[Husker] what happened to the Cotton Bowl?

[Andy Knipp]

IIRC, Texas Stadium is in a dry county (or it used to be)

Still I think it would be a good place for a bowl,  The SWC
troubles of 80s and early 90s hurt.

just an idle (and innocent) question: why isn't the Cotton Bowl a major
bowl?  When I lived in Houton many years ago, the impression I got was that
the actual Cotton Bowl stadium was too old / too small.  If so, why note
move the Cotton Bowl (game) moved to the Cowboys' field ?  Didn't the Sugar
Bowl move to the Superdome?  besides, don't OU and TU still play in the
actual Cotton Bowl stadium?
