[NU Sports] 17+ point leads

[SjT (Stephen J. Truog)]

Wait a minute, I thought a couple weeks ago, y'all were saying that the glut of 6-6 teams making bowl games was part of the wonder, pageantry and tradition of college football. All the extra practice time, a trip for the holidays to somewhere warm (Texas would qualify) and the ending the year part where everyone gets a trophy, er, where everyone has a chance to end up a winner.

Now you say you'd feel bad about limping in to a bowl at 6-6? :)

The rules may suck, but you play 'em as written. Six wins makes us bowl eligible and we're likely headed to Texas to face some Big XII team. It'd be nice to get another win or two (and I agree, especially sweet to wipe that permanent smirk off Bielema's face), but no need to apologize for six wins or feel bad about the bowl game. Wouldn't it get us the extra practice, warm January trip (for Dallas) and all that everyone was saying is great about the bowl system?
