It's not that both teams are garbage, it's that both have completely given up. How could you possibly get a read on what team will show up? The A&M players know Franchione's gone after the season, and Nebraska just fired their AD, the D-coordinator's not far behind, and Callahan's job is also in serious jeopardy. It seems to me that if you're playing a side in this game, you're basically betting on which team you feel has packed it in less.
The winner of this game should play Pitt for the inept coach/no heart championship.
