Why'd they replace the crystal football with that ugly trophy?

I understand the BCS system is no more.. but why'd they get rid of the trophy? The new one is hideous.

So there are two trophies? The Coaches Trophy and the playoff trophy?

There are umpteen different trophies. The new ugly one is the one that will be given on the field. The others are awarded later. The Crystal Trophy is not going away, but you will hardly ever see it.

There are several trophies. Grantland Rice trophy, AP Trophy, Coaches Poll trophy, now the people organizing the playoff made a trophy.

Looks a little tougher to break when it has to make a trip to some Alabama Wal-Mart, though.

The Coaches Trophy existed before the BCS.

The new trophy looks better up close. The playoff committee needed a new trophy for branding purposes.
The AP and coaches trophies will continue to be awarded.
The AP and coaches trophies will continue to be awarded.

The trophy doubles as a pocket puss.

fun fact.
Cholly Mac was the guy who lead the coaches association when the trophy came into being. Basically created the thing.
ETA: new one is a bore
