An interesting/fun read, albeit one spent with the wrong team:
Before the most significant Axe game in recent memory -- the Big Ten West Division title was at stake -- Wisconsin officials would secure the Axe until the game had been decided and then present it to the victors closest to their tunnel. With 20 seconds left and a 34-24 lead against Minnesota, that time had come.
Although the Axe had limited time in the spotlight on its biggest day of the year, it had a very busy weekend. ESPN.com was there to document it all. That's right: We spent two days with an inanimate object.
And it was awesome.
