The Big 10 Trophy Games includes some great traditions: (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Big_Ten_Conference_football_rivalry_games), but Nebraska arguably only has 1 true "Trophy Game" that aligns with most of those traditional (i.e. the $5 Bits of Broken Chair trophy originated organically).
Now, I am not saying that I want to oust the Wisconsin/Nebraska "Freedom Trophy" or the "Heroes Game Trophy" with Iowa/Nebraska because I respect the message that comes with each, but there ought to be some traditional significance added to each of those that is tied to the matchups as well as some others developed in the coming years/decades.
So, just out of off-season boredom and my own curiosity, if you could add a Trophy Game, who would it be with and what would you have the trophy be? Also, what changes to the Heroes and/or Freedom Trophies would you add to better reflect the Iowa and Wisconsin games going forward?
