Across the frozen tundra of North Dakota, a hotly contested intrastate rivalry boils over, with acts of thievery ripped straight from the pages of heist and espionage movie scripts. Secrets loom larger than the big sky country that these schools inhabit - despite the inspiration for the trophy merely being pocket-sized. Yes folks, this episode has all the hallmarks of a W&W classic - century old rivalry, undergraduate pranks, good old fashioned theft, and a tuned up host quoting Rush Hour 2 ad nauseam. Hawks. Bison. It’s the tale of the Nickel Trophy.
