When I threw off the shackles of 12 years of Catholic education, I was obliged to heave ND with it.

Plus KSU finally came around....

They haven't turned down their bowl bid.

And I don't expect them to.

Yeah, that was before Willingham was fired. Supposedly they were going to have a meeting to decide whether or not they still want to go though. I can't see them turning it down; it gives the program a little more money and national attention, especially now that there's a coaching vacancy. And the players get a nice little trip out to California. I'd be shocked, and a bit disappointed at this point, if they decided against playing.

Either the info on the morning show was premature... or, I'm a reerun.

Or both... I guess.

I believe that the players were supposed to meet at 1p.m. on Tuesday, but I think there was a time change to today or something.

Either way, it was premature.

Plus, I haven't seen an "confirmed" report of that ND might go or not.

Perhaps the show I was listening to had bad information, but they were stating that the acceptance had been made post-firing.

I'm saying they accepted the bid before Ty got fired, so technically ND still does have the bid, which is probably what the station was reporting.
