Just because we’re in a summer lull with months separating the return of meaningful college football, doesn’t mean we can’t have some friendly competition while we’re at it.
Fandom and loyalty to one’s school go beyond what happens between the lines of the gridiron. From a school’s raucous fanbase to its storied uniforms, you can claim bragging rights to anything and everything, including a team’s emblem.
Saturday Down South recently ranked its tiers of SEC football logos, and perhaps so as not to stir discourse, they placed each of the 14 programs into either tiers 1,2,3 or 4. But naturally, this is the landscape of college football we’re talking about here, which means you can’t put together a rankings list without inciting some inspired pushback.
Do you value a school that pays homage to its history by keeping its logo relatively unscathed through the decades? Or do you reward the programs that made calculated, and fresh updates that helped logos age well into the 21st century? These are just a handful of thoughts that come to mind when assessing these rankings.
Check out the tiers below, and it’s safe to say that in our humble opinion, the Texas A&M logo is severely disrespected compared to their SEC counterparts. Let the friendly debates begin!
