And I guess when I really think about it, Nebraska maybe didn't have a choice. I can see myself raging if we actually turned down a cap 1 bowl offer.

Whether we would have found out... Idk. We've found out about teams who backed out of bigger bowls before.

Martinez's fun just got a shout out on PTI for being amazing...both Wilbon and Tony picked it over Peterson's run in the NFL. Wilbon said it might be the greatest run by a college QB ever, which i :L @, but its still nice to hear

I don't know about best ever, but it impressed the hell out of me

Bowl money goes to the conference and then split but not 100% evenly.

So you have the Big 10 with 12 teams. Lets say Nebraska gets the Big 10 13 million for their bowl game. It is split into 13 shares. The participating team in that bowl gets 2 shares and the other 11 schools get get 1 share each. So Nebraska would get 2 million and the other schools would get 1 million each. That way the participating team gets rewarded for that particular bowl. But that is also why almost every team loses money on bowl trips.

Hope that makes sense.

Yes sir....it does.

Thank you.

That burst at :13... Nobody has that burst in the college game, let alone the NFL. Desean Jackson might have that... Might.

I am not sure on all of the conferences but I know in the Big 10 that they will reimburse the schools for needing to pay for unsold tickets. So like UConn, and many other schools, a few years ago who got raped by needing to spend all that money on unsold tickets for the Orange Bowl, that doesn't happen in the Big 10.

The Rose Bowl to the other Bowls is kinda like America is to the rest of the World.....

You could drop a giant pile of shit on it and it is still the best, because it says so.

of course a billy c diekman giving pedey puller like yourself thinks that amercica is all talk. take your racism elsewhere. iran would welcome your bigotry but would frown on your homosexuality.

i would like to see Nebraska play in

a) the best bowl possible
b) the best opponent possible.

I think Nebraska is playing a better team in Georgia than they would have against Stanford...but Rose >> Cap One.

now..Cap One >> Outback???..but Georgia better than USC

It was better than Crouch's........

Not better than Frazier's, in my opinion.

That's exactly what I recall of it. The other great runs were games we won, in part because of the great run.

I did say that this was "one" of the greatest runs I've ever seen.

Our Cosgrove like defensive performance does diminish Taylor's run somewhat.
