LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — Nebraska coach Bo Pelini says he’s happy to win the Big 12 North, but winning the conference championship is the only satisfactory outcome for the No. 16 Huskers’ Big 12 farewell tour.
Nebraska’s opponent in next week’s title game in Arlington, Texas, will be decided in Saturday night’s Oklahoma-Oklahoma State game.
The theme for 2010 was to make it back to Cowboys Stadium and win the title that went to Texas last year, when it kicked the winning field goal after one second was put back on the clock.
Running back Rex Burkhead said that game is still on the players’ minds. But quarterback Cody Green said he and his teammates need to forget “vengeance” and concentrate on whichever opponent they play.
