Is it the Bulldog in me or is this thing hideous?

LSU is pretty embarrassed by it. I’m sure OM is the only one who pushes lugging this thing around. Tonight the flower actually fell off it. It looks like something made in 15 minutes in a jr high shop class.

It’s a pretty stupid trophy. OM was beginning to get too big for their britches. Thought they had outgrown us because of croom. Little did they know. LOLS

I’m offended. My nephew made that at the Northwest CC Vo. Tech Center in the wood shop. Took him 3 Days.
LSU is their preferred rival, don’t you know.

Looks like something that was either: picked up at some small town festival in the 1980's and now only makes appearances at office white elephant parties
OR: was made at some sort of ill-advised "wine and woodworking" evening that your wife went to and now you have to lie about how...nice...you think it looks on the mantle.

It gave everyone eye cancer. That "trophy" is awesomely terrible. It's like some om engineers got together and decided to piece together the absolute best thing they could come up with.

What I don't understand is why LSU would go along with a Magnolia Bowl Trophy when Mississippi is the Magnolia State. This sounds like some type of crap some delusional OM people came up with to try to make their football program look more prominent or whatever, but I still can't see why LSU would go for it. Maybe I'm missing something through the years, on the rivalry, but if it was the LA/MS Bowl, the LSU/OM Bowl or vice versa , it seems that would be more relevant. In actuality, it's two SEC western division rivals who hate each other's football program.

The State flower for both MS and LSU is the Magnolia. According to Wikipedia, that had to be 100% submitted by an OM fan, both student bodies voted to give a trophy to the “rivalry” in 2008. The trophy came about in 2008. So it isn’t even that old. So that brings plausibility to the Stuckey’s theory.

Did anybody else see it fall apart when the LSU players took it off the field?

That's Cracker Barrel quality craftsmanship stuff there.

One of these days LSU is going to whip ole missus *** in Oxford and just leave that ugly piece of **** there.

In addition to thumbs up or thumbs down, can we add a wtf or wuuuut button? Name one other “ school a vs school b” bowl. This magnolia bowl is stupid, granted, but it’s because it’s forced and contrived, not because of the name.

Battle for the Boot LSU vs Arkansas

Up north they have the Battle for the Apple Bucket which is Michigan vs someone not named Michigan State

And you have The Paul Bunyan’s Ax which is Minnesota vs Wisconsin.

I think there is some game also up north where a Nail keg is the trophy.

They probably tried to leave it there tonight but Bdork ran over to their side(because they won last year too) and pleaded with them to hold it up so pictures could be taken with them holding it up so all the OM fanboy journalists can write their tripe talking about how valuable their rivalry is.

As well as being the state flower in both states, truck stops are popular in both too. Its a winning trophy no matter what.

Cue the landshark defenders to tell us that abortion was made by a homeless, paraplegic, blind, gender-reassigned, protected race, title 9er and we should all be ashamed.

That field said rebels. They clearly do not embrace landshark (or black bear)for that matter.

Yep, first thing that came to mind for me is one of those engraved things you see while walking the strip in Gatlinburg.

Paul Bunyan's axe is pretty cool too between Wisconsin and Minnesota. The only "trophy" I've seen that rivals that thing that LSU and Ole Miss play for in cringe-worthiness is that slab of ribs that Memphis and UAB used to play for.
