[Husker] lack of class...?

On the subject of leaving in first stringers to pad their stats, I think I'm more forgiving of this practice than others might be.
It may be an all together different analogy, but I'm going to trot it out anyway.
It's entirely likely that in a week or two the Colts will have the best record in the AFC all knotted up. Will it show a "lack of class" if down they try to win games ) against much weaker opponents (e.g. Jan. 1 against the hapless Cardinals) in pursuit of a 16-0 record? I've seen sports writers who claim that pursuit of 16-0 is a laudable goal and the team should do whatever it can to reach that goal, even if practically speaking wins 14, 15 and 16 mean nothing.
