presidentjlh Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 TO HONOR THE BRAVE MEN AND WOMEN WHO HAVE SACRIFICED THEIR LIVES FOR THIS NATION, TWO TEAMS ARE GOING TO PLAY FOR A QUICKLY THOUGHT UP BRASS TROPHY Quote Link to comment
StPaulHusker Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 As awful as this idea is, I hope we win the thing every year. Quote Link to comment
Blackshirts007 Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 At least I can see a legit rivalry building with Wisky, unlike the manufactured one with Iowa.I wouldnt call two blowouts out of three games a rivalry. Also if Alverez wasnt at Wisconsin i really wonder if we would attempt a rivalry with them. Let's face it, none of the B1G opponents feel anything like a rivalry. Nebraska and Colorado were real rivals. They hated us, we hated them. It has tradition being a Black Friday game yearly. I for one thought I'd never say this, but like some have said, I miss playing Big 12 schools. I miss playing Oklahoma, Texas, Oklahoma state, k state, Missouri, Colorado, A&M etc. it just took a few years to realize it. Quote Link to comment

Let's be honest we were use to beating K-State, Mizzu, Colorado...and even though we lost last year we "look down" upon Iowa. Speaking for myself and others I have talked to those blowouts put a terrible taste in our mouths, because we expect to be the best and Wisky has punched us in the mouth so far. I don't feel a rivalry/extra emotion with any other BIG10 game....besides Wisconsin. I legitimately don't like them. The rivalries aren't going to build over night. It is going to take certain circumstances to build them. But the Big10 west, imo, will be controlled by us and Wisky for years and that is a good stepping stone. Those Big12 rivalries/relationships took time and these will too. Quote Link to comment
LumberJackSker Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 So this is basically going to be the west division trophy every year Quote Link to comment
NUpolo8 Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 The next trophy game we get forced into should be over a live bald eagle. By far my favorite raptor to eat. Much more bold flavor than your basic Northern Harrier or Common Barn Owl. 1 Quote Link to comment
BigRedBuster Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Meeehh...I really don't care. The fans and players care about winning the game. When one team wins, them carrying off this thing just doesn't have the same appeal as an old jug or axe. Win the game. Everyone's happy. Well.....other than badger fans. Quote Link to comment
BigRedPowerWagon Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 I don't have a problem with trophys, or freedom or heroes. But something else needs to be don't about these stupid trophy ideas. I mean jesus, alvarez used to play here and coach there so why not make it a broz stachue of him. Who gets to claim the barry each year. That's better than this. Quote Link to comment
Badger_HB Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 How about the winner gets to wear red jerseys the next year? Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 How about the winner gets to wear red jerseys the next year? That's already been set up for next year. Quote Link to comment
Hingle McCringleberry Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 I actually think the blowouts are helping to form one Only from one side. We hate Wiscy because they destroyed us, the dont give a crap about us because they destroyed us. If it gets balanced with blow outs and hard losses and dreams ruined year in and out then it will develop. Heck the way the B1G is going they wont be in our division in four years. 1 Quote Link to comment
hskrfan4life Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 The trophy is nice, on each side it depicts one of the two stadiums. One is Wisconsin's stadium the other is ours Quote Link to comment
WoodyHayes1951 Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Not phallic enough for my taste. Pass! How about a Corndog/Polish sausage trophy? Incorporate the Nebraska side and the pork product side of Wisconsin all while still resembling a phallus Quote Link to comment
