[QUOTE="ThatGuy, post: 928191, member: 3440"] Agreed! The Pig and the Axe are two of the other genuine Big 10 trophies. Seems like they started with the teams, and grew out of those rivalries. I’ll never understand manufacturing a trophy for a game just because your conference says “there has to be a trophy, and here’s what we’re going to call it, and here’s what it represents.” The best trophies start with the teams, the students, or the fans. Funny thing is, Nebraska and GT have been tied to similar fates since my wife and I started dating 11 years ago. When one has a good year, so seemingly does another one. When one goes off the rails, so does the other one. As to your other comment, the past few years, it actually mostly mirrors on a weekly basis. If Tech plays first and has a bad game, we’re prepared for Nebraska to do the same. And vice versa. I’m of course hopeful that we both return to excellence, and that the parallel paths continue - but If given the choice, I’m naturally gonna pull for the Jackets. 🙂 FWIW, still love PJ Fleck and what he’s done with your program. Glad to see y’all keeping on rowing the boat! [/QUOTE]
