To give Saturday more focus, not all 6-6 teams are anywhere near the same in terms of being threats to take an open bowl spot from us. The P-4 schools — Auburn, Sparta, NC State — are. Some of the G-5 schools —UL Monroe and North Texas for example — are much less of a threat to take an open bowl slot from us.

That having been said, I’m not worrying about any of this until after our game with UMass is over.

3 more teams in the running that could mean 3 eligible staying home

+10.5 Auburn
+10 ULM
+3 NCSt
+3 Cincinnati
+2.5 AppSt
+1 Coastal

-1 Kansas
-1.5 Mich St
- 3 New Mexico

just curious. Has there ever been a year where a team was eligible for a bowl and had to stay home?

Cincy and Applesauce State down at the half. We're gonna find out if TCU has 30 more minutes of cold weather football left in them.

The upside to this is that KU, Auburn & Mich St lost. Our chances are probably better to get a bid over G5 bowl-eligible schools rather than P4 bowl-eligible schools.
