[Husker] Final Big 8 championship!

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!
Andy
