to me, it was always Big Game and not the Big Game; don't know why

I've heard other people also say that it's called "Big Game," without "The." I don't remember hearing that until the last 10 years or so. I'm wondering what others may have heard about this?

I have always felt like the Legends Trophy was kind of made up for marketing purposes when we started playing ND regularly.  ND to burnish academic creds, us the football (at the time).  Not a long-standing tradition.  Am I wrong on this impression?
