There's a decent chance the players already know, based on last night pretty much going as foreseen. Obviously it's not officially unveiled, but I wouldn't be shocked if the administration and team already know where we're going.
Foster Farms exec said last night at the PAC championship that the only "realistic options" for them were NU, Minny, and Indiana. Said they would take Nebraska in that scenario. I just think the bowls have all been selected and negotiated at this point, the announcement show is just that...for show.
We'd definitely have a better shot of winning vs AF, but from an exposure standpoint being in Cali and playing at night on a weekend will help a lot, providing we don't get our doors blown off.
For as much crap as we gave the pass D all year though, they certainly have improved. Now whether that is an indictment on the competition or actual improvement is up for debate.
