Rivals pre-season bowl projections (talk about going out on a limb!) has
NU vs NIU in the Little Caesars Pizza Bowl.

I honestly have to say that I would consider 2011 a real letdown if 
that's where we wind up in a bowl game, and saying that shows just 
how far we have progressed as a team!

But at least they do project the Big Ten as having two BCS slots again,
Wisconsin in the Rose Bowl against Oregon and Nebraska in the Fiesta Bowl.
(Nebraska is projected against Texas A&M, which could get exciting,
considering the rather one-sided officiating in the A&M game last year.)
