Hear me out for a few minutes.
A while back I wrote a post that my dream would be to see Oklahoma and Nebraska play the Game of the Century III only because of it's tradition. However they have parted ways since divisions are now the structure of the Big XII.
With that said, I try to keep up with college football history news and current events. What crossed my mined that Oklahoma and Nebraska never played for a championship. They had the Game of the century and Game of the century II. They played this game to respect each other team. They didn't like us and we didn't like them.
However....I was reading in the archives of college football that...
I read that Oklahoma and Nebraska DID actually have ONLY one championship game. That was in the 1979 Orange Bowl. The 1979 Orange bowl was the one and only game that Nebraska and Oklahoma battle for a championship.
Now here, we are in the present..I logged on to huskers.com website and see what could happen. Nebraska is picked for the North and Oklahoma is picked for the South in the championship game. It could happen.....
Then it finally hit me....we are in a new century. Hmmmm
