Video: Hauling out 180-pound Battle Line Trophy no easy task for Razorbacks
Published:
Congratulations, Arkansas! You just won the brand new Battle Line Trophy. Now, all you have to do is take it home.
All 180 pounds of it.
The Battle Line Trophy was unveiled on Monday for the annual Missouri-Arkansas rivalry games, and it looks quite nice. It’s made of silver and stands more than four feet tall.
According to Arkansas athletics, the trophy depicts the outline of the two states with the border of the two states being divided by interchangeable silver inserts with the words Battle Line in either gold or cardinal. The color of the battle line within the trophy will be reflective of the winner of the most recent game in the series.
It may also be the only trophy that needs to be carted out. Here’s the Razorbacks taking it home after their 28-3 win over the Tigers on Friday.
