Bowl scenario
3 teams have already qualified:
App 7-1
Louisiana 6-2
Ga St 6-2
2 more spots open and maybe more.
For the others:
Ga Southern 5-3. 4 games left— at Troy and Ark St and home vs ULM and Ga St. Need 1 more win. Seems very likely
Ark St 5-4. 3 games left. Home vs Coastal and Ga Southern and at USA. Need 1 more win. Seems like a lock
Coastal Carolina 4-4. 4 games left. Home vs Louisiana and Texas St and at Ark St and ULM. Need 2 wins. Seems like a reasonable chance.
ULM 3-5. 4 games left. Home vs Ga St and Coastal and at Ga Southern and Louisiana. Need 3 wins. Going to be tough to do that.
Troy 3-5.4 games left. Home vs Ga Southern and App and at Texas St and Louisiana. Need 3 wins. Tough task for Troy
Texas St 2-6. 4 games left. Home vs USA and Troy and at App and Coastal. Need all 4 wins. Very unlikely
USA. Maybe next year

RE: Bowl scenario
Looks like 6 this year for 5 spots. Which leaves the question of who between coastal and Astate has to hope an outside bowl comes open

RE: Bowl scenario
McMurphy at CBSSports says there may be as many as 4-5 P5 bowl spots unfilled— at least by his estimation right now. If true likely 6 Belt teams go bowling if 6 get eligible

Exactly. Everyone will have a spot this year.

RE: Bowl scenario
The MAC could have a glut of bowl-eligible teams this season. They have 8 teams with at least 4 wins, and 3 more with 3 wins. That conference is basically Akron at the bottom at almost everyone else is about even.

a redemption game against WMU at a bowl game would be the perfect ending to this season.

Considering the Camelia bowl is the only bowl inside 13 hours from a MAC school... It's very unlikely.
In a year where some new teams go bowling though, Ball State, Miami, and CMU have some reinvigurated fan bases... They may travel okay.
Teams like Toledo, Ohio and WMU may not care, pending a Championship to put wind back in the sails.
UB and EMU are the other likely bowl eligible teams.

RE: Bowl scenario
With all the love ESPN is showing App this year should they win out and if we get six I wonder if ESPN brokers them into a bigger bowl?

It's possible, but 11-2 is the mark to do that. Losing to SC bad may mean a game vs. a high tier CUSA team in NOLA or the MAC Champ in Mobil (gross).

Yeah well your team isn't really in control of that. You need to win out and have both GS and GSU to lose one more which may happen but...

If we win out GSU would be eliminated as we still play them. It would come down to what GS does.

Not so fast. There are going to be P5 spots left empty, yes. But right now we are looking at 80.6 bowl eligible teams for 78 spots overall. I wouldn't assume the Sun Belt would fill the P5 spots. Open spots will probably take from the AAC and MWC first depending on the teams in question.
TeamRankings.com bowl eligibility projection:
P5
ACC -- 7.344
Big 12 -- 6.94
Big Ten -- 8.839
Pac-12 -- 7.172
SEC -- 8.503
G5
AAC -- 7.344
CUSA -- 7.676
MAC -- 7.505
MWC -- 7.55
Sun Belt -- 5.67
Total -- 80.6

Not doing too much research, the playoff teams will likely be B1G, SEC, SEC, ACC. That shifts one or two spots for bowls those conferences play in. The MAC will have three or four 6-6 teams, and the rest 7-5. So if any teams are to be left out it's the MAC FIRST.
But, the MAC has 5 bowls, and the last bowl for the B1G vs. ACC is in Detroit. Footprint wise, if one conference cannot fill that bowl, the MAC is a logical lock for that game and we do have a secondary agreement which brings the MAC to 6 teams. 1, probably 2 should get left out from our bunch.

Yeah a lot is going to depend on which conferences have a surplus and which have a deficit of teams. I was just saying generally if a P5 spot goes to G5, it's going to be AAC and MWC first in most scenarios.

And they still have to come to Jonesboro and host GSU. They can certainly win out, but they won’t be favored too
