Gump played 4 Alabama"

"Roll Tide" (Toilet paper roll and a box of tide)

"Roll Tide" (Toilet paper roll and a box of tide)

We didn’t have any Mangino weight humor, but we sure had Charlie Weis weight humor.

"Charlie Weis at my cat"

"Charlie Weis at my cat"

A repeat of the previous sign, but it looks like Charlie ate your spelling skills as well (WEIS not WIES):

"Charlie Wies at my cat"

"Charlie Wies at my cat"

So let me get this right, Charlie ate two cats, one bowl, and two sets of spelling skills?

"Charlie Wies ate his bowl"

"Charlie Wies ate his bowl"

A Georgia fan made his way out to make fun of the hometown Yellow Jackets:

"GT: Keep ur IQs, cuz UGA has TNA"

"GT: Keep ur IQs, cuz UGA has TNA"

Speaking of Georgia, we have an APB out for UGA VII’s killer:

"Mike Vick killed UGA VII"

"Mike Vick killed UGA VII"

"Saban killed UGA VII"

"Saban killed UGA VII"

What is going on with all of these dog haters?  Classic shot with Lane in the picture!

"Lane Kiffin hates puppies"

"Lane Kiffin hates puppies"

Lastly, on to Corso’s headgear video.  The last few weeks Lee has pulled a switcheroo on us, but this week once he put on Big Al’s costume, he never turned back.  Corso picks the Crimson Tide over the Gators!

That’s all the signs for this week, be sure to check back in the next couple days for the poll to vote for your favorite sign of the week. I’ll put together a survey at the end of the year for people to select the best sign of the year. If you didn’t vote for last week’s sign yet, you can do so HERE.  If one of these signs is yours, send us an email to info@thatfan.com and let me know.

That Fan Website Update

November 22, 2009

Fellow fans, you may or may not have noticed but I moved the site from being hosted at Wordpress, to being hosted at Godaddy (so you will no longer see Wordpress on any of the URLs, rather it will be ThatFan.com).  I have redirected each of the pages from the old site to this site (including any search engine results) so you won’t notice any difference.

One downfall is that I lost my hit counts from the old site which were right around 50,000 hits…not bad for a months worth of blogging (feel free to help me make up for lost time by visiting often and sharing with your friends so I can get my count back up!).

A new feature that you may see are Social links at the bottom of each post that will allow you to share a post via email, Facebook, Twitter, Digg, etc.  Please use these and use them often so I can keep growing the site!

There are many unique plans I have for this site that I think all of you will love, but they will take time so be patient with me.  One of the best ways readers can help the site become better is to contribute to the content.  There are several ways you can contribute:

1) Post comments and interact with each other

2) Send pictures for me to post (funny signs, funny shirts, crazy fans, sexy female sports fans, etc.)

3) A trend I’d like to see going is having people send me pictures of them at sporting events, at U.S./world landmarks, with athletes, etc., holding a sign that says “I am That Fan”.  So this week when you are making your sign for you football or basketball games, write that on the back and send me a picture of you holding it at the game!

4) Send me fan-related links to share with everyone

5) Open to writing articles?  I’m willing to allow guest posts so if you have a clever idea about an article for the site, let me know and I’ll more than likely post it.  Want to write a post but don’t know what to write about?  Ask me for an idea, I’ve got hundreds of post ideas.

6) Let me know what you want more of and less of on the site.  The last thing I want this site to be is 100% about college football and College GameDay, but that is what is driving the traffic right now so I must help those in need!

My goal is to make this a site that everyone visits frequently, but I am only as good as my readers expectations, so thank you for reading!  As a special thanks to everyone, I give you a picture of the lovely Jenn Brown (quite a bit of my traffic comes from people Googling her, so I have to give her thanks as well!):

Reader Submissions (Nike Shocker/FSU/Jenn Brown)

November 3, 2009

Reader Submissions is something I’d  like to do a few times a week where I share pictures that blog readers have sent in for me to share with everyone.  I am not biased so if you have a picture that you think is cool, chances are I will as well, and then I’ll post it.  What am I looking for?  Pictures of crazy fans, sexy female sports fans, funny shirts, funny signs, cheerleaders, etc.  What are you waiting for?  Send pictures to:  info@thatfan.com

Our first picture of the day comes from Jeremy in Oregon, who just so happens to be the same fan I pointed out that was throwing the shocker behind Lee Corso as he hopped on the motorcycle at Gameday (click here for the video).  Jeremy found That Fan and was also kind enough to send this beauty of a Kodak moment of him throwing the shocker up with Nike founder Phil Knight.  I prefer to call this one the Nike Shocker…Great work Jeremy!

NikeShocker

The Shocker: Just Do It!

The next picture comes from Danny in Cincinnati, and is his version of this week’s “Our Cheerleaders are Hotter”.  He apparently is a Florida State fan, and although they may be having some issues with their head coach, they don’t look to be having any issues with their cheerleaders.

FSUCheer

Our Cheerleaders are Hotter - FSU Style

The last picture of the day comes from Nate in Louisville, and is actually a picture I’ve been meaning to get around to posting anyway, so a big thanks to Nate for reminding me.  What would a day at That Fan be like without some Jenn Brown?  Dull.  Very dull.  With no further delay, I give you Jenn Brown’s Halloween costume from this year:

ESPN College Gameday Signs (10/31/09)

November 1, 2009

**Editor’s note:  getting crazy traffic right now thanks to the link on SI.com.  Be sure to bookmark That Fan, we do a College Gameday sign review every week!  You can also follow us on Twitter (@ThatFan) which will update you when new articles are posted.**  Voting for the best sign from this week can be done HERE.

This week’s edition of ESPN College Gameday was in Oregon for the USC/Oregon game, and the crowd definitely did not disappoint.  The show started at 7am PT and there might have been more fans at that time than any other broadcast this year; amazing considering it was still dark outside.  The only bad thing about having such a large crowd was that there were a ton of signs that couldn’t really be viewed well on TV because they were so far back in the crowd.

A few observations from this week:  1)  Again, I saw two Washington State flags (one maroon, one white) in the crowd.  Big shot out to their fans because I haven’t seen one episode this year where there weren’t two WSU flags, and I haven’t seen any other schools with that kind of support.  2)  Phil Knight, CEO of Nike and big Oregon booster was the guest picker, and surprise surprise, he picked the Ducks.  3)  Jenn Brown was back and she is still drop dead gorgeous (more on this later).  4)  No one won this week’s That Fan contest, so we will try again next week.  5)  I couldn’t get a good shot of it, but there was a sign advertising the website www.BCSbusters.com.  Figured I’d help them get the word out.  Now onto the signs I could get (it was still dark out for the first hour of the show, so some of the pictures won’t be great quality):

First I want to provide a couple that have some sayings made popular by my favorite NFL wide receiver, Chad Ochocinco.  Chad was an Oregon State Beaver so it’s good to see him getting some love from the Oregon crowd:

ChildPlease

"Child Please"

KissTheBaby

"Kiss The Baby"

Lee Corso’s illegitimate son made the trip to Eugene:

CorsoFather

"Lee Corso Is My Father"

I take back what I said earlier about the Oregon crowd showing Oregon State love:

Corvallis

"Gameday Visits: Eugene - 4, Corvallis - 0"

This next sign offers a spin on Charles Barkley’s TV show with Hank Haney, The Haney Project:

Haney

"Not even The Haney Project can save this Barkley's game!"

It wouldn’t be Oregon with out references to getting “Ducked Up”"

DuckedUp

"Mom, I'm ducked up on quack"

DuckedUp2

"USC Get Ducked Up!!"

What are the odds this guy was drunk?:

Scotch

"I Love Scotch"

I’m not sure who Superman is on this sign but my guess is either Dwight Howard or Desmond Howard (in case you have no clue what this sign means, its a play on the Soulja Boy song):

Superman

"Superman that O"

This one isn’t a sign and you could barely see it, but apparently someone be-headed a Trojan and brought the bloody head on a stake:

TrojanHead

Not a sign, but a bloddy Trojan head on a stick

This one needs no introduction:

DoUSCebag

"doUSCebag"

Not sure of the point, but if you really want to do it then be my guest:

PeeOnUSC

"We'll pee on USC"

Matt Barkley, you should be ashamed of yourself!:

Twilight

"Matt Barkley reads Twilight"

What would a College Gameday held at a stadium playing against USC be without some good-natured Trojan/condom humor?:

Holloweeners

"Trojans R Just Holloweeners"

This next one references Oregon’s Ed Dickson:

Dickson

"Trojans can't handle our DICKson"

LeakyDefense

"Trojans have leaky defense"

WetDucks

"E.S.P.N. - Wet Ducks Prefer Magnums"

ThrowAway

"Trojans: We use them once then throw them away!"

TrojansBreak

"Trojans break at Autzen"

Probably my personal favorite for funniest sign of the week:

TrojansIneffective

"Warning: Trojans ineffective against the spread of-fense...and crabs!"

That’s all for the signs this week.  Be sure to check back today or tomorrow for the poll to vote for your favorite sign of the week.  I’ll put together a survey at the end of the year for people to select the  best sign of the year.  If you didn’t vote for last week’s sign yet, you can do so HERE.

Did anyone see when Oregon head coach Chip Kelly was walking through the crowd with the duck mascot head on?  When he took it off, the guy next to him tried to kiss him.  Oregon fans, if you know this guy, please let him know this wasn’t what Chad Ochocinco meant by “Kiss the Baby”:

Kiss

Quality football coaches are great, but not THAT great...

Jenn Brown did make an appearance on College Gameday this week.  She did a great segment that talks about how Matt Barkley handles crowd noise at away games (which I did a similar feature on).  Click HERE to see her segment.  Here are a few pictures of her enjoying her time at the stadium:

JBOU

Pre-game on the field

JBPC

Interviewing USC head coach Pete Carroll

JBOU2

Lastly, here is the video of Lee Corso picking Oregon to beat USC.  Pay special attention to the guy on his right as he gets onto the motorcycle…he is emphatically excited about throwing the shocker symbol.
