Minnesota replacing Iowa as Nebraska's Thanksgiving Game

[Saunders]

We did, at Minnesota's request. 

We were cool with it.  Riley had his picture taken with it, there was a photo booth set up with it, and then POOF! it was gone - right about the time Minnesota indicated they weren't cool with it.

Ok, I couldn't remember.

Eh, Minnesota might not have liked it either.

But I don't think it's too hard to imagine ADSE wanting to get rid of it at the first chance he got.

Do you sleep well at night?

As a Hawkeye fan, I'm glad we are playing Wisconsin the last game of the year, the series is at 45-43-2, a real rivalry.  Nebraska needs to go back to the Texas League/B12 and make both conferences better.  

You're kind of a d--k.  (dork)

As a Gopher fan, I'm glad to be playing Nebraska last game of the year.  Unlike Hawkeye fans they can read and write, and unlike Badger fans they don't copulate with roadkill.  As far as I know.

Usually quite well.  Thanks for trolling asking.

Pretty sure it was joint, but there is no reason Eichorst would want to promote a Pelini based trophy

From a reddit guy who did a FOIA request:

I sent a request to UNL's legal counsel last week asking for any emails among certain university officials pertaining to the $5 trophy during the week following the Nebraska-Minnesota game.

Today I received their response.

Unfortunately, no emails were exchanged that discuss the location or status of the trophy. The only interesting little tidbit was an internal email showing that they are indeed suppressing the trophy:


No idea on the whereabouts of the chair since it isn't an official trophy game. I don't think either school is interested in promoting it if we can avoid that.

I guess in the end, the  B1G had to "evaluate where Nebraska was as a program".  And Minnesota does have more National Titles than the Huskers, and neither are relevant today, so this is a good fit.

You'll be happy next year!

Like I said earlier, this game will be on a Friday.  Fleck will want the exposure

Lol, Fleck won't be the coach there by then.

Ah, how precious and you even thought it would impress somebody to admit you're a Hawkeye fan right off the bat.

Possibly, but it will be moved officially w/in the next year or 2, and Fleck will still be there for that.

I would gladly trade you for Iowa State

And if you subtract our national titles from Minnesota's national titles, you still have more than Iowa has.

I expect him to be gone after 2 years if they go well enough.

Ah true, ancient history....I think Yale is still in the top 5.......how many Big10 titles do you have?  Like I said two formerly relevant teams playing on Black Friday, perfect.  The West will be decided the following Saturday Iowa/Wisconsin.

It's gonna be awesome watching Kirk's son lead you into mediocrity into the next 30 years.

For some reason I doubt that EVERY school will be rotating.....

Speaking of ancient history... three posts, all trolling.

Bye.
