WoodyHayes1951 Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 Why does there have to be a trophy for every game that's played in the B1G? JC................. Now you guys have more trophy games than we do. Congrats. 1 Quote Link to comment

Kiyoat Husker Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 The game could develop a different name and identity in a less contrived way over time, regardless of the trophy. At least this is a starting point. Quote Link to comment
Kiyoat Husker Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 In the spirit of the "red river rivalry " we could name the game after the geographic features that separate us: Like, the "Missouri River- Sh1tty State-Mississippi River Rivalry " 1 Quote Link to comment
BigRedBuster Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 The more I think about this, the more I honestly don't like it. I'm usually not someone who cares about this stuff. But, this is just a horrible idea of a trophy and a forced issue with the game. "Freedom Trophy". This game, these teams, this trophy has absolutely nothing to do with "Freedom" and quite frankly, I think it actually cheapens anything that pertains to what freedom and our military stand for. It's two organizations trying to make more money off of the entire thought. 1 Quote Link to comment
StPaulHusker Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 I would have rather seen the 2 teams wear camouflage uniforms with US flag designs on the helmets. Quote Link to comment
Kiyoat Husker Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 You know, there already is one of these at Camp Randall that we could .... "aquire" Quote Link to comment
Hedley Lamarr Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 What a corny and cheesy way to create a trophy Quote Link to comment

BigAppleBucky Posted November 11, 2014 Share Posted November 11, 2014 The next trophy game we get forced into should be over a live bald eagle. One Buckyville suggestion: I suggested Obie, which is a statue on display at the Southwest corner of Camp Randall. Or maybe a minny Obie. Loser has to keep it. We have had fun photoshopping it over the years: Quote Link to comment
