Can you imagine playing your rivalry game EVERY year and holding the "award" until your next meeting?

Here's a list of ALL the BIG TEN Rivalries and their awards.

• Illinois-Northwestern (Sweet Sioux Tomahawk)
• Purdue-Indiana (Old Oaken Bucket)
• Indiana-Michigan State (Old Brass Spittoon)
• Iowa-Minnesota (Floyd of Rosedale)
• Iowa-Wisconsin (Heartland Trophy)
• Wisconsin-Minnesota (Paul Bunyan's Axe)
• Michigan-Michigan State (Paul Bunyan Trophy)
• Michigan-Minnesota (Little Brown Jug)
• Illinois-Ohio State (Illibuck)
• Illinois-Purdue (Purdue Cannon)
• Penn State-Minnesota (Governor's Victory Bell)
• Penn State-Michigan State (Land Grant Trophy)
• Ohio State-Michigan (No trophy)

Who will win their respective rivalries January 6th, 2007?

We didn't have a trophy last year, we just threw it together, so it's a lil unclear as to who "officially" won that night. I am searching for the statsheets. I've made a few phone calls and the majority of us believe it was between my FIGHTING ILLINI and Edgar's FIGHTING IRISH. So all I can say for now is, the reigning MWEFL Electric Big Ten Champions are...........the FIGHTING I......

Good question, Bryan, lest you jest...???

In 1999, ND was officially invited to join. The faculty senate endorsed the idea with a majority vote but the board of trustees voted against it. ND actually joined the BIG EAST CONFERENCE in all sports except men's football, lacrosse and hockey, where they remain "independent." So for the most part, as far as football is concerned, I'll allow them to play in our lil Tourney until which time they officially join a different conference.

Jimbo,

You know you're my brother, love you and will do everything possible to support this. Let me see what the lady of the house says about a "quicky". Can I bring the Wolverines to Chi-Town if I can make it?

I've always got to give Frank my support and Edgar so this may be worth the time for me. Let me know if I can help in any other way. You got my number.

You don't even gotta ask! Looks like the Example I posed above will come true: Michigan (A) and Michigan (B).

If Notre Dame is going to be included lets not forget there rivalry games with the big 10 teams.

Notre Dame vs Michigan St. (Megaphone)
Notre Dame vs Purdue (Shillelagh Trophy)
Notre Dame vs Michigan (No Trophy)

Plus they've renewed there rivalry with Penn St.
