There was a long list of games for other universities, but I just copied the Nebraska-Texas commentary.
"The Don't-Let-the-Door-Hit-You-on-the-Way-Out Bowl"
Texas at Nebraska, Oct. 16
The fans in Lincoln are renowned throughout college football for being among the most gracious to visiting crowds. Even Big Red fans have their limits, though. First, there's the memory of last season's Big 12 championship game, when officials added a second to the clock after Texas quarterback Colt McCoy threw the ball out of bounds on what appeared to be the last play of the game. That set up Texas' game-winning field goal and sent the Longhorns to the national title game. The schools' relationship further disintegrated this offseason when Texas flirted with the Pac-10 and Nebraska joined the Big Ten. Nebraska might like its new conference home and Texas might be happier with its 10-team league and fatter TV contract, but that doesn't make the break-up any cleaner. Did we mention this could be a preview of the final Big 12 championship game - which, to Nebraska's chagrin, will be played in the state of Texas?
