In Staples' latest Power Rankings, he suggests the following: Nothing would satisfy the people in red more than watching Big 12 commissioner Dan Beebe hand a trophy to coach Bo Pelini and athletic director Tom Osborne on Saturday.

Or maybe Pelini and Osborne should just celebrate with the team in the locker room and leave a note on the podium. "Dear Dan, Please ship the trophy to the following address: Big Ten Headquarters, 1500 West Higgins Road, Park Ridge, IL 60068. Hugs and kisses, Bo and Tom."

I also like idea posted here somewhere earlier in the week about sending flowers to Beebe at the Big 12 HQ after Saturday's game. The local FTD-connected flower shop will make a killing!!
