Bowl people "knew" this on Saturday. Thus one of the problems with Bruce's decision processes.
Also - Arkansas St. was in play for the Liberty Bowl with a team swap with Go Daddy if ISU was not there for Liberty.
Edit: It is not correct to say "Knew" as in 100%, but it was calculated that it was going to happen so Bowls with open slots had to firm up teams and prepare plans for both situations.

You had Kent St sitting at 17 and NIU sitting at 21 going into that game. So basically you are looking at 2 schools, playing each other, that could knock OU out of a spot in the BCS. I don't think it really mattered what the outcome of the game was. If I know this going into the Kent St/NIU game, which he did, I'm not leaving anything to chance.
