Bowl Eligibility Watch

Obviously we have two games we need to win.  So we must take care of our own business.

Even if we do, it may be a crowded field.

78 total spots available.

63 are already eligible.

14 are within 1-win of it.

107 total teams are still in the running (will probably drop by a couple more tonight).

So, which bowl game are you hoping we get to get blown away in?  We really need more national exposure of this train wreck season.

It’s hard to fathom “national exposure” because people can’t sleep at night knowing that the Cheez It’s bowl game will be on tv. I hope we make to a bowl game for the players, but in a reality we will be one of the weakest 6-6 team to make it.

I guess we need to ask ourselves , what do we bring to the table when comparing our bowl chances vs. other 6 & 6 teams. Other than Fine, I am at a loss. We would put butts in the seats in local bowls in Dallas, Ft. Worth, and Frisco, but that's about it. Also, after watching a number of lower tier bowl games over the years with horrible attendance, I really don't know why they put together some of the matchups that they do. If television rules the day  we are back to Mason as our edge and not our record. However, we need to win the next two games, which I don't know that we can.

If we win the next two games, we will be in the Independence Bowl. Luckily most hardcore UNT fans can use this as a excuse to have a casino trip.

We didn't get in the Independence Bowl with 9&3 records so I wouldn't think a 6&6 team with zero notable wins would be invited, especially with 8&2 La. Tech down the road. Best chance might be Frisco Bowl, but at this point its just a guess and by golly.

Recall the C-USA team that DID get the Indy Bowl invite in 2017:  6-6 Southern Miss.

It's certainly not out of the realm.
