      No, man, the Rooter King is ours. They can't have it. Not even for a little while.

      I still think we should bring out a big, honking, 30-foot-tall Rooter King cowbell before football games and ring the damn thing. The biggest, strongest cheerleader would ring it, using a humongous mallet. People in rows 1-12 would need ear protection.

      We could have a 12-foot-tall model for basketball games.

      It would be glorious.

        This is my recollection.I think the little brown jug was kind of a copy of one of the Big Ten rivalries. I think this could be resumed in the future unless someone can think of something more creative in terms of interest.

          The Little Brown Jug goes back to Fielding Yost being leery of the water at Minnesota. Brought the team's water with him in a jug.

            The game needs a sexier name for marketing purposes than the "Prairie Spirit Charitable Challenge." That's what Augustana and USF call their annual rivalry game in basketball. Maybe something like "Go Time on I-29."
            This space for lease.

              This may actually apply more to the Marker game, but we could call it what everyone knows it is: The Bragging Rights Bowl.

                It's only a traveling trophy if it actually leaves Brookings.

                    This would be correct. Used to be up in the Ginn Trophy room. It's a little jug, some connection to a pharmacist or something. If you ever run into Ron Lenz I'm sure he could tell you more about it.

                    The "rivalry" could be dubbed the "Beatdown in B-town" or the "Rivalry, Schmivalry, We Kicked Your A$$ Again" Bowl.

                    Sorry, getting smackish.

                    Heard some similar thoughts while at the Goopher game about USD being added when Delaware was dropped. Nothing concrete, just fan based rumors.

                          Do smack warnings only apply to USD fans in here? Just checking the rules

                            Oh f'r crying out loud!

                            1) Catch 'Em All self-censored

                            2) The mods aren't on this board 24/7

                            3) Lighten up!

                              No, they apply to everyone. Self recognized I was stepping a little near the line.

                              Mods, feel free to give me a slap on the wrist or delete what I've written if too smackish.

                              Heck, with the frequency of my postings a little "time-out" wouldn't kill me.

                                The "rivalry" could be dubbed the "Be at down in B-town" or the "Rivalry, Schmivalry, Let's Re-Live the 1990's Again" Bowl.

                                Fixed.










                                footnote - 1990-1999 - 13 games played, 2 ended with SDSU on the low end of the final score

                                sorry, just not a fan of starting up the "rivalry" already, in due time, but not in my time
