Settle down, I'm just joking.
And no, not even in the top 50% of the stupid posts of the night bud. Give the Martinez thread a looksie.

To be truthful, I did not remember that there was a trophy. Since they created it once we really started to suck, maybe they should have another one. The Roadkill Trophy.

maybe it cause we are getting our rear handed to us.
but I'd like to give the game trophy thing up. it's a original big ten thing, we didn't pass round trophies for beating cu, iowa state or oklahoma.
you beat them so you can get a championship trophy

You know, you're right. I don't remember so many trophies in the Big 8/12. Win or not, the only trophy was the conference trophy. There are a lot of participation type trophies in this conference.

Some of the trophies the Big Ten have that date back a 100 years and have stories behind them are pretty cool imo. But these nonsensical things made up by marketing teams like The Freedom Trophy and whatever the Iowa-Neb trophy is called are dumb.

Two team trophies are stupid. "Oh and look here son, there's the trophy for beating Purdue last year, that's my favorite!" Right in there with participation trophies.
