Yeah, we have been losing to Bucky so much lately I had forgot they had a game winner trophy. LOL15-0 the last five years in three of the trophy games.
1-4 in the other.
Guess I'd keep the three hawks have. Used to not having the other.
Drop the Heroes...it's about as fake as they get.
Rivalry trophies have become like bowl games. There are too many of them and as such, the value of the really cool ones has been diluted.
We've been purposely losing the Wisky game simply because we don't want that stupid trophy, so I'd say that one.
The Nebraska and Wisconsin trophies are contrived...no history or story behind them. CyHawk isn't far behind...but at least it represents an in-state rivalry.

Floyd is #1, AINEC. It's perhaps the most iconic rivalry trophy in all of college football, with a storied history. It has to stay.
Actually the winners of The Game get some elitist douchey individual prizes like gold pens or some sh** like that.Absolutely agree. Keep Floyd, he goes back to 1935 or so. Plus the Gophers suck.
The rest, dump them in a landfill. Why does a rivalry game have to provide a trophy to the winner? What dumbass though that up?
Michigan and Ohio State have been playing for more than a century with no trophy involved. It is "The Game." No lame-ass in marketing thought that up, it just is.
You serious Clark?Actually the winners of The Game get some elitist douchey individual prizes like gold pens or some sh** like that.
Well one team gets the pens. I can't remember what the other gets.You serious Clark?
What? No illibuck or how ever it is spelled? Didn’t Illinois and NW just dump their trophy?These are the trophies worth saving in the B1G:
Floyd of Rosedale
Paul Bunyan’s Axe
Little Brown Jug
Old Oaken Bucket
Paul Bunyan Trophy
Old Brass Spittoon (maybe)
The rest are kind of lame.
Well one team gets the pens. I can't remember what the other gets. Still don't like either program.
Edit-I think Iowa plays more trophy games than anyone.
Illinois and Northwestern play for the Land of Lincoln trophy which is an Abe Lincoln style top hat. It sucks.What? No illibuck or how ever it is spelled? Didn’t Illinois and NW just dump their trophy?
The ONLY good thing you can say about Minnesota is that their trophies are the best in CFB. Of course they have Floyd vs Iowa, Little Brown Jug vs Michigan, and Paul Bunyan’s Axe vs Wisconsin. Even the newer $5 bits of Broken Chair trophy vs Nebraska is pretty awesome.Edit-
Notre Dame leads the way with 6 trophy games (USC, Michigan State, Purdue, Boston College, Stanford, Navy)
Navy is next with 5 though, technically they only play for one trophy against Army and Air Force (Army, Air Force, SMU, Maryland, Notre Dame)
Iowa and Minnesota are tied for 3rd with 4.
That is based on the limited research I just did..............
I like the concept of the Heartland Trophy. It's just that a bronze bull isn't exactly indicative of Iowa and Wisconsin. I know they couldn't put a cow there, but still......The ONLY good thing you can say about Minnesota is that their trophies are the best in CFB.

Honestly Iowa has Floyd of Rosedale (awesome) and some other lame ones.
Illinois and Northwestern play for the Land of Lincoln trophy which is an Abe Lincoln style top hat. It sucks.
If that's the case, then trash that fv@ker now.If we drop the isu trophy, that’s the first step to dropping the game.
