    That's a good point. The PAC 10 has six bowl slots with 7 bowl eligible teams so their bowls are covered, plus one will be left out in the cold unless they get to 7 wins. So yes, if Arizona loses out, they will be 6-6 as well. I do think it's more likely that UCLA will lose to USC, rather than Arizona lose to both Arizona State and USC. But at least that gives us another one to watch.

    Good catch Tuff!

    The ACC only has one open slot in the GMAC because the EagleBank Bowl has a contingency agreement with the MAC. The MAC only has 3 tie-ins but they already have 4 bowl eligible teams (Central Michigan 9-2, Temple 9-2, Ohio 8-3, Northern Illinois 7-4) so the Eaglebank slot will be filled by a MAC team. _
    ESPN shows em as not eliminated from bowl competition. Richmond was a loss. They have only one win against a non BCS team. I think it counts. Everything Ive seen has em still eligible.

    Makes sense about the Eaglebank bowl. So all we have to worry about is the GMAC Bowl.

    Kentucky to beat Tennessee (6-5)

    Tulane to beat SMU (6-5)
    Middle Tenn to beat ULM (6-5)
    Stanford to beat Notre Dame (6-5) Not sure if Notre Dame has to be 7-5 or 6-6 for tie-ins

    Five Win Teams that we want to LOSE
    Missouri to beat Kansas (5-6)
    Syracuse to beat Connecticut (5-5)
    UCF to beat UAB (5-6)

    But we obviously need to beat Troy first. As you can see, we have a lot to watch this weekend. Have fun!!!!!!!!! _
    so far its looking pretty good

    Tuesday:Ball State 22 West Michigan 17
    Thursday: Texas 49 Texas AM 39 (aTm finishes 8th in their conference idk if they will get a bowl bid or not so we shall see)
    Friday: Wyoming 17 Colorado St. 16 (this could be good for us for a not so impressive W)
    Buffalo 9 Kent St 6
    Bowling Green 38 Toledo 24 (Bowling Green is impressive, beat Troy and so will we)
    Toledo was 5-6 so it kept them below 6. this is good

    List of bowl games the sunbelt can hopefully hear from and their scenarios

    Troy:
    New Orleans Bowl: Our fan base favors this bowl If Troy and Middle Tenn accept bids to more attractive bowls
    Papajohns.com: If we beat Troy either them or Midd Tenn can get this bowl considering what Tennesee and South Carolina do
    Little Ceasar's: Might not be enough Big 10 teams to fill this spot and Boise St. might get a BCS bid could open for Troy/Middle Tenn depending on tomorrow
    GMAC: could see either troy or Middle Tenn here

    Middle Tenn:
    GMAC: could see either troy or Middle Tenn here
    Little Ceasar's: Might not be enough Big 10 teams to fill this spot and Boise St. might get a BCS bid could open for Troy/Middle Tenn depending on tomorrow
    Papajohns.com: If we beat Troy either them or Midd Tenn can get this bowl considering what Tennesee and South Carolina do
    St. Petersburg: Either Central Florida or Middle Tenn will get this

    UL:
    New Orleans Bowl: Our fan base favors this bowl If Troy and Middle Tenn accept bids to more attractive bowls
    Eagle bank: if Army loses and Notre Dame doesnt get a bid (firing of Charlie Weiss, losing games)

    As long as ND finishes with 6 wins or more, they will be in a bowl game, PERIOD.

    100% agree! This is why we HAVE to get to 7 wins, b/c any BCS conf school will be taken before UL if we have the same records.

    Toledo was 5-6 so it kept them below 6. this is good _
    Wyoming and Bowling Green both winning hurt as they will now both have 7 wins and these are the teams we are competing against.

    In order of the most likely bowl bid for UL if UL wins against Troy:
    1. New Orleans Bowl if Troy opts out for GMAC Bowl.
    2. Texas or Independence Bowl if Nebraska beats Texas in the Big XII championship game or Okla St. is an at-large bid for a BCS game and the Big XII cannot fulfill all 8 bowl slots.
    3. GMAC Bowl as the ACC will have 2 bowl slots open and this is more likely
    4. Eaglebank Bowl this is the other ACC bowl that the ACC will not fulfill
    5. Little Ceaser Bowl as the Big X will have 1 or 2 bowl bid slots open
    6. New Mexico Bowl as the MWC will have 2 open slots open
    7. Humanitarian Bowl as this is the other MWC bowl slot open

    You may have misunderstood what I was saying. I know there's a rule where the bowls have to take a 7-win team over a six-win team, but, I can absolutley assure you, that rule does not apply to Notre Dame, like it or not...
