This hoodie was $70 before the game and $10 after the game. I wear it, who really gives a shite?

Why wear it? Easy, people that wear 2011 BCSNCG gear bought it because they were Proud of LSU's team for playing in the National Championship.

It only happens once in a while for most really good teams -- it NEVER happens for MOST teams.

Win or lose to PLAY FOR the National Championship is an outstanding accomplishment.

We lost --- our team played a horrible game and we got shut out. It happens --- but I for one, had a great time NOLA that week --- more so before the game, but even the day after - I soaked up the atmosphere of the NOLA and the quarter, being there for LSU playing in the National Championship. I held my head HIGH, wore an LSU shirt on 1/11 on my way home and went straight to the office.

I WAS asked why I was wearing LSU gear and I said, "Because I'm proud to say I went to LSU and we played in the National Championship"

We lost but about 118 FBS schools would have traded places with us gladly, I'd bet.

And NO - I'm not settling for mediocrity -- playing for the National Championship is not mediocre - it's better than all but 1 other team in the country... and on that night, the other team beat us. They played their BEST game, we played our WORST --- so they won and shut us out.

Unintended double click.

Received a new white LSU football jersey for Christmas 2011 with the BCS Championship Game logo patch...needless to say the logo patch is now gone. Still wear the jersey though.

Yeah.....i don't wear that shirt anymore. If it was a really close game and we played really well but lost, I'd probably still wear it. But after that performance...not so much. I'm still sick to my stomach of that game. I still cannot believe that happened.

Getting there is an accomplishment.

Winning the SEC is an accomplishment.

I would wear either shirt, and i would tell you to screw off if you said anything to me about it.

I wouldn't tell you anything about wearing a 2011 BCSNC shirt. It's a personal choice that I refuse to wear mine. The team played amazing that whole season and looked piss poor that game. Wearing that shirt reminds me of everything that happened in that game.

Made that mistake before the Cap 1 Bowl against Iowa. Never again.


I didn't learn my lesson from that game. I bought 1 for the Sugar Bowl vs. ND. In the 2nd qtr when the Irish were gashing LSU's run defense, I started regretting my purchase. Fortunately, the 2nd half saved me! I've not bought a game shirt before the actual game since then.

When it comes to wondering what other dudes wear, I'm usually the first to say "who gives a shite" like many in this thread have done so.

In this case, I'm on the other side of the fence. Wouldn't be caught wearing that shirt anywhere. 1/9 never existed.

Why? I was packing for a trip last night, and I found a 2011 BCSNCG shirt hiding deep somewhere in the back of my closet. I forgot I even had that shirt, for obvious reasons. It got me thinking about how I saw LSU fans wearing those shirts on 1/10/12 (WTF?), and I still see people wearing them to this day. Again I have to ask why? TIA


It's kinda like losing a war and for the next 150 years......uh, yeah.

Hey, we were #2 nationally in that one

I got the Tyrann #7 Jersey with the BCS that year. Wore it to the game that we got our arse kicked. Finally wore it 2 weeks ago while tailgating at home. Neighborhood friends kept talking about that game. I think it'll stay picked up another 2 years.

Ugh. My mom got me a shirt before the damn game. I was like "Woman! No! We only buy after the game!"



I wear it around the house when washing the car or doing stuff at the barn. I may even turn it into a rag for cleaning my tack.
