There are supposed to be 3 new bowl games played in 2020. One in Chicago, One in Myrtle
Beach, SC and another at a site not yet determined, but believed to be in Greenville, Charleston, SC
or Tempe, Az.
Last year there were 3 eligible teams left out of bowl games. This year, as many as 10
could be sitting home even though they are Bowl Eligible.
Here's the current count of bowl eligibility for this season
Currently there are 64 teams Bowl Eligible. 32 teams have been eliminated (Includes Ole Miss
on probation and Liberty in a transition year)
With 2 weeks left for most teams and 3 weeks for a few...
We have 22 teams with 5 wins...1 away from eligibility. (That includes 6-5 Hawaii who because
they
play 13 games they need 7 to be bowl eligible).
9 teams have 6 losses. One loss away from being eliminated.
Thus using those numbers and beliefs that the 5 win teams will get one more win...that would
give us 86 eligible (need 78, to fill the slots) 41 will not make it. The 3 remaining teams
are 4-5 and need 2 wins to get in.
Will the NCAA move up the date, if possible, for those new Bowl Games to begin play?
