[QUOTE="FredJacket, post: 368519, member: 2843"] Well... Ga Tech's bowl prospects are not good. Obviously, beating UGA takes care of it. That would be glorious..for reasons beyond bowl eligibility. So... if we're winning Saturday, no need to read further. Should we end up 5-6... we are in a hurt. Currently, there are 70 bowl eligible teams out of 78 bowl slots available. 18 teams are sitting at 5 wins. Here's the problem. 8 of those 18 play each other this weekend. Assuming (best case...and not likely) none of the other 10 teams wins, that leaves only 4 slots for 5-win teams. The slightly good news.. most (not all) of those 10 teams will be underdogs. Factor in... 1) FSU and a couple of Sunbelt teams sitting at 4-6 right now with 2 games remaining and still able to get to 6 wins. 2) Our APR is good; but still behind Minnesota and Duke who are at 5 wins. Simply a VERY narrow path (virtually impossible) for Ga Tech to make a bowl with 5 wins. [URL]https://athlonsports.com/college-football/bowl-game-eligible-college-football-teams-2017[/URL] [/QUOTE]
