Lambert-Meadowlands Trophy
The Lambert-Meadowlands Trophy is an annual award given to the best team in the Northeast in Division I FBS (formerly I-A) college football.
In affiliation with the Metropolitan New York Football Writers (founded 1935), the Lambert Trophy was established by brothers Victor and Henry Lambert in memory of their father, August. The Lamberts were the principals in a distinguished Madison Avenue jewelry house and were prominent college football boosters. The trophy, established in 1936 as the "Lambert Trophy" to recognize supremacy in northeastern college football, has since grown to recognize the best team in the Northeast in Division I FBS. A set of parallel trophies collectively known as the Lambert Cup is awarded to teams in Division I FCS (formerly I-AA), Division II, and Division III. The New Jersey Sports and Exposition Authority, operator of the Meadowlands Sports Complex, took over the administration of the Lambert Meadowlands Awards in 1983.
The Penn State Nittany Lions won the award after the 2009 season for a then record 28th time and the second consecutive year. On January 10, 2011, the NJSEA announced that the University of Connecticut had won the trophy for the very first time, after winning the Big East in 2010 and making their first appearance in the BCS. West Virginia won its fourth trophy for 2011, the final year they were eligible for the trophy, as they will are now ineligible by moving to the Big 12 Conference in 2012. The Cincinnati Bearcats won their first trophy in 2012 by first becoming eligible after joining the former Big East Conference in 2005. Penn State won the trophy for a record 29th time for its 2013 Season.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Nittany Lions Earn Record 29th Lambert Trophy )〕 Rutgers won the trophy for the first time in school history in 2014, their first season in the Big Ten Conference.
Since 1936, there have been 19 different winners in Division I-A/FBS. To be eligible for the Lambert-Meadowlands Award, a school must be located in the Northeast or play half its schedule against Lambert eligible teams. Teams are automatically eligible if they are located in New York, New Jersey, New England and Pennsylvania, while teams in the bordering states of Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia and the District of Columbia qualify if half their schedule features eligible teams. With the establishment of the Big East Conference as a major football conference, members of that conference outside of the Northeast were also made eligible if at least half their schedule was against Lambert eligible teams. Therefore while they were members of the Big East Conference, Cincinnati, Louisville, Miami of Florida, and South Florida were also eligible, and 3 of the 4 won the award.
