In context, yes it is. Would also depend how you lose those last 2. If offense still keeps looking better with Dana it will lead to future excitement.It's great that NU finally makes a bowl, but really, is 6-7 that much better than 5-7?
Our team beats Iowa and you know the Relia quest bowl in Tampa would love a Nebraska Oklahoma match. I could see Nebraska play Oklahoma in the Music City Bowl also, it would fill up the stadium and infuse $$$$$$$$ to the cities. You play in Phoenix it's not going to create as much buzz. OU is much more appealing than Texas Tech and the heads of the bowls know this.
