   Of the teams that haven't already guaranteed a bowl berth and have a chance   
   either to get to 6 wins or qualify on APR with 5 wins (or, for James Madison   
   and Jacksonville State, if there aren't 82 other 6-win teams), here are the   
   probabilities of each one    
   getting into a bowl, based on the game win probabilities from ESPN Analytics:   
   James Madison, 96.3069 %   
   Central Florida, 93.9727 %   
   Rice, 92.9435 %   
   Jacksonville State, 90.4918 %  (this assumes that, if there are 81 berths   
   taken by 6-win teams, James Madison gets taken over Jacksonville State for the   
   last one)
