Washington gives the Pac-10 a boost

The Washington Huskies get it done as they knock off Nebraska, 19-7, at the Holiday Bowl in San Diego last night.

The Pac-10 can still send a message to the other conferences around the country with a Stanford victory over Virginia Tech at the Orange Bowl in Miami on Jan. 3 and a victory by Oregon on Jan. 10 at Glendale in the BCS title matchup with Auburn.
