The Big Bear Trophy is presented to the winner of the annual MichiganMichigan State men's soccer game. The trophy originated back in 2000 when Michigan head coach Steve Burns purchased the wooden-bear sculpture to commemorate the rivalry.[2] Burns said that he and Michigan State head coach Joe Baum collaborated on a trophy game because they "wanted to have some kind of trophy for this rivalry that the teams can pass back and forth. We hope that it takes a life on its own."[3]
