First of all let me say congratulations to The University of Michigan for beating Minnesota 29-6 in Saturday's battle for the Little Brown Jug.
In a very dismal and disappointing season, keeping a Michigan Tradition alive and successful is a small bright spot. As a Michigan Alumni and an avid fan, We have always been led to believe that the Jug was the oldest trophy in Division One Football. At the half during Saturday's game, a trivia question was asked, 'what was the oldest trophy in football'? Much to my amazement, the answer was The Territorial Cup, given away to the winner of the Arizona/Arizona State football game first in 1899!!
How can this be? Arizona wasn't even admitted to the Union till 1912!!!
You know what I say?.....BULL-SHIT!!!!
Have a Great Week...Peace...!!!

What, are they attempting to rewrite history? No fair! Anyway... I stayed home today. It's coooooold. I am not pleased about the onset of winter.:)
Technical Foul! Not a State, not a record, that's what I say... Rough year, and they want to stiff us on this too? I call Bull sh*t!
Galen,
It's a conspiracy.
YOU are Mr. KnowItAll.
NOT THEM.
Take comfort in that.
Oh come on. I saw all those other "trophies" if you want to call them that. Give me a break. The Little Brown Jug has such a history behind it. Oldest or not it is the best because it is our tradition.
That game felt so good. It makes me feel like hoping for a win against Ohio State. I know that is asking a lot but it just felt that good.
