We had a trophy like that in college with a guy standing behind the pig; however, it was not a coveted piece of hardware.

I have a soft spot for Paul Bunyan's Axe:

Unlike many other rivalry trophies, there is no trophy presentation. The winning team runs to the opposing team's bench (unless they won the year before) and they just take it. And then they dance around with it as the fans cheer em on.

There's no hiding it. The winning team always finds it and takes it.

I was going to post Floyd. Like Paul Bunyan's Axe, the winning team takes claim of Floyd. There's no presentation. It's certainly an experience to see it.

I have to say, the Big 10 does it right when it comes to rivalry games, etc.

On the subject of rivalries, has anyone else heard of the name of the series between Iowa and Nebraska?

And I found this trophy from the Florida-Georgia game.


Pretty stupid, IMO.

I kinda like the Arkansas-LSU trophy.

How bout the "owned by Iowa State" bowl?

In the last 13 meetings, Iowa State beat Iowa seven times.

And who can forget this in Lincoln the season before last...

Don't think that would stick as Neb is 86-17-2 against 'Clowns and Iowa has won 21 of last 28. All Aggy teams are inferior.

Good submissions, except for the Jeweled Shillelagh. That thing looks ridiculous.

It's funny because it's like the bastard child of both mascots. I can't believe I've never seen this before.
