#126/341 - Purdue Boilermakers

Another rebuy from BFL (Before Foot Locker). For some reason, I have an affinity for the bastard stepchildren of particular states. After Indiana, Notre Dame, and now Butler, Purdue is arguably the 4th most popular basketball team in the relatively small state of Indiana. I couldn't tell you what a Boilermaker is but I know it can be a shot of whiskey and a beer served together or it has something to do with trains. So in my mind it's a mix of heavy machinery and alcohol, so apparently they are a volatile bunch in West Lafayette, Indiana.

#125/341 - Louisville Cardinals

Man this one took me awhile to get. Turns out after a team wins the NCAA title their jerseys are suddenly worth something. Staying under $20 was a challenge but I did it. Also happy to have a recent style.

#124/341 - Jackson State Tigers

Another representative of the Southwestern Athletic conference (SWAC). This conference has been nothing short of whipping boys in the NCAA Tournament for as long as I can remember. Jackson State last made the dance in 2007 where they lost by 43 to Florida.

#123/341 - Baylor Bears

Somehow this picture looks way worse than the jersey does in reality. I bought this from a retail clearance site and it's a beaut. Baylor is an interesting team that's come on strong of late but hasn't really broken through to the deeper realms of the NCAA Tournament. From what I understand, their coach is a strong recruiter but a mediocre coach. Or I could have that backwards, I don't know.

#122/341 - Portland State Vikings

Now here's a shocker for you. Not only was Portland State one of the first jerseys I got but it was complete rubbish, had to be replaced, and I actually a found a better jersey for the Vikings. Portland State hails from the Big Sky Conference and have one of the most confusing logos I've ever seen. It looks like a streaking racing helmet with horns or perhaps a green flame with a massive grin and white flame trails for eyes.

#121/341 - Michigan Wolverines

This is another long overdue replacement from before I learned about the Foot Locker knockoffs. I don't know why, but somehow the University of Michigan has their own yellow. It's so distinct and yet so.... well yellow. It's been nice to see their resurgence over the years. Hopefully they can put another decent team on the floor this year to replace the talent that left.

#120/341 - Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders

I know it doesn't look like much but it was obtained through the school's bookstore in a clearance sale so it's as legit as they come.

#119/341 - North Carolina A&T Aggies

Another MEAC school checked off along with another school from North Carolina. As I've stated before, there are a lot of MEAC knockoffs so getting a legit one is always nice.
