It would prevent you from openly gloating about it, especially towards the team that was screwed... but let's say for a minute that the Jayhawks athletic department did nothing wrong, and that it was just a horrible decision by the BCS selection morons.... Cotton Bowl or BCS bowl, it's still a huge accomplishment by a team that has never won their own division and has never won bowl games in consecutive years.
I couldn't do Perkins' job, because I see it like you.... it's 100% on the field. I couldn't sell my team over Mizzou and then feel good holding the $6 million check. But Perkins' job is to make money, and his sales pitch was all about money.
Like I said, Kansas deserved a good bowl this year, regardless of what some here are saying. From a fan perspective, I'm going to enjoy it, because they deserve a good bowl; even if the business side makes it unfair.
