2) The Cotton Bowl probably is the most prestigious non-BCS bowl
3) Dallas is in the heart of Missouri's secondary recruiting country (and kansas', too)
4) Two of the Heisman finalists will be playing in the Cotton Bowl, which will attract a ton of national attention. What's the national storyline for Va Tech/kansas?
5) Missouri will have a great presence at the bowl game.

No. 3 is probably the most important. That's the thin reed I've been trying to hang onto this evening.
