In this OFF THE RAILS episode of the OFD Podcast, Josh gives his annual plea for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish to join the rest of the college football world in the promotion of their rivalry trophies. More specifically this week (and it really only has to be this week) the rivalry trophy with the USC Trojans... The Jeweled Shillelagh.
Why doesn’t Notre Dame bring this thing to the field to be won or lost? Why are they so casual about the trophy? Brian Kelly is running around at every chance he gets to talk about the trophy, and it has been promoted heavily with the trophy case and other videos showing the thing off - so why not let the student body get a little taste?
