JJ Husker Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 2 hours ago, M.A. said: If a team gets an invite in this scenario do they really want to go with short notice. My guess is many would decline. There are several reasons why it wouldn't be practical. It might be workable for some. The only team it would make sense for is the opponent of the next team that has to withdraw from their already scheduled bowl game due to Covid (and I would bet there will be another one before this is done). At least they would be physically and mentally prepared. Would still have some significant logistic issues of changing travel plans. Quote Link to comment

Not many would want to play without any prep time etc. No fun time prebowl either. Risky for lots of reasons. No fan travel. Families unable. Etc. even a week is sketchy. Quote Link to comment
krc1995 Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 Just would like to point out that we could have gone bowling last year, but we declined. Not sure if Kansas declined. Just trying to take the sting out of that fat fact of realism. we should play Kansas in the “we’ve finally hit the rock bottom” bowl Quote Link to comment

Stone Cold Posted December 24, 2021 Author Share Posted December 24, 2021 Yea no need to play, better to sit it out, ice up and prep up for next year. I mean my life doesnt change if they play a bowl game or not so im sure there future careers dont involve playing extra games, getting extra reps and exposure. I mean what football player would want to do that. 1 Quote Link to comment

Guy Chamberlin Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 So what I hear people saying is that if Nebraska had won two more games, we could have been Rutgers. Ouch. 2 2 Quote Link to comment
San Diego Husker Posted December 25, 2021 Share Posted December 25, 2021 3-9 NU to bowl game? not a chance, most of the players have gone home, train for NFL, gone to other teams, missing two coaches, this list goes on... Not to mention we needed to be at least 5-7 to get a bowl invite in special circumstances like this.. 1 Quote Link to comment
