Reminder: Tom Herman is in the same conference as these two schools.

The Civil Conflict, eh? The trophy is almost as bad as that name, so props to UCONN on that front. is spectacularly lame.
The best part, however, is that Central Florida is disavowing all knowledge of that hideous lump of cheap metal... AS WELL AS THE ENTIRE RIVALRY ITSELF.
Official @UCF_Football statement: "UCF did not have any involvement in the creation of a trophy or an annual rivalry game with UConn..."

Looks like the first conflict between these schools won't be so civil.
