NIU knocked Oklahoma out at about 3:00 on Sunday


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.

I don't know. NIU had a weak schedule and you never know what the voter's agendas are. It was possible, but I think most people thought they would be at #17, and just outside the BCS.
