So did Nebraska ever win a Big 12 title?

[batonrougesooner]

Help me out here. I'm thinking not.

Kind of surprising. After all, they are Nebraska. :eek:

1997, 1999

beat A&M, and Texas respectively

lost to Texas in 1996 and 2009, OU in 2006 and 2010

Of course.

Just so long ago it honestly escaped my memory.

[yermom]

going 8 times, and winning 7 is pretty incredible

and i can see why the North teams are going crying to other conferences ;)

[batonrougesooner]

I know I'm biased but it's pretty incredible what Stoops has done in that game.

They're going to need to expand the Switzer Center just to find room for the trophies.

Or they could just put them where all the BCS trophies were supposed to go. :)

those Fiesta Bowl trophies are hideous anyway :D

Is there chocolate in the football?

That would be cool.

They really need to quit hiring trophy designers from India.

The real Fiesta Bowl trophy is presented to the winning team then kept by the Fiesta Bowl committee. The winning team then takes a replica back with them.

The Fiesta Bowl trophy is worth more than the Crystal Football as it's worth $30,000 of Waterford Crystal. The gold football for the Fiesta Bowl trophy is pure 24K gold and overall the trophy is valued at $1 Million....says the Midwest Trophy Company in Midwest City which produces most of the bowl trophies.

Hideous or not, I want another one in the trophy case.

Re OU, you could make a case that Stoop's best team to play in the Big 12 CG lost. Just came up short in the NC game. Had White at QB. Can't remember who the RBs were, possibly K. Jones and Works. The 2008 OU team was great but had a problem at LB after RR was injured. Losing Box against OSU didn't help either.

Are the people who made that the same ones making those fine statues at *?





Still want one, even if it is ugly and doesn't have a chocolate center.

Does the golden football come off? That would be cool.

It does, actually. I saw a pic of a coach (from Boise, I think) holding it up. Not sure if it was after they played us or TCU.

Re my last post, I meant (obviously) the best OU team since the 2000 squad to play in the Big 12 CG.

Yeah, but it's too bad he can't win big games anymore, huh?

[OUEngr1990]

Soon, we are not going to have enough real estate to house all these trophies!

Well, I guess we could always rent some space over at the sheepherder's trophy room, seein' as how it is, for the most part, empty, other than the cobwebs. :D

We could start treating the Big XII trophies like the Stanley Cup and let people take them home for a week or so.
