RE: APR Bowl outlook
You can take the Pac-12 teams off the list if you like, because the conference now has a rule requiring a team to have at least 6 wins to play in a bowl game.

Good point, and given that two of the top five are PAC teams, that could come in to play.

Though I'm starting to think it won't. Up until last week, it looked to me that there were going to be several bowls looking for teams. But now, not so much. We may yet again have more straight-up eligible teams than we do bowl games.

Bowl eligible 63
7 loss teams 10
totally eliminated 15

Got 15 spots left, with 32 teams left fighting for those spots to avoid 7 loss teams making bowls.

If you see any mistakes let me know.... This was fun last year I remember... and this year is tighter I think.

42 teams left (130-63-10-15=42)

IIRC, the MAC has 5 bowl tie-ins and now has 5 bowl-eligible teams. So if any other MAC teams become eligible, and it appears that two or even three could, the MAC will be scrambling and some might get left out. The MAC does have a conditional spot in the Detroit bowl if the B1G or ACC don't fill their spots.

IIRC, the MAC is vulnerable to this, e.g., last year Miami-Ohio was eligible but did not play a bowl game.

WE have 26 teams right now with 6 losses.... So very possible we're going to need some 7 loss teams(meaning ALL MAC teams would get in that are bowl eligible).

Yes, it could tip that way. For a long time I've thought it would, that for the first time since 2016 we will have more bowl slots than we have formally-eligible teams, such that we would be dipping in to the 7-loss pool.

But now I'm not so sure. Seems like things have tightened up a bit, more teams are becoming eligible than it appeared a few weeks ago. So we will just have to see.

I'm thinking 1-3 surplus teams this year the way things are going.

Yes, and if so, you have to figure MAC teams are prime candidates to get left out in the cold.

I read an article today in a Buffalo sports page talking about Buffalo's win last night, and it seems like the Buffalo coaches are not assuming they are going bowling. The coaches were quoted about the need to get a 7th win in their final game vs Bowling Green to 'convince' someone to give them a bowl bid.

Was gonna to a big analysis but it's too complicated.

I think Buffalo hits 7 wins and locking themselves in beating a 2W Bowling Green team.
A banged-up Toledo team loses to Central Michigan and gives them 6-6, not locking them in.

That's all I can guess for now.

But figure if UB wins, that'd be 4 teams w/ 7+. If my UB/UT predictions hold true, you figure 2 of the other 4 bubble teams hit 6-6. So I think no team would get left out in that scenario.

Does the MAC have that kind of rule, that if there are more teams than bids that overall record, not conference record, determines it? That would be strange IMO if they did.

As it stands, Buffalo is one of six teams that could finish with a 5-3 conference record or better. In that case, if the Pizza Bowl doesn't open up and the MAC has only its five dedicated bowl bids, what is the TB procedure?

I'm under the impression it was overall record. Example, last year WMU went at 7-5 (5-3). Miami stayed home 6-6 (6-2)

It's very unlikely 6 teams finish 5-3 or better.

Some will get to 6-2, some will fall to 4-4.

I don't think Buffalo has anything to fear if they hit 7.

That would seem to clinch it. Weird, though.

All I have heard tell of is a rule that a division winner cannot be left home while a non-division winner goes. If true, that would explain why Miami was confidently stating that they were going to a bowl game when they clinched the Eastern division and 6 wins.

Colorado St loses to get to 7 losses....

Also keep in mind, 1 of the teams I have is possible is Missouri which is appealing.... If they lose the appeal, we're down to needing 13 and having 35 left. With 24 of the 35 having 6 losses right now....

IIRC, that is the correct way to frame it as of now. That's because I believe that in the screwy ways of the NCAA, once a school files an appeal, they are presumptively eligible. The NCAA has to affirmatively deny their appeal for it not to be so.

So as long as radio silence is being maintained from NCAA HQ on the appeal, they are as eligible as any other school, meaning they just need six wins.
