JQK Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Why is the Sugar Bowl Trophy in there? The winners of this game will not receive that trophy, nor will the winner of the Sugar Bowl play in this game. A completely out-of-place element...

NEW.ERA Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Yeah the Sugar Bowl trophy has no business being there. Overall it's solid but nothing special, last year in Glendale was great and same with Pasadena the year before.

Cujo Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Replace the Sugar Bowl trophy with that big crystal football and it's a winner. But using the THAT trophy for THIS game is a pretty big oversight IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeauxColonels Posted June 10, 2011 Author Share Posted June 10, 2011 Replace the Sugar Bowl trophy with that big crystal football and it's a winner. But using the THAT trophy for THIS game is a pretty big oversight IMO.Good idea. I was thinking of putting a fleur de lis there like it had in the prior title game logo for New Orleans...but then I think they would be a little too similar.I also find it interesting that the prior 3 game logos had a football or football stitching in them and this one does not.

Buffalo Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 That's a godawful clusterbang of mismatched fonts. Did they really use a rounded sans? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJWalker45 Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 My guess is since the same committee that runs these games run the bowl that is played the week before they are using the logo to link the two games together. There is the Fiesta Bowl logo present on last years logo as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanMcD29 Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Totally just noticed this, but both the college football and men's basketball championships are in the same exact venue this year.

AJM Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 Upgrade from the 2008 game logo. Agreed the the Sugar Bowl trophy needs to be replaced. The crystal ball trophy (AFCA National Championship Trophy) or a fleur-de-lis would be a great replacement. If they really wanna stay ahead of the game, they can place an asterisk within the logo to cover them when a participating school in investigated by the NCAA for violations.

scottysprings Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 Besides the use of the rounded sans-serif font and the Sugar Bowl trophy on there it's my favorite of the bunch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
missouri tigers Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 Other than the mismatched fonts, this is one of the better looking bowl logos in recent years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sportsfan0518 Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 Better than last years. Last years was too big and congested. The Super Bowl trophy should not be there though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brave-Bird 08 Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 terrible the sugar bowl trophy doesnt need to be in there, and the weird gradient effect on the BCS really bothers me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tvko Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 Yeah this is a separate bowl game. They keep theming its logo on the bowl that is also held at the site, and it doesn't make any sense. Perhaps standardize the logo like the NFL? You know what they say, "Traditionalist's can go die in a hole if they don't like it." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps standardize the logo like the NFL?NOOOOO!!!!!!!!!! Don't do that. But at the same time avoid using the Sugar bowl trophy. Yes, it's in the same stadium and run by the same people but do you really think they need to be on there? It'd be like putting the Colts logo on this year's Super Bowl logo that is worn by either team on the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thespleenenator Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 wow, this is almost as bad as the 2008 national championship logo; not creative at all. Why you make fun of me? I make concept for Auburn champions and you make fun of me. I cry tears.Chopping off the dicks of Filipino boys and embracing causes that promote bigotry =/= strong moral character.

mcrosby Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 Looking at the Sugar Bowl Trophy, does it look tacked on to anyone else? Not in the sense that the designer threw it on last minute, but that someone else put it there, the resolution looks off compared to the rest of the logo. https://twitter.com/OutOfThisWC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But using the THAT trophy for THIS game is a pretty big oversight IMO.Agree convincingly!If this wasn't noticed upon unveiling, the NCAA and BCS are even more stupid than we thought. They need to tweak that fast!They could have even gotten away with using a small replica image of the Superdome, but the Sugar Bowl Trophy? There was never even was a stadium known as the 'Sugar Bowl' ... it was a just a game played at Tulane Stadium.Why issit the logos for the Pasadena BCS games with Roses always seem to turn out the best ?
