Most Iowa folks wanted to go to Nashville so it would made more sense to flip it....but it is what it is.

Then they will miss out. Nashville is awesome. Great music, great BBQ, great night life. Who would not want to go there. If I could afford it I would be there in a second. http://www.visitmusiccity.com/visitors/thingstodo/10things
The options for where you actually stay are unlimited though. When we went to the Capital One bowl we drove from Orlando to Tampa for a day and it was a piece of cake...hour and a half maybe.
No doubt, NU will be well represented in the stands, but the fan base just went from anticipating a holiday Jan. 2 bowl in Florida, to a non-holiday weekday afternoon game in Tennessee. Nashville is a great city, but it's a let down.
Speaking only for myself...I don't really care what day the game is on. The better the opponent the better too but it all comes down to location. When I travel in the winter there's going to be some serious SUN involved.
So you are into neither Country or rock music? They have great venues for both. I have not looked but for your sake they probably have Big band too.
This is a shameless plug. This is my son in laws brewery. Thay have gotten rave reviews and have been the top seller at Bonnaroo the last couple of years and have only been open to the public since February.A shout out to those going to Nashville - visit Bearded Iris Brewing Co. - just across the river from the stadium in Germantown. The best craft beers in the south.

Your point?
Just an opportunity for Tenn. to pay us back for the NC embarrassment we leveled on them years ago.
If you want to be stereotypical, then you're right, Nashville isn't right for you.
Well tell him I will be there for sure.....
GBR!
I do like the match up. Definitely intriguing. Huskers are capable of winning that game. Also capable of losing.
The biggest question will be the weather, of course. Hey, that's where I come in! But there's no guarantee of nice weather in Nashville in late-December. I'll have to wave my magic wand, I suppose.
My point is I won't be spending 1000's to go hang out in 40 degree weather.
Nice matchup, bad location. Essentially a home game for the Vols. I think they'll be more disappointed than Nebraska based on their expectations going into the season. Hopefully we can use that to our advantage.
