"...the trophy is still presented to the winning school of the previous year's contest at halftime."

"Members of two junior honorary societies, Bucket and Dipper of Ohio State and Atius Sachem of Illinois, meet between the third and forth quarters of the game to present the Illibuck Trophy, a wooden turtle, to the winners of the previous year." |
The presentation happens in the 4th Quarter. Below is a picture from the presentation last year from my seats. I don't know if it is different from one year to the next, but this is how it went last year.
