If there was to be a "Corn Bowl," why didn't it happen between Iowa and Illinois? It is Iowa and Illinois who battle for the title of the top corn producing state (with Iowa winning, of course), with Nebraska significantly behind in 3rd place. I believe that the western part of Nebraska is a bit too arid for corn production and only the eastern half grows it like we do.
We were the "Corn Huskers" back when they had "Bugeaters" as their chosen moniker.
How about asking John Deere to underwrite the rivalry and maybe have the Golden Tractor or the Golden Plow trophy?
And yet, you took the time to post in it.This is probably the stupidest thread ever created. Speculating on what a trophy might be called if there is a trophy, because there's speculation that Nebraska MIGHT joint the Big Ten.
awesome - but I think the land grant trophy is a close secondJust did a google image search for "worst trophy ever," and found this...

Welcome my friend to the 21st century, where people can join this thing called the interweb, it also has these cool things called message boards, where people talk about things that aren't always here yet, just to see other peoples opinions... (you can even see naked people on this interweb)
I recently got the interwebs on my phone... it is glorious.
Not only that but I'd be willing to wager the personal computer will one day make the type writer obsolete.
You sir, are crazy.
Ok, I keep getting off topic, but I do love the idea of a vintage hawkeye logo holding a corn in its talons.
How about a single ear of corn, standing straight up. Call it the Cornelius trophy. I like the idea of the Corn bowl, but it sounds too much like Cornhole when spoken out loud.
