College football programs have all kinds of strange awards given out for outstanding performances. The new totem for Virginia Tech’s offensive line might be the weirdest.

This season, the Hokies’ top offensive lineman of the week is awarded with “The Fool’s Hammer,” a meat tenderizer engraved with various Virginia Tech motivational phrases.

The Key Play has more on the unique award.

The Hokies have surrendered just two sacks in as many games, and after a rough outing against No. 1 Ohio State, they ran for an impressive 7.3 yards per carry against Furman in Week 2.

Expect the weekly battle for “The Fool’s Hammer” to heat up.
