"I just received an invitation to the event. Not sure if this is a clue about the trophy, but the invitation includes a definition for the word hero: "A person of distinguished courage or ability, admired for their brave deeds and noble qualities."

Any guesses what it could be? I am guessing part of it will be Nile Kinnick and someone from Nebraska?

Something to honor our folks in military service? That would be out of left field.

 
Corn Nation has a little blurb about it, complete with a picture of the invitation.

Nothing about this seems forced at all.
Agreed. I'm not going to raise a stink, but I'd rather have this turn into a rivalry rather than just declare it a rivalry from day one. Rivalries are something you build.

 
How about the River Rivalry ........... First it intentionally mocks Missouri, Oklahoma and Texas ...... I like the idea. Iowa may not like it .... I guess we could with traveling pig but why not make some $$$ and call it the Hormel Trophy ... my first job was at a Hormel Pig Farm south of Lincoln.

 
Isn't the loser of this game required to claim Carter Lake each year? That's motivation enough for me.
