In which case: just give it back to @lifeofschneids
We will exchange it. I will accept it on behalf of the UConn fanbase and distribute accordingly within state borders.
I’m going to go out on a limb with my theory on the trophy and this is pretty likely IMO.
UMass has a sponsored trophy game with Buffalo. Learfield is very protective of their assets and potential inventory.
Another trophy, of which has been talked about much more and not sponsored, would devalue the sponsorship sold by UMass Learfield.
Both schools are refusing to acknowledge the trophy. Why would you let fans have something of intrinsic value? Everything needs to be sold… even if there’s nothing to sell.

It’s been about 12 hours
A great Friday night for @UConnFootball and @UConnHuskies fans but .. .where is the Southwick Jug?
Oh this is fun!
Massachusetts came in with 76 marbles. They leave with 61.
UConn took 15 of them at home, 35 to 16.

“UConn wins 35-16. Who wants the rivalry trophy? Neither. No team wants it. It’s just floating around.”
The way we won last night is why I’m so high on Candle’s future.
It was just a professional ass-kicking. Dare I say, boring! We had a very basic game plan - run it down their throats and trust that it would break UMass down - and it absolutely did.
Defense forced 5 straight 3 and outs. Absolutely dominated.
It was a must win game that was never in doubt and we just took care of business. 📈
They said @MikeMutnansky would lose the trophy and he literally did.
Alas yet another rivalry trophy, this time the Southwick Jug, has been left behind by the teams “playing” for the right to call it its own at Rentschler Field.
UConn dominates the #CumBowl 35-16.
Goodnight from East Hartford.
