Salute to Veterans Bowl NCAA College Football Season 2025-26 Troy Trojans x Grateful Dead Skull Logo Champion Celebration Winner Acid Washed T-Shirt

The Salute to Veterans Bowl 2025-26 officially kicks off bowl season on Tuesday, December 16, 2025, at 9:00 p.m. EST, featuring the Troy Trojans versus Jacksonville State Gamecocks at Cramton Bowl in Montgomery, Alabama. This commemorative acid-washed t-shirt celebrates Troy University’s postseason achievement, as the Trojans clinched bowl eligibility for the third time in four seasons and won the Sun Belt West Division title during their impressive 2025 campaign. The design incorporates Grateful Dead-inspired skull logo artwork, reflecting the band’s iconic aesthetic that has influenced collegiate merchandise through licensed collaborations like the Oregon Ducks “Grateful Ducks” collection, though this specific Troy Trojans piece represents a unique championship celebration garment rather than an official NCAA-licensed band collaboration. The acid-washed fabric provides a vintage, weathered appearance that complements the psychedelic rock artwork, while the “Champion Celebration Winner” branding commemorates Troy’s victory in this pivotal Sun Belt versus Conference USA matchup. Troy enters the game following a five-game winning streak and their “revenge tour” against previous season opponents, making this bowl appearance particularly significant for the program’s 25-year FBS history. The t-shirt serves as both game day apparel and collectible merchandise for fans attending the IS4S Salute to Veterans Bowl, which honors Alabama football legends and supports veteran causes through its partnership with defense technology engineering company IS4S. The Grateful Dead skull motif, adapted for this college football championship context, features the distinctive skeletal imagery that has become synonymous with the band’s merchandising legacy across sports Americana collections, while maintaining focus on Troy’s cardinal red and silver color scheme and Trojan mascot branding. This limited-edition acid-washed tee represents the intersection of college football achievement and counterculture music iconography, offering supporters a distinctive way to commemorate Troy’s 2025-26 bowl victory while honoring the military veterans celebrated through this game’s philanthropic mission. The garment’s distressed finish and bold graphic design make it ideal for fans seeking authentic postseason memorabilia that captures both the excitement of Troy’s Sun Belt championship run and the artistic legacy of rock music’s most merchandised band.​
