NCAA: 2017/18 Non Playoff/NY6 Bowl watch

[HisIceness]

No 5 win teams will be bowling this season since there are more than enough 6 or more win teams this season. So where will everyone from Duke to Washington State and everyone else in-between end up?

Washington State sounds like the quintessential holiday bowl team.

Army committed to the Armed Forces Bowl a few weeks back which is a shame as I think they could've got a better one. But really the bowl game is under 2 weeks from now in Philly and an actual bowl game is just a bonus.

I'm pretty sure that Army is locked into that bowl if they make one.

I'm pretty sure that Army is locked into that bowl if they make one.

Possible but IIRC they went to the Heart of Dallas Bowl last year. Maybe AF had first dibs on the AFB last year (I'm pretty certain they were in it last year).

Some intriguing Orange Bowl possible matchups for my beloved U should they lose to Clemson include Alabama, Georgia (should they lose to Auburn) in what would be "The Richt Bowl" and Rossi Rat's beloved Nittany Lions.

A few bowl eligible teams will be left out this year. As of now, that number is three.

 

[HisIceness]

Michigan and South Carolina in the Outback Bowl 5 years to the day since this

 

[SJSharksfan39]

Hopefully Stanford comes back to Santa Clara for that bowl game. I'm not even sure if Cal is Bowl eligable or not. Really didn't follow it much after week 3.

 

[HisIceness]

Stanford is off to San Antonio for the Alamo Bowl. Cal finished w/ 5 wins.

Think Purdue/Arizona is the Santa Clara game.

 

[Taro Tsujimoto]

 

[DoyleG]

Celebration Bowl set for Dec 16
N.C. A&T (11-0) vs. Grambling State (11-1)

 

[snowden]

Lame that USF goes back to the shitty Birmingham Bowl. Should be a lot of points scored vs Texas Tech tho.

 

[GKJ]

Virginia Tech going to Orlando for the Camping World Bowl to play Oklahoma State. Good matchup, although Virginia Tech’s offense has sputtered since the loss to Miami.

Idk why wmu got the back of the hand
