LATEST STORIES FROM THROW THE FLAG
Ole Miss unveils camo helmets
Picture surfaced on the Internet where Ole Miss unveiled camo helmets. These could be fake or a fan design. I hope to God for the Rebels that Ole Miss never wears these. There is no need to be in camo on the football field. I have a feeling that Hugh Freeze would never allow this.
Your move Oregon. Can you outdo these turdburger helmets from Ole Miss? twitter.com/TJ_Realtree/stâ...

PATRIOTIC
Oregon unveils 'Support Our Troops' uniforms
Oregon has unveiled their new uniforms for their spring game and it looks like the Ducks went the patriotic route. The back of the uniform reads “SUPPORT OUR TROOPS”. The Oregon Ducks are known for having some interesting uniform choices. They have had a uniform that changes color depending on what direction you look at it and also one that had duck feathers on it. New Ducks...

Brady Hoke to give students free donuts before noon games?
It’s hard to get people to come to noon games. You have to start drinking at 7 am if you want to enjoy a good college football experience. Well, the Michigan Wolverine Head Coach Brady Hoke apparently has the solution to bring the kids to the games by noon kick off. His answer is obviously donuts. Come on down to the big house and grab a donut on Coach Hoke. GO BLUE!

Johnny Manziel with a “blunt” kissing the Heisman trophy?
Johnny Manziel has been in the news a lot recently and not just for crushing Oklahoma in Texas A&M’s bowl game. I could list every occurrence but I’d probably get carpal tunnel syndrome just from typing them all out. Next in the saga of “What is Johnny Manziel doing now” is of course him kissing the Heisman trophy with what looks to be what the kids call a blunt. Johnny...
Will Muschamp broke a dry erase board during a rout on Kentucky
In an article about how Florida Gator Head Coach lives his live and how he coaches, it appears Muschamp broke a dry erase board while holding a 38 point lead over the Kentucky Wildcats.
He’s known for this intensity, the guy seemingly allergic to mellow. In that first year, Muschamp broke a dry-erase board from the sideline … during a 48-10 blowout over Kentucky.
The game didn’t...
Auburn rolls Toomer’s Corner for the last time
Auburn Tiger fans rolled the Toomer Oaks at Toomer’s Corner for the last time at Auburn’s A Day and their spring game. It looks like the Auburn community turned out after Harvey Updyke poisoned their trees. Cool to see a community come together.
TAGGED
Spartans statue painted with Michigan colors
Michigan State's Spartan statue was vandalized with a Michigan logo and maize and blue spray paint. See a picture of the statue here.
The WVU Mountaineer is handing out autographed pictures of himself at the spring game
In a weird turn of events for the West Virginia Mountaineer spring game, the Mountaineer mascot is apparently handing out signed autographed of himself per his Twitter feed. Usually mascots aren’t that famous on most campuses but that is apparently different at WVU. Usually the mascot is just some guy (or girl) in a costume with a mask that covers their face. It’s interesting...
QUITE THE TRIBUTE
Auburn fan's huge Toomer's Corner tattoo
The oaks at Toomer’s Corner are gone thanks to a crazy guy named Harvey Updyke who poisoned them, they will live on in tattoo form. The War Eagle Reader was able to obtain pictures of the tattoo as well as the guy’s name which happens to be Giancarlo Guida. Guida happens to be a former rugby player for the Auburn Tigers and was a part of the team that won the 1999 SEC National...
Georgia fan makes “DAWG BITES”
Unless you are all hopped up on Smirnoff Ice or some drugs, you’ll probably find this video horrendous. Let’s take a minute to celebrate the Georgia Bulldogs fantastic failure. It’s absolutely terrible. Georgia rival coaches should play it in every recruit’s house they go. Enjoy the insanity.

A Clemson fan painted a Tiger paw onto South Carolina’s field
A Clemson fan apparently snuck into Williams-Brice Stadium in Columbia, South Carolina and painted a Clemson “Tiger Paw” on the field. The picture was taken by CB Victor Hamilton and he is apparently not happy about it. He had this to say on Instagram.
It’s war they put a paw on our field so #disrespectful
Expect the Ol’ Ball Coach (Steve Spurrier) to use this as bulletin...
An MIT building was lit up like an American flag last night
In the wake of the bombing at the Boston Marathon yesterday, a building at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology was lot up like an American flag last night. It was a great gesture by the people of MIT to show support for the victims of the tragedy and the city of Boston.
MIT building became an American flag last night twitter.com/EliLanger/stat… (via @elilanger, @peteymit...
Brent Pease and Joker Phillips are taking the photoshop recruiting way too far
Joker Phillips and Brent Pease are doing their best to recruit for the Florida Gators on their Twitter accounts. Phillips, the wide receiver’s coach, has already photoshopped himself as “The Joker” from the popular movie “The Dark Knight.” It was a little creepy. Recently he posted another “#ComePlayWRForTheJoker” photoshops.
Now, the offensive coordinator for UF is...

Groom has crazy Mississippi State cake
In my mind, Mississippi State has just won the award for best wedding’s groom cake ever. This cake is detailed to to the inch. There is even a picture of their head coach Dan Mullen on it. The SEC West team definitely has a couple that pays attention to detail and has one amazing cake. A giant hat tip to you MSU fans. The best stadium groom’s cake I have ever seen twitter.com...
Pictures of Johnny “Football” Manziel locking lips with a girl hit the internet
The internet legend of Johnny “Football” Manziel grows and grows by the day. Photos of him “making out” with a blonde girl hit the web today. This also comes after Johnny Football broke his self initiated Twitter ban. Nobody show these pictures to his girlfriend Sarah Savage.

Alabama professor tricks people into thinking Nick Saban will teach a creative writing class
Nick Saban will be be a guest lecturer for a class called “Tuscaloosa: Writing Like a Champion” this fall. According to the course description, the Alabama Crimson Tide head football coach will join Brian Oliu and the focus of the course will be applying Saban’s “The Process” to creative work regarding the winning ethos in Tuscaloosa. Also, this is definitely a hoax by...
Joker Phillips is recruiting hard with Photoshop and Instagram
Joker Phillips is back on his Instagram account with photoshops done by either him or an intern to “#ComePlayWRForTheJoker”. The photoshops are kind of weird (as you can see) but recruits will either love it or hate it. He is using a character from the movie The Dark Knight and portraying himself as such. It’s a little weird that the former Kentucky Head Coach and now Wide...
Johnny Manziel is at the Texas Rangers game
Johnny Manziel, the Heisman trophy winner, is at the Texas Rangers game against the Los Angeles Angels. He got to meet up with Josh Hamilton. Hopefully we will get to see some after party shenanigans that we are used to with Manziel. Two of the best young athletes on the planet. Trout and Manziel. #angels twitter.com/EKayAngels/sta… — Eric Kay (@EKayAngels) April 7, 2013
Georgia’s new terrible logo is painted on their field
This week Georgia unveiled it’s secondary logo and new uniforms. Now, for their spring game, it seems that the logo is painted on the grass. The logo up close looks hilariously bad. Their old school logo is definitely a lot more fear inducing. The Georgia Bulldogs and Florida Gators both play their spring games today in the SEC.
The new Bulldog secondary logo, still unnamed, is...
Massive campaign started at Auburn to fire Jay Jacobs
If you’ve been on the Internet recently, all you’ve heard about it how a former New York Times writer and a former Auburn Tiger football player is accusing Auburn of paying players and everything you can imagine. It’s all conjecture and hearsay and it even caused former Auburn coach Gene Chizik to release a 2 page statement on why Selena Roberts is completely wrong.
Apparently...
Georgia football unveils new logo and uniforms

IT'S TO THE POINT
Recruit claims Miss. St. sent him this letter
According to the Twitter and Instagram accounts of Michael Ferns, it seems that Mississippi State may be sending out letters that just say “YOU’RE A BALLER” on them. If that is true, it is hilariously bad recruiting. Ummm.. Thanks Coach instagram.com/p/XmhmUZSqhs/ — Michael Ferns (@M_Ferns10) April 2, 2013 This is probably a joke by Ferns, who is committed to the Michigan...
