4 cities in your post, Boss. Charlotte to play Duke. How anyone could want us playing in Bham at the old grey turd is beyond me

there will be multiple 5-7 teams making bowl games
Is this allowed? I thought 6 wins was firm and non negotiable. Admittedly, I haven't followed bowl team's records. I just always understood 6 wins is a must.

Also, there are 40 bowl games for FBS teams this year, so you have to have 80 teams to fill the slots. If there aren't 80 teams with 6+ wins, waivers will have to be given to fill the spots.

Good deal thanks. Hope Jacksonville.

Yeah. I'd hate for Auburn to play a game in my home town. That'd be awful.

I might go to the Belk. Definitely wouldn't go to the others (save some amazing matchup luck).
But opponent is the only thing I care much about, and that means Houston.

Interestingly enough, the SBNation article fails to mention Auburn as a potential 5-7 bowl team.
With a football APR of 950, we should be right next to East Carolina in the chart, but we're not there.
