Absolutely.  Excellent point.  Until we actually beat a South team
(Baylor not withstanding), and can regularly make South teams worry
about facing the Huskers, we ain't back despite the national
perception.  We're much better now and we should be threatening to the
rest of the North teams, but remember where we were when this Big XII
conference was formed.  To me its less about challenging for the MNC,
its more about threatening to be the Big XII conference champ on an
annual basis.  If we face Texas in two years (2010) and Texas isn't
looking forward to that game, I'm satisfied.
