[NU Sports] (no subject)

[Jonathan Hodges]

Thankfully the Alamodome, like many other domed stadiums, like the
Metrodome, have gone to FieldTurf, which is infinitely better than the
glorified carpet that is AstroTurf.  I wonder how willing the Alamo Bowl
will be to select NU since the 'Cats visited relatively recently, given the
small number of bowls in NU history.  But, let's wait and see, I suppose -
there's a lot of football left to be played.
