Yes, they would be
6-7 teams that normally play a 13-team schedule, such as Hawaii's home opponents. Although Hawaii normally plays a 13-game schedule, it only played 12 games in the 2012 season.

We have to go 5-1 to close the season to be bowl eligible. Tom Holmoe is looking like a psychic now for not

Shoot, is there another FCS team on our schedule?

UMASS is close...

Just checked, all FBS opponents. 5-1 to close out the season gets us a bowl game.

IF there aren't enough 6-6 teams
rggee
10/14/17 1:34pm
Which there won't be simply because of the number of bowl games available now.
SuperTank
10/14/17 1:37pm
Maybe. We would also come after 6-7 teams that lost their conference champ game

Are there usually a lot of 6-6 teams that go to a conference championship game?
SuperTank
10/14/17 1:39pm
I don't know. 1 or 2

Right. We're not going to a bowl this year, are we?

If we win out, yes. if not, no

Not sure BYU would accept a bowl bid for this group

Are we eligible st 6 and 7?

No

Pretty sure we are.
SuperTank
10/14/17 1:27pm
We're not.

Yeah, I just looked it up. You can go bowling at 5-7 with an exception. 6-7 is guaranteed if there's an open bowl.
SuperTank
10/14/17 1:28pm
6-7 is not guaranteed. the rule is you have to be .500 or better.
rggee
10/14/17 1:32pm
Yes, they would be

Read the full context. That is under the section of "if some bowls are unfilled"
rggee
10/14/17 1:33pm
25% of teams had non-winning records last season. They nearly had to cancel bowls because there were no available teams
SuperTank
10/14/17 1:38pm
Maybe
rggee
10/14/17 1:38pm
Not guaranteed by any means
rggee
10/14/17 1:39pm
Eligible - Yes, invited - perhaps not. Not "No"
FiveTen-BuckEighty
10/14/17 1:48pm
"Eligible" with an exception, I guess

Isn’t there a graduation rate tie breaker for under 500 teams?
Cougtruth

6-7 teams go before 5-7 teams.
displacedute
10/14/17 2:35pm
Not normally, but we could get an exception if there aren't enough teams with
chilango
10/14/17 1:28pm
Yes, as long as all the 6-6 teams are selected
displacedute
10/14/17 1:28pm
Only after all the 6-6 or better teams get invites.
