Another Bowl Team We Beat ~~~~ :)
From U ESPN Big 12 Blog
4. Saturday's biggest winner in the North Division was Nebraska, and it had nothing to do with any Big 12 games. Syracuse's shocking upset over Notre Dame has dropped the Irish far down the Gator Bowl's wish list and pushed the Cornhuskers into the inside track for the game if they can beat Colorado on Friday. The Cornhuskers would be 8-4 and would have the sizzle of winning five of their last six games -- as well as returning to a bowl in coach Bo Pelini's first season. Gator Bowl officials are already salivating about a potential Nebraska-Florida State matchup, an enduring bowl treat between two once-dominant programs that were matched up four times in New Year's Day bowls from 1988-94. The only way that scenario won't happen will be if Notre Dame stuns USC next week in Los Angeles, where the Irish are 1-5 since 1996 and lost their last three games by an average margin of 27.3 points. Sounds like the Cornhuskers and their fans better start stocking up on suntan lotion.
