Battle line rivalry trophy.

[dhizzle]

I don't know what to think about it.

awful

absolutely terrible

[BPsTheMan]

Lord have mercy

it's another map

a map

ever hear of Old Oaken Buckets or whatever?

Note to David Bazzell - it can be something besides a map

this is embarrassing, and I would tell that to David in person

[Motley Que]

If you took off the Missouri part from the top and got rid of the Mizzou logo on the bottom they would be a great looking trophy.  No?

[dhizzle]

I guess it will have to grow on us.

[Atlhogfan1]

Dumb.  Bazzel needs to stop.  The boot is dumb enough. 

"...we are quickly turning the Battle Line Rivalry into a budding college football tradition."

"...the annual Missouri-Arkansas game has the opportunity to grow into one of college football's great Thanksgiving weekend traditions."

 

[Hogarusa]

Pretty strange that we now play for 2 trophies of a map an outline of 2 states

Dave's more of  a "lover not a fighter" type.  Take it easy on him now.

Thank you

[TNhawgfan]

So it's just clear glass with the words "Battle Line" in the middle of it? I bet they paid somebody a ton of money to design that, and my 8 year old niece could have done that in 5 minutes

[jgphillips3]

Jeff Long called it "One of the most stunning trophies" in college football.  The article doesn't mention it, but I believe immediately after uttering those words his nose grew a foot and personnel on site had to use a fire extinguisher to put out his pants. 

[Hogarusa]

Hopefully the trophy doesnt weigh 200 pounds

[Hawgey-Davidson]

Open wide. They are cramming this conjured up rivalry down our throats. Pitiful quickly comes to mind.

[BPsTheMan]

No. Just no.

Please. No.





Dear Jeff Long,

No.

Sincerely,

Harry Rex Vonner

[Michael D Huff AIA]

Can you take the outline of Missouri off and put it on "The Boot"?

[Atlhogfan1]

Should have had something representing a meth lab or an Ozark hillbilly.  Little brown jug is already taken though.  Or maybe something representing mediocrity.  Trade pictures of Broyles and Faurot or Pinkle. 

[NMMIHog]

Just like the name for the game: Stupid!

[dhizzle]

Hopefully the trophy doesnt weigh 200 pounds

Pretty close it weighs in at 180 and the interchangeable borderline weighs in at 25.

[BPsTheMan]

100,000 no's for the Battle Line Trophy?

no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no

Dear Jeff Long,

I agree.  Bazzel needs to be stopped.  In some cases, the pulse of the fan base should be taken over certain matters.  Instead, Bazzel can keep creating dumb darn and the program and fan base gets attached to it. 

[Hogarusa]

Pretty close it weighs in at 180 and the interchangeable borderline weighs in at 25.

Thanks, i forgot to read the article before posting

[PorkRinds]

I love it.  It perfectly captures the meaningfulness of our rivalry with Missouri. 

[wholehog92]

That is absurdly plain and lazy design.

It is as sterile and corporate as the rivalry itself.  On second thought, I guess it is perfect in that regard.

awesome. the moonshine jug

[FreshHog]

The only upside is when the razorbacks win, you take that piss yellow bar out and put a cardinal red bar in.





:razorback: :razorback: :razorback: :razorback: :razorback: :razorback: :razorback: :razorback: :razorback: :razorback:

[PorkRinds]

The better question is, why do we need two games that have a trophy?  I can see the boot I suppose, but two of them?  The only trophy we should be playing for is the national championship trophy!

[dhizzle]

The only upside is when the razorbacks when, you take that piss yellow bar out and put a cardinal red bar in.

I thought that was the only unique piece about this trophy. Why don't we just trade stuff animals if this is what the trophy is going to look like.

:razorback: :razorback: :razorback: :razorback: :razorback: :razorback: :razorback: :razorback: :razorback: :razorback:

I'd like to see the Mizzou bar removed and beaten over someone's head.  Haven't decided whose head yet though: Bazzel, Long or those at the SEC office who decided to invite Mizzou into the conference and forced us to start playing them at the end of the season.

[SemperFi]

Two trophies that look the same...great; I'm enthused and just downright thrilled and overcome with excitement.

They might as well bolt that thing down at the UA, because mizzou will not be seeing it up in there place for a long, long time.

[BPsTheMan]

hey yall, we need 197 more of you to post 500 no's please

[OinkinOregon]

David Bazzel please go away?

[JBoroHog]

I hope he's hard at work designing the Hostess Cupcake Trophy for the winner (wink wink) of next year's UA-Alcorn war.

[longpig]

 Does winning mean the other team has to keep it?

Dear Dazzling Dave:
There is creative genius in the world for hire.  You Sir and the Cartographer who helped you design this are not two of them.  Stick to your night job as a Chippendale's dancer.
Sincerely:
The mildly imaginitive

[JBoroHog]

Can we trust U of Missouri to find a Safe Space for it ....... if they ever have possession of it?

[ricepig]

I hope he's hard at work designing the Hostess Cupcake Trophy for the winner (wink wink) of next year's UA-Alcorn war.

Games at WMS, we only participate in trophy games we have a chance to win.

[OinkinOregon]

I hate it.   

[glengarry]

Eh, whatever.  Don't hate it.  As long as it sits behind the Boot every year in the trophy case, I'm all for it 

[longpig]

David Bazzel please go away?

No kiddn, he got a rich daddy or somethin?  I suspect he and his Fabioness are forced on the program causing great chagrin to many, not just the better side of Hogville.

[20hog11]

Most trophy games have an interesting story behind them. Ours just seems forced and so we get a generic trophy....

[scruf]

Designed by a community college art student with well over 13 participation ribbons. (14)

[OLDHOG]

As much as I'm not moved by the trophy itself, I certainly want to have it and keep it, if you know what I mean?

[flagstaffhog]

Well, we have the boot. Should this ugly monstrosity be called "the sock"?

[Wildhog]

God, that's awful.

It looks like Bazzel made it by hand.

[scruf]

Well, we have the boot. Should this ugly monstrosity be called "the sock"?

+1 Well, NOW it should.

[Bowfishinghogfan]

How can this be called a rivalry. There is nothing on the line either way to the winner or loser. At least when we played LSU to end the season it had implications for the West. A win or loss by either team doesn't shake up anything. Long should have fought tooth and nail to not let us get shafted over replacing LSU with methouri.

[Arkansas Fan]

We're not rivals with Missouri, ffs!

[Silence O the Hams]
