If Facebook were the SEC

If you haven’t seen it yet, check out Chad Gibbs’ look at the last decade of the SEC: According to Facebook. It’s pretty damn funny and nostalgic. Chad also has a new book out called God and Football: Faith and Fanaticism in the Southeastern Conference Check out a taste of the link below

We’ve added a new page that has Numerical & Alphabetical Rosters for every team in the SEC. I went through each school’s media guide and trimmed it down to just the roster. They are in the .pdf format and can either be downloaded and printed, or loaded on your phone for when you’re tailgating or inside the stadium. The link for the rosters will stay in the right hand column of every page on the site. If this is something people like, we’ll do it for the other conferences as well.

The following Auburn tailgate was submitted to us by reader Ben Bone:

We have been tailgating in the amphitheater area for a very long time as well. I have met some of the best people in my life in and around Auburn games in the fall. We have a kick ass time every week there is a game. We have a decent set up that centers around a custom made grill trailer. It was made and designed by my good friend Layne Hudson. Here are some of the details:

Made from a 1972 K5 Blazer frame
Grill itself is 5 feet in diameter and was a old dairy kettle.
The rear coolers were a old salad bar.
It has a smoker box, keg with water —>sink, propane burner, stainless cup holders, cutting board and lots of storage up top.
New additions include ipod boat radio, bazzoka 10″ 200 watt subwoofer and 2 8″ bazzoka wakeboard speakers.
Neon light tube underneath that can strobe, flash or blink to the bass
Flag holders on top
Directv mount, new wheels and tires (match my truck BFG AT’s)

Our tailgate also has a port-a-cool, 20×20 tent, 32″ lcd tv, directv, chairs, tables, lots of food…

I’m not huge on amplification at a tailgate, but the dairy kettle grill, wings, and location on campus are ideal.

Oh the horror. So they finally get around to releasing Snuggies with college logos on them, which theoretically should be a huge success. But they took an “article of clothing” that any normal person would be timid about wearing in public, and made it more ghastly. Did they just hire the same designers who create the college hats and t-shirts that you find at gas stations and Wal Mart? There appear to be at least 4 different logos on each of those. Why wouldn’t you just put one gigantic logo on it? People already make blankets like this, all you had to do was add sleeves. But I guess it’s not all bad news. For those of you out there that already have shirts like this to wear in September you now have a way to keep warm in November without sacrificing your trademark style.
