Gotta be the two ugliest trophys in sports. Thanks, Houston Nutt. Can we throw them out the window of the plane?

PS Looks like the magnolia got a recent “upgrade” from a high school shop class.

Looks like it came from a flea market.

I don’t mind the boot. Although I’m not sure why it has to be the size of a small car

They are both terrible and not necessary. What kind of ridiculousness will they come up with for the aTm game? It's just a matter of time.

The Boot is an awesome trophy. People hating on it are fools. The detail in the metal work is just sublime.

The magnolia bowl trophy is tremendously shoddy and tacky, but that's part of its charm. It's the perfect trophy for the LSU-OM rivalry. Two schools and programs that hate eachother so much they didn't even put for an effort to make an even halfway decent "trophy." It is so bad it's good. In a word, it's outstanding.

You people bitching about these trophies are wasting your time.

The Tiger Rag is the best rivalry trophy. Especially because we had it for most of it’s time.

The boot is a classic
The magnolia is a Wal-Mart trophy award

knowing TAMU, it will be a glow in the dark reproduction of Toledo Bend. It'll look like a morphadite version of a bean pod with the Sabine river coming out the top.

They should probably get some better glue for the magnolia. It was hilarious though when it fell off in post game.

I don't know why they made these trophies so big. We should take a cue from cricket and go smaller.

How hard can it be to make a cup in the shape of a magnolia?

EDT: Hell, just buy one of these... Magnolia Chalice and put a base on it like the Stanley cup.

That is a sharp looking chalice. I think you are on to something.

I have a Japanese magnolia tree in my yard. Beautiful tree.
