The University of Florida Student Government announced Wednesday that the Okefenokee Oar would be presented to the game's winner starting this year, in the hopes of establishing an annual tradition. It's just a way to increase the friendly competition in the game, said Eric Conrad, student government spokesman. Presenting such a trophy follows in the tradition of other rivarly games http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_NCAA_college_football_rivalry_game s . The winner of Michigan-Minnesota gets the Little Brown Jug, the winner of Minnesota-Wisconsin gets Paul Bunyan's Axe and other teams have also exchanged quirky items in longstanding rivalries. The oar, which will be presented to the student government president of the winning university, is carved from a 1,000-year-old cypress tree cut from the Okefenokee Swamp http://www.fws.gov/okefenokee/ , according to student government. The swamp straddles the Florida-Georgia border. The oar is supposed to symbolize the area that has always been fought over by the states, Conrad said. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ GATORS: ONE VOICE ON SATURDAY - NO VOICE ON SUNDAY! 1996 National Football Champions | 2006 National Basketball Champions 2006 National Football Champions | 2007 National Basketball Champions 2008 National Football Champions | Three Heisman Trophy winners: Steve Spurrier (1966), Danny Wuerffel (1996), Tim Tebow (2007) - Visit our website at www.gatornet.us -~--~~~~--~~--~--~---
