One good part of all this Big 12 mess is that future bowl games could be a lot more interesting. Let's say, in 2015, Missouri and Nebraska are both angling for a spot in a bowl game.
↵They haven't played each other in four years so why not meet in a bowl game?
↵↵↵But what about a rematch, say, in Tempe, Ariz.? The Insight Bowl matches teams from the Big 12 and Big Ten, so who’s to say Missouri and Nebraska can’t eventually rekindle their rivalry at Sun Devil Stadium?
↵Or how about some day reviving Oklahoma-Nebraska in the desert?
↵“We have thought about that,” said Insight Bowl CEO John Junker, “and that’s potentially exciting.”

Yes, the rematches will now be a lot more exciting than the annual game. I imagine Mizzou and Kansas fans would be ready to beat the you-know-what out of Nebraska.
