Like most (all?) people on this list, I prefer Nebraska facing OU in the
champion game instead of OSU (I was going to say so yesterday, but
didn't want to jinx the Sooners). It's seldom good to give a team you
already beat (OSU) a rematch and it's fitting (great, actually) to end
Nebraska's last year in the Big 12 with a final OU-NU (Big 8)
championship game.
I bet the media likes this outcome as well. Do you think the media will
hype the OU-Nebraska rivalry and all those great (though sometimes
painful) games?!!!
Another, minor reason I prefer OU is that Nebraska matches up better
against them. Though OU has a potent offense (12th in total offense)
their rush offense is ranked #75 while OSU's is #31. On defense, they
are better than OSU in total and scoring, but worse in rush defense (#63
vs #39).
GO BIG RED!
