Well... at least my Illini are in the top 10 in one category.

Navy playes 13 games, they played @Hawaii

Troy wins and is #27 bowl eligible team.

with Hawaii at 6 wins right now- only need 50 more teams to not have any APR teams...…

So FSU really needs 6 wins. Thanks Jimbo.

updated thru tonight's action...

Got 28 teams Bowl Eligible now, plus Hawaii with 6 wins and eligible thru the 6-7 way before we go 5-7.... So need 49 teams to avoid 5-7 teams going.....

Have 1 team totally knocked out in Ole Miss due to Probation....

Have 1 team who is transitioning in Liberty...

So of the 130 teams we have we have 28 BE, 1 out. Have 7 teams with 7 losses already. So 36 teams we know their situation. Have 94 teams left to determine(needing 49 BE)

We will get at least 1 more Bowl eligible team tomorrow(Miami/BC play). Also could get La Tech and Utah BE. Wyoming could be the 8th team knocked out.

updated for Friday's action....

Got 31 teams bowl eligible now. 1 out. 7 teams with 7 losses. So 39 teams we know their situation. 91 to go(needing 46 BE to avoid 5-7 teams going).

Will get guaranteed 1 Bowl Eligible team- NC State Syracuse winner...

To date there are 88 teams with four or more wins. 37 are currently bowl eligible. Another 20 can become eligible this week. Last year after Week 10 there were 50 eligible.

We might not need any 5-7 teams this year.

IMHO opinion I think if there aren't enough 6-6 teams eligible they should cancel 1-2 of the lowest payout games.

What about all the planning that goes into the game? Who would want to get into the bowl business if that happens. Natural disasters are one thing, having 2 5-7 teams is another

updated thru yesterday....

37 bowl eligible right now. Hawaii still stuck on 6 wins....

Have 4 teams totally out now. Another 10 with 7 losses.

So 51 teams we know their fate one way or the other. With the other 79 teams need 41 teams to be bowl Eligible.

Thank Bowden. He was the one setting him up for replacement.

Updated after 2 games on Friday....

40 bowl eligible now. Hawaii stuck on 6 wins.

Have 6 teams now totally out. 9 teams with 7 losses.

So right now we have 55 teams known. Have 75 teams left to get 38 teams eligible.

Updated thru last night. Got now 65 teams that are up to 5 wins. Another 23 teams not including Liberty have 4 wins. Odds are really good that we won't need any 5 win teams this year and Liberty won't have any shot.....

so update right now
48 Bowl Eligible
10 probation or 8+ losses
14 teams with 7 losses
72 teams known right now
58 teams left

30 teams needed out of 58 teams

There are now 76 teams either eligible or within one game of eligibility. USC could bring that up to 77 by the end of the night. With three weeks to go, it's not looking good for 5-7 teams.

App State makes bowl eligibility for the fourth time in the four years it is eligible to be...well, eligible.

yeah it's not looking that great- but still no lock by any stretch...... 30 of 60 teams that aren't either bowl eligible or eliminated need to get to the 6 wins.....

Also I would say that the loss of the 1 game really has helped things a lot. Getting 78 teams instead of 80 is a lot easier....

48 teams are in. 13 Teams will be in due to games between 5 win teams (If math is correct). That should make 61 teams with 17 needed. I did not make attempt predicting what should be Gimme Games.
