If true I hate to say it but it doesnt look good for us…
With that said though, even if we don't go to a bowl game I'll be happy with 6-6…
Hell to be honest I'm happy with 5-7 with the way the last few years have gone.

CUSA has 6 Bowl tie-ins and will have 7 eligible teams, should we win on Friday. UTSA is not eligible once there are 70 bowl eligible teams. FAU will have to hope one of the CUSA bowls prefers having us over another CUSA team or we get into a bowl who's tie-in conference doesn't have enough teams.Posted On: Nov 25th 2013, 1:16 PM #322444
I believe I read that C-USA's policy is not to take C-USA teams whose record is not better than the other.

But regardless, that's not happening.

Nope, it does not. I think we might not only be late to the party but not bring enough incentive for someone with money on their mind to take us. At best we'd probably travel about 2-3k right now. I read that bowl officials were at FAU Stadium for the NMSU game and I can't imagine they liked what they saw :(

Which is why FAU should be doing everything in their power to get as many people in the stadium on Friday as possible. Donate tickets to every charity you can find…$1 ticket offers, whatever.
