[NU Sports] Las Vegas Bowl

[prplehaze at insightbb.com]

One additional thought about the Las Vegas Bowl, we would be playing a Mountain
West team, which is not exactly the same thing as playing a Pac 10 or Big XII
team as we do in El Paso or San Antonio.  Also, as I recall, Las Vegas pays the
minimum $750,000 although that presumably would change if they bumped up to a
Big Ten team.  All things considered, I'd rather go to Vegas for a basketball game.
