Week 1’s College GameDay didn’t disappoint, but what signs took the cake as the best? Auburn and Oregon fans showed up and showed out.
Sure, everyone watches ESPN College GameDay because of the football knowledge provided by Kirk Herbstreit, Lee Corso, Rece Davis and Desmond Howard, along with a guest picker, but secretly everyone is paying attention to the signs.
It’s heart-warming to see the crew back talking about football ahead of a full Saturday of action but the signs took center stage because, well, they’re prominent in the background.
But obviously there were some signs that were better than others. Since this week’s Auburn vs. Oregon GameDay focus takes place at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, the coverage wasn’t on an actual college campus, so there weren’t as many team-specific jabs as there would be if it was in front of mostly students.
That will change as the week’s progress, but the signs still didn’t disappoint as Duck and Tiger fans showed off their humor.
Here are some of the best College GameDay signs of Week 1:

I mean, that’s just not nice. True? Maybe, but not nice. Extra points go to mean signs.

That’s just unfortunate. Never want to see that happen. At least it wasn’t his wife.

A reference from The Office was a hit — for those who actually watched the show. I’m guilty of not watching.

You tell ’em, Ricky.
Movie references were big and Toy Story 4 was on many people’s minds. But this is just cruel.
