Among the BCS bowls, the Fiesta has last choice among at-large participants to pair with its anchor team.
If Boise State (9-0) finishes 12-0 and earns an automatic berth in a BCS bowl (very likely), the Broncos figure to remain unclaimed in the at-large pool until the very end, when they'll be shipped to the Fiesta Bowl to meet the Huskers.
If this is the case I like NU's chances! Because we already have 3 losses I would much rather play Boise State than the other powerhouse teams in the BCS. Next year bring em' on, but this year let's beat up on a (relative) softie if we can.
Here's to hoping we take the Big XII!
