We have no tie to Frisco
We have no idea where the champ will go.

Are you sure? Wiki says at large but plans for SBC in 2017 and 2019... it's the old Miami beach bowl.

Id say ditch that Zona computer bowl.
Wiki lies When the original plans were drawn up, the SBC was supposed to fill both Miami and the Bahamas this year, but the G5 leagues abandoned plans for bowls to rotate soon after Probably due to how easy it got at the time to certify a bowl. SBC has 5 bowl tie ins
Plus, the Zona Bowl is now on CBSSN, and I don't know if you've ever seen a bowl on CBSSN, but they do a far better job covering it than ESPN does any of theirs. We played an entire bowl game last year and the word "Alabama" was mentioned exactly one time.
As for whether one of the 3-5's can get eligible. The odds seem to believe so:
USA 3-5: Hosts ULL, AState, plays @ Southern, and @ NMSU South will be favored in two of those four games, leaving the @ NMSU game important
ULL 3-4: @ USA, @ Ole Miss, vs NMSU, vs Southern, @ App. Probably only favored in one game, but with both South and NMSU left, has the ability to steal both
NMSU: 3-5 @ TXST, @ ULL, vs Idaho, vs USA Aggies should be favored in every game the rest of the way, but if they slip up against ULL or USA, it could put those teams in line for a bowl instead.
