I don't remember if they give out multiple trophies, or just to the team that won all of the tie breakers.
Will Iowa still get a West Trophy if they were to tie with Wisconsin and others?

Lol, anyone remember ISU's Big XII North "co-championship" that they shared (but not really) with Colorado back in the 00s?
I think they were both 4-4. Colorado beat ISU head to head and so got to go to the championship game. Didn't stop ISU from trying to convince everyone they won something though.
In other words, I sincerely hope there is only 1 trophy.

Perhaps there is a 'Participation Trophy'?

Also, I heard the players' mothers rotate on bringing treats for after the games.

Nope.
Here are the tiebreakers all spelled out. If all else fails it's a random draw.

You are rarely wrong but I think you are wrong on this one. If Iowa ties for the best record with Wisconsin, we do win a co-championship but Wisconsin advances based on the tiebreaker.
This happened to Minnesota in 2019. They claim a co-championship and I’m sure they have a trophy. They tied with WISKY but Wisconsin won the head-to-head game.
It is basically the same rule they had before divisions. In 2004 Iowa tied with Michigan for the go-championship but Michigan advanced to the arose Bowl because they beat Iowa heads up.
