Committing BYU to any bowl game.

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

IF there aren't enough 6-6 teams

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

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

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

If we win out, yes. if not, no

Pretty sure we are.

We're not.

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.

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

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

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

6-7 teams go before 5-7 teams.

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

10/14/17 1:28pm
Yes, as long as all the 6-6 teams are selected
displacedute

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