I'm worried.

WKU has not won @ home since moving to FBS.

[Big Buds]

Turb, I wouldn't call WKU a hostile road environment. Its just moms and girlfriends.

[Big Buds]

In all seriousness you do make a very strong point. In fact I'm a little worried about the same thing myself but I think we'll be just fine.

[cajun_civil]

Um, no I don't think so.

Troy was our most complete game in my opinion.

Without a doubt, we could use a few more like that.

Where does everyone get this 7 wins gets you a bowl thing from?

6 wins gets you a bowl. One FCS victory can count toward that 6.

In the eyes of bowl selection committees, 6 wins and 7 wins are not to be discriminated between. Correct Jay?

We have had 6 wins a few times in the past few years and we were not invited to a bowl game. So no 6 wins does not gaurantee us a bowl game. If 2 other schools with 6 or more wins also come out of the SBC it is possible that we stay home. It has happened more than once. And I would bet if we lose our last 5 games and go 6-6 we are likely staying home.

Exactly, a 6-6 team on a 5 game losing streak does not look good, keep winning, feels alot better

That's not the point I'm making. I know we've been left out at 6 wins. But in the eyes of bowl selection committees, one more win doesn't get us another drop of cred. 8 wins is the next "milestone of eligibility."

When selections are being made, 6 and 7 win teams will all be in the same pot.

I take the Alfred E. Newman (MAD Magazine) approach. "What, me worry??"

UL 70
Wky 7 FINAL

6 wins for BCS teams get a bowl games
6 wins (with 1 beating FCS) for worst Conference in America gets you nothing (As you have noticed in years 2005, 2006, 2008, 2009)
6 wins (with no FCS win/loss and 1-2 wins vs other bowl teams) for worst Conference in America gets you a bowl game
7+ wins for worst Conference in America gets you a bowl game

Every game the rest of the way will be tough. 31-20 ul.
