It’s getting down to the wire for schools wanting to play in a bowl this season.

See this link for a rundown of the entire situation.

Maybe we can have a little fun picking who may turn the corner this week. Here’s the field:



Teams that need one more win (14)

Arkansas State  (5-4)         7:30 PM Texas State           at Arkansas State

Vanderbilt      (5-4)        12:21 PM Kentucky              at Vanderbilt

Most of these schools will have another crack in the next week or two, but who do you think will get it done this week?

Public multiple choice poll coming right up…

Well, Zakalwe, I guess we’re the only ones who look at that end of the Power Teams list, huh? :slight_smile:

It amuses me how many bowl projections are already out and we still don’t have a complete list of the eligible teams.

I’m still hoping UTennessee can qualify, but it’s getting shakier as the games roll by.

I went with Boston College and Navy.

That’s better! With five of us at this point, it may make for a fun weekend for the 5-x group. Surely some of them will break on through to bowl time potential.
