[Husker] Post season projections

[Mike Jaixen]

The MAC Championship Game will be held this Thursday
at Detroit's Ford Field, not in Athens, OH.

Meanwhile, Scout.com is reporting that Iowa State will
announce Brian Kelly of Central Michigan tomorrow
evening as their new head coach.

The Scout.com report also mentions Pelini being
annoyed, but it's unclear whether it was because
Pelini was interested in the job but not considered,
or if Pelini wasn't interested in the job but was
being bothered by reporters about it.
