In that case the SEC's gonna have to bring it with more than just The Iron Bowl, the Egg Bowl, the Battle for the Boot and the game formerly known as the WLOCP!

Why can't it just be the Iowa-Nebraska game?

Did you actually research this before you posted it?

quote:

With that, the institutions plan to honor one citizen of Iowa and one citizen of Nebraska prior to each Heroes Game for their extraordinary act. The heroes will be nominated by friends, neighbors or co-workers and will be guests of the two teams at the game where they will be honored on-field during the games. Each will also have their name and hometown etched on the Heroes Game trophy.

"It will recognize some people that are probably ordinary," Nebraska athletic director Tom Osborne said Friday during a news conference. "Not wealthy people, not politicians - which is probably a good thing."

Those honored might include those who helped save lives in their communities.


OH NOEZ THE BIG 10 IS SO EGOTISTICAL!!!!11111!!!!!

Don't get your panties in a wad. They can honor heroes without continuing their obsession of shitty naming schemes.

Legends and Leaders. Tell me it's not gay.
