The old one looks like something I would find at my grandparents house on a shelf or hung on the wall

Friend,
Aesthetically, you are correct. Symbolically, though, as the NCAA has transformed from a noble organization promoting discipline, character, and virtue into a group, like the colleges themselves, that exists purely for profit, the new soulless, corporate trophy style is appropriate.
By the way, did they ever release who was in charge of V Alexander’s recruitment? Was it Orgeron, who also was in charge of R Bush, D Jarrett, and Frostee Rucker’s?

The new one looks like a check in window at a doctors office.

The ncaa should award medals instead of trophies.

Old one looks it would put a hole in your floor if it fell over.

The truth is both of them suck.

Maybe. But it still looks more ornate with solid craftsmanship.
The new one looks like something you order off Amazon from China...with the quality to match it.
Unfortunately, college sports aren't immune to the trend of trading in classic for cheap. The NFL conference championship trophy went from this piece of classic craftsmanship
To this rinky-dink piece of crap guys can use to iron their pants

I wish they'd sell replicas of this trophy.

old had too little of a peepee.

in general NCAA trophies are lame.
win something as cool at the CWS and you get a fancy plaque

I agree with you but given the general tackiness rampant in society in general maybe we should consider ourselves lucky that it isn't worse.

It's too bad CFB only used the Bowl Alliance trophy for 3 years.

the crystal ball becoming the golden CFP flashlight is the worst downgrade in sports
