Home > Paul Bunyan Trophy

The Paul Bunyan Trophy is the prize awarded to the winner of the annual matchup between the American football teams of the University of Michigan and Michigan State University. The winner retains possession of the trophy until the next year's game at which point it is up for grabs again.

The naming of the trophy after Paul Bunyan reflects Michigan's history as a major lumber-producing state. The trophy was first preented in 1953 and is a four-foot high wooden statue on a five foot high base.

Recently, Michigan retained the Paul Bunyan Trophy in a thrilling 3 overtime game on October 30, 2004. Braylon Edwards sparked a 17 point comeback in the 4th quarter to lead the Wolverines to a 45-37 victory.
