Steven M. Sipple: If you're a Nebraska fan, you can enjoy UCF's bowl without overreacting

If you're a Nebraska football fan, you're standing on the sidelines -- except, of course, that your new head coach, Scott Frost, has one last go-round at Central Florida, which plays Auburn on Monday in the Peach Bowl in Atlanta (11:30 a.m., ESPN). For Husker fans experiencing inner turmoil in terms of how much to invest emotionally in the bowl -- and how much to read into the result -- I offer unsolicited advice.

If Nebraska, er, Central Florida were to upset Auburn, the correct response for Husker fans would be to sell it as a remarkable coaching job by Frost and his assistants, all of whom are coming to Lincoln.
