Western Kentucy left out of Bowl game

[feathers]

Kind of like BG the last couple of years. After finishing number two in the sun belt with a 7-5 record was left out. How about the comment the Ohio punter made about playing in Boise?

Did they do away with the rule making bowl games take 7-5 teams before offering 6-6 teams?

Apparently the rule is that if a bowl has a conference tie-in, you must fulfill that with eligible teams from that conference, you cannot take a 6-6 team before you take a 7-5 or better team from that conference. If there isn't an eligible team from the tied-in conference, then I think the rule you mentioned applies.

Last year was worse when an 8-4 Temple team was left out...

Meanwhile, UCLA is in a bowl game with a 6-7 record.

Meanwhile, UCLA is in a bowl game with a 6-7 record.

And more than likely will end the season with a 6-8 record.
