Coastal Carolina (FCS transition)

While it appears Coastal will probably have 7 losses. If they go 6-6, technically, the become the last bowl eligible team if there are not enough 6-6 teams. There are placed before 5-7 APR teams. The term for FCS transition should be Conditional Bowl Eligible. Similar to 6-7 teams in the regular season who I believe get placed over the FCS transition team.
Just for fun, here are the teams needing the magic number 5 for APR Teams. I removed the teams that have made it (UCF, Mich, etc)

1 Northwestern University 995 - Needs 2 wins
2 U.S. Air Force Academy 995 - Needs 3 wins
3 Duke University 992 Needs 1 wins
4 University of Minnesota, Twin Cities 992 Needs 2 wins
5 Vanderbilt University 992 Needs 2 wins
6 University of Louisville 988 Needs 1 wins
7 Rice University 984 Needs 2 wins
8 University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign 984 Needs 3 wins
9 University of Maryland, College Park 984 Needs 3 wins
10 Georgia Institute of Technology 983 Needs 2 wins
11 Middle Tennessee State University 983 Needs 2 wins
12 Indiana University, Bloomington 982 Needs 3 wins
I have San Jose State with 7 losses.
