   Slight correction: should all of the 3-win and 4-win teams lose out, Louisiana   
   (#48 on the list) would get the 82nd bowl spot.   
   This means Florida Atlantic, Florida International, and Western Michigan have   
   to win out to get into a bowl, and Alabama-Birmingham, New Mexico, Southern   
   Mississippi, UTEP, and Tulsa not only need to win out but hope that at least   
   one 5-7 team declines    
   its bowl bid (and it has happened).   
      
   Another note: once all 82 bowl bids have been accepted, if a team withdraws   
   from its bowl for any reason - say, a sudden case of sitoutitis - then that   
   bowl's organizer can choose any team (well, any non-Pac-12 team) to take its   
   place, regardless of    
   record or APR.
