The Monon Bell (pronounced MOE-non) is the trophy awarded to the victor of the annual college football matchup between the Wabash College Little Giants (in Crawfordsville, Indiana) and the DePauw University Tigers (in Greencastle, Indiana) in the United States. The Bell is a 300-pound locomotive bell from the Monon Railroad. As of the end of the 2024 regular season, the two teams have played against each other 131 times. Wabash leads the all-time series, 63–59–9, and also has a slight advantage since the Bell was introduced as the victor's trophy in 1932, 44–43–6.
