We have to go 5-1 to close the season to be bowl eligible. Tom Holmoe is looking like a psychic now for not

6-0, actually

rggee

Shoot, is there another FCS team on our schedule?

SuperTank

10/14/17 1:25pm

UMASS is close...

rggee

10/14/17 1:26pm

Just checked, all FBS opponents. 5-1 to close out the season gets us a bowl game.

SuperTank

IF there aren't enough 6-6 teams

rggee

10/14/17 1:34pm

Which there won't be simply because of the number of bowl games available now.

SuperTank

10/14/17 1:37pm

Maybe. We would also come after 6-7 teams that lost their conference champ game

rggee

10/14/17 1:38pm

Are there usually a lot of 6-6 teams that go to a conference championship game?

SuperTank

10/14/17 1:39pm

I don't know. 1 or 2

rggee

10/14/17 1:41pm

Right. We're not going to a bowl this year, are we?

chilango

If we win out, yes. if not, no

rggee

Not sure BYU would accept a bowl bid for this group

Nat Gas Man

Are we eligible st 6 and 7?

Cougtruth

No

Pretty sure we are.

SuperTank

We're not.

rggee

10/14/17 1:27pm

Yeah, I just looked it up. You can go bowling at 5-7 with an exception. 6-7 is guaranteed if there's an open bowl.

SuperTank

10/14/17 1:28pm

6-7 is not guaranteed. the rule is you have to be .500 or better.

rggee

Yes, they would be

Read the full context. That is under the section of "if some bowls are unfilled"

rggee

10/14/17 1:33pm

25% of teams had non-winning records last season. They nearly had to cancel bowls because there were no available teams

SuperTank

10/14/17 1:38pm

Maybe

rggee

10/14/17 1:38pm

Not guaranteed by any means

rggee

10/14/17 1:39pm

Eligible - Yes, invited - perhaps not. Not "No"

FiveTen-BuckEighty

10/14/17 1:48pm

"Eligible" with an exception, I guess

rggee

Isn’t there a graduation rate tie breaker for under 500 teams?

Cougtruth

10/14/17 2:30pm

6-7 teams go before 5-7 teams.

displacedute

10/14/17 2:35pm

Not normally, but we could get an exception if there aren't enough teams with

chilango

10/14/17 1:28pm

Yes, as long as all the 6-6 teams are selected

displacedute

10/14/17 1:28pm

Only after all the 6-6 or better teams get invites.

I think there are 2 fewer bowl games this year.. we are not going bowling...
