It's a relatively young trophy, as The Boot has been around only since 1968. But it has a great back story: It was worn in Vietnam by a Colorado State alum who was an Army ROTC instructor at the school. During the game, the trophy is guarded by an ROTC detachment from the past season's winning team.
