Here's Your Sign... College Gameday edition, Week 12

Whew.... what a quick season! We are heading into week 13 this weekend and it still feels like we just finished week 3! It doesn't seem like we should be coming up on our last regular season game! So.... one more week of college gameday signs to come after today!
Starting off, I would like to say that the setting is Arizona, and we saw at least 2 Roll Tide signs and then, I spotted this fun sign!
It says SEC OOC (out of conference) Schedules... so easy a caveman can do it! They obviously feel that the SEC didn't challenge itself this year with the few games they played against opponents not in their conference. I would disagree with at least one of these opponents, Virginia Tech Played Alabama early in the season and they truly are a tough team, I have seen them in person!
Fun cut down using current events: I'd rather have the swine flu than go to Oregon!
Oregon's Head Coach... theUgly Duckling!
Say No to Quack was everywhere!
There were lots of signs that had reference to Nintendo's Duck Hunt Game!
With Thanksgiving around the corner, we see several fun thanksgiving signs!
This week.... Spanksgiving!
Have a safe and happy Thanksgiving!

Here's your sign...College Gameday edition, Week 12

No.... I promise I haven't quit. Not that there are many people out there reading this anyway! I don't know what it was, but Brett ended up home not long after I got off work so we watched all the primetime football games and I didn't get through my signs until yesterday! We have been so busy this week so now I have found some quiet time to post my signs and an update on a very important game weekend for Georgia Tech and a busy week!
Now.... for the signs, there were tons of signs in Fort Worth to choose from!
The quarterback at TCU was referenced to be "ginger-topped" meaning red headed.... we see some clever signs using this media induced nickname and some other player's names.
TCU is proud of their purple
So the story on TCU is that they are in a non-BCS qualifying conference. This means that it is much harder for them to get into a BCS game and the National Championship even if they are UNDEFEATED... which they are! You can tell the frustration from crowd through their demands for a visit to the national championship!
Got BCS?
Re-naming the school:
Your QB is not Cute!
The Utes eat poop.... so mature!
I like this country music sign! Carrie Underwood for Heisman!
Still referencing the BCS....With a fun visual aid!
Fun with the iFrog.... there's a sack for that!
Some Texas Rivalry going on!
Fun use of School letters and Mascot!
Here is the horned frog hand gesture!
Corso is the frog prince!
Fun Times with Rhymes!

Here's your sign... College GameDay Edition, Week 10

In honor of upcoming Veterans Day, College GameDay was at the Air Force academy in Colorado for the Air Force Army Game. They opened the show with a tribute to the fallen soldiers in the tragedy at Fort Hood. The soldiers stood at attention in silence and 3 fighter planes did a fly over. Then the crowd went crazy! It was so moving.... ever notice how anything patriotic causes emotion to swell up inside of you?
This sign was great because it used ESPN call letters to remind us to thank our soldiers for their service to our country!
United States Department of Defense!
I loved the Lee Corso Signs!
Army's mascot is a group of mules....
Steelman is a player for Army... another shoutout to the gals I know that read twilight.

This sign made me laugh because I have a friend that went to Navy and the whole staff from Navy is at Tech now. The stories they have shared about the strict rules the academies have really made me wonder... is this sign just to be funny or were they really required to attend?
A fun academic joke... study hard or you'll end up at Army! This is a shout out for my mom... my Grandma's name is Mary Virginia...
I liked the feel of this sign.... It was referring to the undefeated and overrated team Iowa that lost yesterday!
So there were some signs for other schools: a couple Roll Tide signs, Go Gators signs... and this one was for Alabama's player Cody... and a reference to how LSU fans smell like Corndogs. I saved the best sign for last......You have heard of the controversy. Brandon Spikes a Florida Defensive player was caught on TV attempting to gauge out the eyes of a Georgia player. This makes me laugh... very clever! "Spikes 4 H"eyes"man" so funny!Have a great week!

Here's Your Sign.... College Gameday Edition, Week 9

College GameDay was live from Eugene, Oregon for the big game between the Oregon Ducks and Southern Cal. This game was going to prove whether or not USC was overrated and if the Oregon Ducks were all they were Quacked up to be! Turns out that this was the case! Oregon stomped USC! Another fun thing was that College GameDay was on Halloween so there were some spooktacular signs and images!

This Mr. Potato Head actually was from the Oklahoma State Texas game but I thought it was so cute that I had to include it!

Now to the signs:
I picked out the Haloween festive signs... this sign below really pulls Halloween together with one of the fun facts about the Oregon stadium! Oregon has the loudest stadium per capita in the country and the loudest recorded sound in the stadium is 127 decibels!

I loved the Ghost on top of this sign and the use of the ESPN Call letters! Oregon Ducks Spook Trojans!

Boo.... using the Oregon logo!

R.I.P. USC was everywhere

The use of ESPN combined with the name of the stadium in Oregon

Creepy hand pointing to the sign holder!

Cute and Creepy costumes in the crowd

There were a lot of signs referring to the birth control method brand name... Trojans.... I chose to leave them out to keep things PG but there were some clever ones as you can see in the signs below.... but from the different signs we learn that Trojans break, leak, and are ineffective and beyond.
A shout out to my girl friends who read twilight.... Apparently the USC Quarterback reads it too!
A play on words using the Duck mascot.... I'm ducked up on quack!
It was a fun and frightening football Saturday for all.....Now on to November Madness!
