Doesn't matter because the computers don't like them.  That's only an improvement of two spots over their last Coaches Poll ranking.  NIU was ranked 23rd average by the computers last week, I don't see them picking up enough ground there to reach 16 overall in the BCS.

Any other time, I'd love to see the Big 12 fill as many BCS spots as possible.  But, those arrogant sooners were planning on trying to get an exemption and go to the Sugar Bowl instead of Fiesta "when" they won the Big 12 because they'd been to Glendale too many times.  I hope they get the shaft big time!

Can't say for sure by my guess is that it has something to do w/ automatic tie ins, and conferences not being able to uphold them. That, and these lesser bowls are probably more than happy to jump at a team from a BCS conference.

How would we know if it did? You'd probably have to review the oral traditions of all the tribes and find if any suddenly were mysteriously rid of their enemies at any point in their history.  Then again, maybe the bison circuit through the Great Plains avoided the tornado season for the various areas, since their behavior was probably set by a much longer period of environmental patterns.

Liberty Bowl has said they took ISU because they are trying to get their foot in the door with the Big12 for the next round of bowl agreements in 2014.  Almost all those agreements go in 4 year cycles together with this cycle set to expire when the current BCS contract expires.  Also, if ISU didn't want to reply Tulsa they could have turned the bid down.  The Liberty Bowl is going to pamper them as much as possible to impress the Big12. 

Also, how stupid does the LaTech administration have to be?  If The Liberty Bowl said they were going to take you, why didn't they extend you a bid?  You turned down the Independence Bowl because you were waiting on the Liberty Bowl.  If the Liberty Bowl said they were going to take you, why didn't you ask them why they weren't officially doing it with a bid?  Don't try to blame the Liberty Bowl for misleading you if you were too stupid to see that they weren't offering you a bid.

IMO you can split bowl matchups into three groups:

Blowouts
Nail-biters/toss-ups
Everything else (usually 1-2 TD games that either appear closer than they were, or vice versa)

Blowouts:
Louisville-Florida
Nevada-Arizona
Purdue-Oklahoma State
Northern Illinois-Florida State
SMU-Fresno State
East Carolina-Louisiana Lafayette
Minnesota-Texas Tech
North Carolina State-Vanderbilt
Ohio-Louisiana Monroe
Georgia Tech-USC
Bowling Green-San Jose State
Central Michigan-Western Kentucky

Nail-biters/toss-ups:
Rutgers-Virginia Tech
South Carolina-Michigan
Baylor-UCLA
Rice-Air Force
Pittsburgh-Mississippi
Wisconsin-Stanford
TCU-Michigan State
Texas-Oregon State
West Virginia-Syracuse
Mississippi State-Northwestern
Oregon-Kansas State
Texas A&M-Oklahoma

Everything else:
Washington-Boise State
Ball State-UCF
Kent State-Arkansas State
Toledo-Utah State
Tulsa-Iowa State
Duke-Cincinnati
San Diego State-BYU
Navy-Arizona State
Clemson-LSU
Nebraska-Georgia
Notre Dame-Alabama
