I don't think someone can say that Texas doesn't deserve a Cotton Bowl berth but I think 2 things happened, one is that Texas is not their best right now and the Cotton wants the best possible team and in their eyes they think it is us right now, not sure after last night but hang with me. Second, Texas has played back to back Rose Bowls, their fans spent a good deal of money and effort for those two trips and they may be a little burnt out on something other then a BCS Bowl. We on the other hand will bring a lot of folks to the Cotton Bowl, stay in their hotels, and eat in their restaraunts and they know this, for them, in terms of economics we are the safer bet.
