One of the most prestigious trophies there is, not just in CFB, but in the entire sports world.
We will have to pry this bad boy out of their cold dead hands

That brave South Carolinian James Bonham rode for reinforcements before being this letter back to Commander Travis in the Alamo:
quote:
To the People of Texas & All Americans in the World: Fellow citizens & compatriots—I am besieged, by a thousand or more of the Mexicans under Santa Anna—I have sustained a continual Bombardment & cannonade for 24 hours & have not lost a man. The enemy has demanded a surrender at discretion, otherwise, the garrison are to be put to the sword, if the fort is taken—I have answered the demand with a cannon shot, & our flag still waves proudly from the walls. I shall never surrender or retreat. Then, I call on you in the name of Liberty, of patriotism & everything dear to the American character, to come to our aid, with all dispatch—The enemy is receiving reinforcements daily & will no doubt increase to three or four thousand in four or five days. If this call is neglected, I am determined to sustain myself as long as possible & die like a soldier who never forgets what is due to his own honor & that of his country—Victory or Death. William Barret Travis

Manufactured rivalry aside, it's a pretty sick trophy
Not that we've seen it much

I got to see the Travis letter on special exhibit at the Alamo a year or two ago.
San Antonio is in the midst of a $550MM major renovation enlarging the plaza, closing the roadway permanently in front of the Alamo, from Houston Street to Commerce. There is also supposed to be a more thoughtful tie-in to the River Walk that is 2 blocks away.
This should have been done decades ago.
ETA: the building labeled “Chapel” is what many know as The Alamo.

Yeah at least it's not a wood or glass piece that is shaped like a state.
I mean that is really dumb and poor.
