This may be a fictional rivalry with the worst trophy ever constructed, but does that doesn't mean we can't have fun with it.
After losing to Michigan on Saturday, Penn State has been mathematically eliminated from playing for the Big Ten Championship (pretty amazing that it took this long for that to become official). However, there are still three teams alive in the race to Indianapolis to represent the B1G's East division. Thanks to this fact, for at least one more week, Penn State football will matter within the greater college football landscape.
The Nittany Lions have pretty much put the bow on their season at this point.
