Lambert-Meadowlands Trophy
The Lambert Trophy was an annual award given to the best team in the East in Division I FBS college football.
In affiliation with the Metropolitan New York Football Writers, the Lambert Trophy was established by brothers Victor A. and Henry L. Lambert in memory of their father, August V. Lambert. The Lamberts were the principals in a distinguished Madison Avenue jewelry house and were prominent college football boosters.
