It is hard to believe that the 2009 college football season has officially begun. Although the main focus is on the games themselves, students, alumni, and other fans alike enjoy the history and pride attached to collecting memorabilia.
Aside from making annual visits to colleges and attending championship games to obtain the latest and greatest gear, there are numerous resources on the internet to find some great stuff. In particular, you never know when someone will post a priceless piece on auctioning sites like eBay or online communities like Craig’s List. For instance, in just a few short minutes of searching, here are a few of the many available items we found:
An Alabama Bear Bryant Gametime Sculpture
Aside from sculptures, there are all kinds of artwork available to collectors related to the team of their choice.
A Reggie Bush Autographed USC Trojans Football
Many college players end up playing for the NFL, so owning a piece like this may benefit you even more after the player graduates.
An Authentic Full-Size Virginia Tech Football Helmet
There is something to be said about obtaining authentic team apparel.
