Northwestern Sends Nebraska Cookies as Big Ten Welcoming Gift

On July 1st Nebraska officially became the 12th member of the aptly named Big Ten. As a welcoming gift, Northwestern’s athletic department sent Nebraska’s athletic department these cutely decorated cookies. Check out the picture shared by Nebraska video coordinator Jim Shaw via Darren Rovell:

What do you know? They’re little footballs! Laces out! Honestly, I’m surprised Northwestern sent cookies and not cupcakes considering that’s what they’ll be for the Huskers football team. It’s a nice gesture, but I still think this was a much better present between football rivals.
