I took my wife to San Antonio last year for the Alamo Bowl.  We had 
a *terrific* time!  Enjoyment factors included the weather, being 
part of a SEA of red throughout the area for a couple of days, 
visiting a new area, making some new friends, visiting a few old 
friends, getting away from the routine, and spending some time 
together.  I suspect this year we'll get to enjoy all of these, 
except the weather may not be as nice.  We're definitely pumped.

Speaking of seeing old and making new friends, we would be eager to 
meet any Husker listers that are going to be in Dallas.

I actually like the game time.  To my thinking, it may reduce the 
degree of drunkeness about us.

As I posted a while back, the Cornhuskers had better be better be 
ready for this game or they're going to get their butts handed to 
them.
