I know this is the football board but I just wanted to share that the Bass Fishing team is currently in 4th place for the National Championship. Check out my blog for more info. Today is the last day of the tournament.

I'd love to have one of those fishing shirts they wear.  Anyone know where I might find one?

i wish they would have had that when I was in school at Auburn.  Now thats one thing I had the dedication for

Good luck to our guys! Hold 'em hook.

I am a bit confused though. I saw us, and others, lose the NC to one kid from Kansas St.. His other angler didn't qualify for some reason, so he fished against two man boats. They were fishing on a lake in S. Car.. ( Lake Murray maybe?)

Im actually really good friends with Matt and Jordan Lee, never seen guys more dedicated to fishing in my life.  They will be on Bassmasters one day.

Today's weigh in is over and we have finished in 2nd place, Oklahoma State won by a little over 2 pounds. Now the members of each of the top four teams will fish as individuals and one of them will get a spot in the Bass Master's Classic.

So does that make Okie St. the National Champs or does it depend on who wins the individual title?  Either way, War Eagle!

OK State is national champions. Now they will be fishing for a spot to fish in the Bassmaster Classic.

Late Update:

In the individual tournament bracket, Matt and Jordan Lee defeated Alabama's Dustin Connell and Logan Johnson, respectively, to set up an all Auburn, brother vs. brother final. Read about their wins over Alabama here.

Congratulations, to Matt Lee for winning the Carhartt College Series Bassmaster Classic Bracket and the honor of fishing the Bassmaster Classic in Oklahoma in 2013.

Read the transcript from their Twitter chat with fans and pros following the championship.

This was the National Guard FLW National Championship that was held on Lake Murray in South Carolina in April of 2012. The Auburn team of Matt and Jordan Lee finished 4th with a total 3 day weight of 43-03 lbs. They earned $5,000 for the Auburn Bass Club.

Here's the Auburn teams' previous finishes in the FLW championships:

2010 - FLW National Championship 3rd Place

2011 - FLW National Championship 3rd Place

2012 - FLW National Championship 4th Place

I'd love to have both the BASS club shirt and the FLW club shirt, but unfortunately for us the club cannot sell the jerseys.

@wmattlee We sell some T-Shirts. The school won't let us sell the jerseys. Copyright issue... #stinks

Well, that does stink. I would think it would be a good money maker for the club.
