Perhaps desperate to start building the same sort of tradition with its football program that its basketball program is already steeped in, UConn recently created a trophy for its “rivalry” with Central Florida.
UConn unveiled the trophy on Monday, which is has named the “Civil Conflict” trophy. Is it pathetic that two schools that have played each other twice have created a rivalry trophy? Yes, but it’s even more pathetic when one school does it without the other’s knowledge.
Just checked w/ @UCF_Football: "We have no involvement with the trophy or creating a rivalry game with UConn.
