Bowl Eligibility after games of Nov. 9
Bowl Eligibility after 11/9

3 Teams are now Bowl-eligible: Louisiana, Texas St. and WKU

Louisiana: 7-2 overall (4-0 SBC)
Games Left (3): Home (1)-- ULM Away (2): Georgia St. and USA
Wins needed to get bowl eligible: BOWL ELIGIBLE

Troy: 5-5 overall (3-3 SBC)
Games Left (2): Home (1): Texas St. Away (1): Mississippi
Wins needed to get bowl eligible: 1

South Alabama: 3-5 overall (1-3 SBC)
Games Left (4): Home (2): ULM, Louisiana Away (2): Navy. Ga. State
Wins needed to get bowl eligible: 3

Arkansas St.: 5-4 overall (3-1 SBC)
Games Left (3): Home (2): Texas St. and Georgia State Away (1): WKU
Wins needed to get bowl eligible: 1

ULM: 5-5 overall (3-2 SBC)
Games Left: (2) Away (2): USA and Louisiana
Wins needed to get bowl eligible: 1

Texas St: 6-3 overall (2-2 SBC)
Games Left: (3) Home (1): WKU Away (2): Ark. State and Troy
Wins needed to get bowl eligible: BOWL ELIGIBLE

Western Kentucky: 6-4 overall (3-3 SBC)
Games Left: (2): Home (1): Arkansas St. Away (1): Texas St.
Wins needed to get bowl eligible: BOWL ELIGIBLE

Georgia State: 0-9 overall (0-4 SBC)
Games Left: (3) Home (2): Louisiana, South Alabama Away (1) Ark St.
Wins needed to get bowl eligible: Cannot get bowl eligible

Predictions on final records:
Louisiana 10-2
Troy 6-6
South Alabama 5-7
Arkansas St. 7-5
ULM 5-7
Texas St. 7-5
Western Kentucky 7-5
Georgia St. 0-12

3 teams eligible now and if my predictions of future games are right 2 more will become bowl eligible (Ark. St. and Troy). So now I project 5 SBC teams to become bowl eligible.

RE: Bowl Eligibility after games of Nov. 9
So if bowl eligible teams in SBC look like this:

Louisiana 10-2
Arkansas St. 7-5
Texas St. 7-5
Western Kentucky 7-5
Troy 6-6

Which ones would get bowl games?

In that scenario? ULL (NOLa) and Troy (GoDaddy). If another bowl is avialable (doubtful), I could see ArkSt or TxSt getting a chance at one.

two things 1 I don't think TROY gets to six victories and even if they do I see state getting a bid before the Trojans.

I see what you're saying but I can't see GoDaddy choosing ArkSt over Troy. If anything, GoDaddy knows that the NOLa Bowl has figured out the ticket to making money. Choose a team within a couple hours drive and you'll have a packed stadium.

Make sense its all about making money but I would think the SBC would try hard to place State somewhere although that's contingent on TxSt not winning out.

GoDaddy is going to beg and plead for the Cajuns and New Orleans to agree for them to come face the MAC champ. I doubt the Cajuns would agree even if the New Orleans Bowl would release them.

GoDaddy is about match-ups more than ticket sales. They've got enough local support to not sweat it plus ESPN gave them some help in the TV deal to get them to move post-New Year's. They are going to go with whomever they think is the best storyline for ESPN.

You guys seem to be more confident of us getting those other wins than me. Maybe it's because I'm not convinced and been through too many Jekyll/Hyde seasons.

RE: Bowl Eligibility after games of Nov. 9
Small possibility but if we somehow end up 8 and 4 I could see WKU by far being the biggest storyline for GoDaddy Bowl, but I don't think we make it to 8 and 4....If we did get invited, WKU would bring a lot of fans though, Mobile is a lot better than Detroit.......Guarantee loss at home to Ark. St. to finish 7 and 5 is looking more likely for this WKU team...Last 2 games though is a toss up for me, I have no idea on either one.....No offense to Texas St. but I see out of the 5 bowl elig. teams, Texas St.is the one left out..Wildcard is ULM though if they become eligible, but the way it works out I see 5 SB teams bowl eligible with 4 teams in bowl games as of right now...

It will never happen, NOB want let us leave the state and HUD wants to be on the recruiting trail in January. To much money for the NOB to pass up.

I don't see the NO Bowl releasing UL for the GoDaddy Bowl unless our administration requested it. And certainly not for WKU or Texas State.

Dead period was extended so...there is no recruiting trail until after the BCS Title game.

RE: Bowl Eligibility after games of Nov. 9
AAC-5.5 tie-ins, four team bowl eligible (BE), 2 not BE, 1 team at 5 wins, 2 teams with 6 losses
ACC-8 tie-ins, 6 BE, 1 NBE, 4 at 5 wins, 2 at 6 losses
Big 10-8 tie-ins, 7 BE, 2 NBE, no eligible 5-win teams, 1 at 6 losses
Big 12-7 tie-ins, 5 BE, 2 NBE, 1 at 5 wins, 2 at 6 losses
C-USA-5.5 tie-ins, 6 BE, 5NBE, 1 at 5 wins, 1 at 6 losses
Indy - Notre Dame (no specific tie-in), BYU eligible, Navy 5-4, Army NBE
MAC-3 tie-ins, 6 BE, 6NBE, 1 at 6 losses
MWC-7 tie-ins, 3 BE, 3 NBE, 4 at 5 wins, 1 at 6 losses
Pac-12-7 tie-ins, 8 BE, 2 NBE, no teams with 5 wins or 6 losses
SEC-10 tie-ins, 8 BE, 2NBE, 1 at 5 wins, 1 at 6 losses
SBC-2 tie-ins, 3 BE, 1 NBE, 3 at 5 wins, none at 6 loses

Assuming current BCS stanings hold (from 11-3) and that's a big if obviously, Alabama and FSU play in the NC game and Fresno gets a BCS invite. That would leave the SEC and ACC with two BCS bids. Depending on how far #3 Oregon falls from its loss to #5 Stanford, the Pac 12 might get the last at-large bid Oklahoma or Okie State could make the other, since there is no BCS standings pecking order. It won't be the SEC or ACC, since they'd already have two. If the Pac-12 gets the second, then they will not have any teams needing an unaffiliated bowl invite (I don't think their currently not BE teams will get there). If it is the Big 12, then they will have two bowls needing a team to fill, as I don't think they fill all their slots.

Meanwhile, the AAC should fill all their spots and no more. C-USA could do the same or maybe have a surplus if FAU runs the table. It is possible that the Big 10 will miss one. Certainly Army won't make theirs. The SEC looks like it will need one spot filled if Alabama makes the NC and another goes to the Sugar. Only the MAC has a clear surplus of teams versus tie-ins and that will be the SBC's biggest competitor.

If the Big 10 doesn't fill its spot, the SBC will go back to Detroit. If that scenario happens along with one SEC shortage, there is a great possibility of four SBC teams bowling again. As it is, not getting three seems highly unlikely.
