This would be so freaking simple get a old JD A or a international h or m paint one side cardinal and gold. The other purple and silver then put the scores of all thr games on a plaque hung on the front and if that fills up add one to the back hitch.

Between the 2 fan bases all the a.d. depts would have to do is approve it the fan bases would have it done in 6 months and for free, more than likely.
While I agree, I think they would reject anything as big as a tractor, just because of the logistics of it and not wanting to deal with it.

An old pedal tractor maybe, would work though.

The full tractor would be super cool and unique though.

I always thought we should have a bronze pitchfork for this series
I'm envisioning something more realistic like an old pickup truck with a rifle rack, naked lady silhouette mud flaps, dangling scrotum, and a few dozen empty PBR cans thrown in the back.

Are they dumb? Do they not like money? Add a trophy to the game and it gets more interest even if just a little.
Still a damn shame that they're just going to throw this streak out for no reason.
I really don't understand the aversion.

The best I can tell is that the people in those positions are leery about leaning into the "hick" stereotypes, which is a major mistake IMO given the respective fanbases.

And yet they let this monstrosity see the light of day...

I don't think Pollard is worried about that, maybe he is but he's never been worried about being hip and cosmopolitan. Plus the rest of the country (online at least) calls it that already.

Pollard has shut this down as has KSU's AD. I know this for a 100% fact.

I'm speculating about their logic, but they've made it very clear that they (the respective ADs) don't want to formally acknowledge this rivalry.

Does anyone outside Iowa care about the CyHawk?
Does anyone outside Iowa and Minny care about that rivalry?
Does anyone outside Iowa and Wisky care about that rivalry?
Does anyone at all care about Iowa/Nebby?

How about Mich/Mich st?

And on and on.

Very VERY few rivalries carry much interest outside their respective fanbases.

Most "rivalries" are manufactured and no one really cares about those (like people trying to make ISU/KSU a big deal). Real rivalries are cared about by more than their fan bases.

Army/Navy
Bama/Auburn
OSU/Michigan
OU/Texas
ND/USC
UGA/Florida
Miami/FSU
