Several also have rivalry games with trophies at stake against Notre Dame, Iowa State, Mizzou, and other boarder schools in the area.

Basically every game on their schedule is a "rivalry" and for a trophy...

Here are the OOC that include trophies:

Iowa–Iowa State football rivalry - Cy-Hawk Trophy
Michigan State–Notre Dame football rivalry - Megaphone Trophy
Missouri–Nebraska football rivalry - Victory Bell
Notre Dame–Purdue football rivalry - Shillelagh Trophy

17 games total with trophies unless I'm missing some.

LSU should go to the Big. They could still be considered a top team and not be afraid to play most any team in the conference.



As long as they didn't put LSU in the division with tOhioState and Michigan, otherwise they'd be mad at playing two good teams in same year.


Their league office is not in Birmingham.

I like playing UF every year, and think a game in FL every other year is good for recruiting

The LSU-Florida trophy would definitely be swamp themed. We need ideas.

Battle for Troy Landry's Polo shirt, not sure he would we willing to give up one of the three he owns tho.

A Cypress plank with a picture of Marie Laveau on it? There's possibilities.

The Big Ten solution is a shitty solution but will have less of a competitive impact on their league than doing something similar in the SEC. Why? Because Indiana and Purdue suck

Whatever the trophy is, it has to be overgrown with Spanish moss

Seriously. Cypress and Spanish Moss for obvious reasons. Hell, that in itself might suffice. Might send Alleva/Foley an email.
