That's the way it's looking.

Still wish the bowls went back to slotting: NOLA gets Sun Belt champ vs. CUSA 2 (or whatever) and let the standings determine bowls.

RE: Number of bowl eligible/ineligible teams
68 eligible with MTSU (Really 70 since Illinois/NW and VU/VTU are elimination matchups next week). I had them as a lock for a while, but they almost screwed that up heading into UTEP next week.

Tennessee is down two scores to Missouri with 10 minutes left. If the Tigers win, Tennessee will have to win at Vandy to get eligible. Kentucky already must win at Louisville SEC wise to get eligible. We could really use a Vandy upset next week.

UAB must win at Southern Miss to get 6 wins, so we should root for USM. Though UT and UAB will be favored in their games, rivalries are tricky.

NOLA will always give preference to the Cajuns, regardless of standings.

One obvious thing about bowl selection .... it's really about $, fan base, the desirability of the programs, and tv ratings, not conference records.

Ironically enough, the New Orleans Bowl is the entire reason we don't have slotting. Under Previous contracts, they had to take our champ Twice in a 4 year period. After the 2011 season and the Cajuns sent 40K or whatever it was to New Orleans, the Bowl fought and got the rule repealed. Meaning they can take whoever they so desire.

Go Daddy has pushed for years that they want the SBC and MAC Champs to play each other. They got it in 2011, but have not had it since. (2012 they lost NIU to the Orange Bowl, and 2013 Detroit got the MAC Champ).

I would not be shocked if our next round of negotiations put something in the contract to allow Go Daddy to pick first some. Especially since NO Bowl is not taking a Sun Belt team in 2019.

RE: Number of bowl eligible/ineligible teams
72 bowl eligible teams right now and 16 others within 1 win of bowl eligibility at 5 wins.

Ga. Southern really has virtually no chance right now.

It appears there will probably be somewhere between 2 on the low side to 6 on the high side bowl eligible teams who will not be bowling this year.

RE: Number of bowl eligible/ineligible teams
Ohio University added another to the picture with their 24-21 victory over Miami tonight.

An interesting tidbit I noticed: The playoff committee placed Boise State and Marshall in their top 25 tonight, with the Broncos one spot ahead of the Thundering Herd. This gives them a leg up for the access bowl. Boise has games left against Utah State (9-3) and (probably) Fresno State (6-6), while Marshall has Western Kentucky (6-5) and Louisiana Tech/Rice (8-4). It'll be interesting to see if this ranking holds up.

It would be so ironic if Boise goes to the big bowl over an undefeated Marshall after all the big games Boise got left out of while they were undefeated.

Doubt Ohio gets in or Akron should they win - the MAC will likely get their 5 automatic bids in only.

RE: Number of bowl eligible/ineligible teams
Interesting note, if Fresno wins against Hawaii, they'll have to play in the MWC TItle game against Boise. Lose that game, and Fresno is bowl ineligible at 6-7, though they would go to a bowl before GS or App.

Navy and the Virginia-Virginia Tech winner will be the only ones getting on the bowl list today. Akron fell out due to their loss to Kent State. Buffalo won but snow will keep them from qualifying with a 5-6 record.

RE: Number of bowl eligible/ineligible teams
Keep a very close eye on the Access Bowl situation out of the G5. This wont effect Georgia Southern's shot, but it will have a major impact in terms of who the extra teams we are competing against are, and what bowls are open.

Marshall's loss at home to a mediocre WKU team today by a basketball score changes the access bowl scenario. We can assume directly that Marshall is probably out of the Access Bowl picture, and we know for a fact that Boise is in the Drivers seat now as the only ranked G5 team.

However, the team that was going to pass Boise if they slipped in 2 loss Colorado State lost to Air Force today. That loss means the Rams cannot win the MWC Title, and are out of access bowl contention. Boise has a tricky game against Utah State, who hasn't looked back since their loss to Arkansas State. If the Aggies pull offr the win in Boise, they will win their division of the MWC, and would advance to play either Fresno, Hawaii?!?!, or San Diego State in the title game.

Then things get weird.

If Fresno beats Hawaii tomorrow, they will be 6-6 and Bowl eligible...However, they will also win their division and play in the MWC Title game. Lose the title game, and Fresno finishes 6-7, and is no longer bowl eligible.

The Same story goes if Fresno drops to Hawaii, but SDSU wins. The Aggies would be 6-6, but would have to play the title game, where a loss would make them ineligible.

BUT, if Hawaii beats Fresno, SDSU loses to San Jose, and UNLV beats Nevada, then 5-8 Hawaii would be playing in the MWC Title game. If they, by some miracle, then won that game, they would be automatically eligible for a bowl at 6-8 thanks to the provision that an ineligible conference champion can apply for a Waiver of bowl eligibility, one that usually gets granted. (I can hear Georgia Southern fans from here)

Now...If Utah State wins the MWC, then we have a very fun situation where the MWC and AAC Champ both have 3 losses, and suddenly a 2 loss NIU out of the MAC Could re-enter the picture, along with a 1 loss Marshall. In the end...we could see flipping Memphis playing in an access bowl

And then aliens invade and the world explodes.

Sorry, you have a slight miscalculation there. San Diego State and Fresno State are tied at 4-3 in conference. If SDSU wins and FSU loses, SDSU will be 7-5 overall and playing in the championship game. If you have a 3 or 4 way tie in the division at 4-4, Fresno wins all the tiebreaks because of their win over Nevada.

RE: Number of bowl eligible/ineligible teams
By the lookof things we will have enough teams for bowls.

74 are eligible with more than a few 5 winners having great odds today including Tennessee, Cal and winner of Illini/Northwestern. Uab and temple still have ok odds of making it. It's going to be close but I see 79 teams eligible bot including transition teams

Not anymore. NCAA changed that this past year when the clarified the bowl pecking order. A 6-7 team with a CCG loss can only be selected for a bowl after all 6-6 and above teams have been placed.
