I will admit that i dont follow football very closely

but theres actually a bowl called the Bad Boy Mowers bowl? lol

Based off these first 3 they all feel La Tech will beat UTSA as well as they like UNT going to New Mexico. Personally I don’t see UNT playing there as it would have them playing a bowl game 2 weeks after playing in the CUSA CG.

The full name is Bad Boy Mowers Gasparillo Bowl. There’s also a Dollar General one.

I like the FAU vs USF match-up, regardless of which bowl it is.

UNT has few options. If they go to the AF bowl they’ll play Army for the 4th time in two years. NO bowl would be easy travel but conference will want that for USM, UAB or Tech (if they win).

I hope they send Western out of the country or out of the lower 48....there is hardly any fan interest this year. While Western might have problems with low attendance at home our fans traveled as well or better than most in this conference for our 3 bowls in the USA. Easily had 7k that drove to Detroit the day after Christmas in a snow storm that dropped 6 to 12 inches from Louisville on up the day (starting early morning lasting all day) of the game. Around 10k to Miami and over that last year in Boca.

1500 would be pushing it to a Fla bowl and maybe 2500 to the Dollar General bowl or New Orleans and 250-300 out west.

Must have been a typo. UTSA should be the preference for the Armed Forces.

Agreed about the winner of next week's ODU/MT game staying home. And yeah, the Bad Boy Mowers Bowl is just... wow.

I hope so...

Sagarin Predictor shows exactly 78 teams in with 6 wins.

Teams by conference (in/projected) with 70 teams in and 39 out right now:
AAC 6/6
ACC 8/9
Big 12 7/7
Big Ten 7/8 (8 guaranteed)
C-USA 8/10 (9 guaranteed)
Independents 2/2
MAC 6/6
MWC 6/6
Pac 12 7/9 (9 guaranteed)
SEC 9/9
SBC 4/6

Georgia Tech should have rescheduled a 12th game three weeks ago like Florida State did when it fell out of the ACC Coastal race. It does not deserve to get a waiver unless there are under 78 6-win teams. Especially considering it probably wasn't going to beat UCF anyway.

Games to watch for bowl eligibility (teams in bold predicted to qualify)

Georgia Southern at Louisiana-Lafayette (needs to win 1 of 2)
Florida State (must win 2) at Florida
UTSA at Louisiana Tech (must win)
Old Dominion at Middle Tennessee (winner in, loser out)
Idaho at New Mexico State (must win 2)
Indiana at Purdue (winner in, loser out)
Cal at UCLA (winner in, loser out)
Colorado at Utah (winner in, loser out)
Georgia at Georgia Tech (must win)
Ohio at Buffalo (must win)
Duke (must win) at Wake Forest
Wisconsin at Minnesota (must win)
UNLV (must win) at Nevada
Temple (must win) at Tulsa
Texas Tech (must win) at Texas
Tulane (must win) at SMU
Arkansas State at Louisiana-Monroe (must win 2)

Bad Boy Mowers Bowl is the renamed St. Petersburg Bowl.

Previous sponsors included Beef O Brady's, Magicjack and Bitcoin.
