The year of the questionable T-shirts in college football received an exclamation point at the SEC championship game on Saturday night.
The website College FB Section posted a tweet from a fan attending the game between the Auburn Tigers and the Missouri Tigers at the Georgia Dome of a vendor selling T-Shirts that had a unique but classless twist on Auburn's "War Eagle" chant.
In between the "War" and "Eagle" was the present participle of the F-bomb.
The fan, J.W. Cannon (@cannonjw), said in the tweet, "#Auburn #SECChampionship t-shirt for sale outside the GA Dome. Winning classy! #sportsbiz pic.twitter.com/L591MujB8t"
The tee is just the latest in a series of T-Shirts around the SEC that have made news on the world wide web.
After Alabama's 34-28 loss to Auburn in the Iron Bowl last week, and an LSU-slanted website quickly printed "Daylight Saban Time" T-shirts, referring to the Crimson Tide getting one second back on the clock in regulation that resulted in the crazy 109-yard missed field goal return by Auburn's Chris Davis for the game-winning score.
Earlier, Alabama made fun of Oregon fans' "WE WANT BAMA" tees after the Ducks lost to Stanford 26-20 on Nov. 7. The Crimson Tide fans came up with a T-Shirt with "WE WANT BAMA" crossed out and "WE FORGOT STANFORD" written underneath.
The T-shirt parade may yet continue after Auburn's 59-42 win over Missouri coupled with Michigan State's 34-24 victory over Ohio State in all likelihood will put the Tigers in the BCS Championship game against Florida State on Jan 6, 2014.
That leaves four more weeks of SEC creativity to come up with something new.
