And how about Jeff Brohm? He could have gone to Alabama last year. Now he's the offensive coodinator for his hometown team. Obviously he has success with the job, it will be a spring-board to a head coaching job in the not-to-distant future. It's kind of ironic that he gets the job now that his brother is gone.

Meanwhile, Kentucky is going back to the Music City Bowl. Not exactly a big thrill for 'Cats fans who had much higher hopes for their team. But the match-up with FSU should generate more interest. Rich Brooks vs. Bobby Bowden. How about that for 2 coaches with "experience".

And IU fans have a long trip to make for the Hoosiers first bowl since 1993. They are in the Insight Bowl in Arizona against Oklahoma State. Somewhere Terry Hoeppner is smiling.
