Published December 01, 2006 11:09 am - Sooners' bowl choices down to two John Shinn The Norman Transcript Oklahoma’s bowl options are down to two destinations. The Cotton Bowl announced Wednesday it will take the loser of Saturday’s Big 12 championship game for its Jan. 1 game in Dallas.
The eighth-ranked Sooners (10-2, 7-1 Big 12) face No. 19 Nebraska (9-2, 6-2) at 7 p.m. Saturday at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City, Mo. The winner will receive an automatic bid for the Bowl Championship Series and will appear in the Fiesta Bowl Jan. 1 in Glendale, Ariz. Whichever team falls to the Cotton Bowl will face a Southeastern Conference opponent. The Holiday Bowl, which OU played Oregon in last season, announced it will match Texas A&M against California Dec. 28 in San Diego. Previously, the Gator Bowl had expressed enormous interest in having the Sooners for its Jan. 1 game. It has decided to wait until Sunday to decide whether it will invite a Big 12 or Big East team to Jacksonville, Fla. That decision and the remaining Big 12 bowl pairings therefore will not be known until then. Twice in the next four years the Toyota Gator Bowl has an option to select a Big 12 team, when it does not a Big 12 team will be selected to play in the Sun Bowl.
