I posted some possibilities in on pages 3 or 4. There will be a flurry of them out tomorrow morning, but we'll know tomorrow night anyway.

I'm betting Foster Farms Bowl against PAC 12.

Husker fans will travel well to California. Not to mention the transplants already there.

Generally Pin Stripe would get to pick before Foster Farms. However Pin Stripe has a clause.....

"Goal is to have eight different teams participate in eight years, with minimum of six different teams over eight‐year agreement"

Penn St played in it last season. So I think they reach past them and take Indiana.

I found some Bowl projections - so far, 3 are Foster Farms: Huskers vs UCLA, Huskers vs Washington St, Huskers vs USC. and one for Armed forces Bowl Huskers vs Air Force in Fort Worth. Music City Bowl Huskers vs Arkansas in Nashville <---- Saw this twice.

Up until the end of the 3rd quarter, we had run the ball more than we'd passed it. We were not effective running the ball, and needed to throw the ball to get back in it. But go ahead and continue making moronic statements about how this staff doesn't want to run the ball.

That pick six that your boy threw was sure helpful in the first half. Now THAT was moronic! Also, why the hell didn't Janovich get a few carries? Oh I know why... Because west coast Riley wasn't smart enough to see that allowing up for grabs to pass for almost 50 times was the actual moronic and losing way to go. I would kind of understand the weirdness of passing 50 times per game if we had a QB that wasn't erratic and reckless, and if we had the best defense in the history of Nebraska football.

One more thing, if this staff really wanted to run the ball, Nebraska would have won the Illinois game and Purdue games for sure.

Exorbitaint didn't even watch the game. Just looked at the stats afterwards and started yelping about Tommy.

I watched the game and I even said before the game that the key to the game was whether your boy would throw up for grabs passes and how many would get picked off. Predictably, his picks were the main reason why Nebraska lost, and that's on Riley for not reining him in. Evidently you didn't watch the game to see this.

We really didn't run the ball that well. But we sure did run the shit out of it.

There's countless times that Osborne would run run run run run the ball even if the yards were tough, and guess what? He won way more games that way than some west coast prick passing the ball 50 times per game.

I would like to see a matchup with USC again, and the Foster Farms bowl would be especially nice because it's a Saturday night game.

On the other hand, seeing a matchup with Arkansas or Air Force would be nice since Nebraska hasn't played them since the sixties.

I got banned for jokingly changing someone's quote last year, but there's a double standard here, and always has been.
