Enough teams are bowl eligible to fill just over two-thirds of the slots but only 18 other teams are a win away. That's seven short of the 78 slots. Mizzou is ineligible at the moment, but they've appealed, so they're on the list with an asterisk. ECU, VaTech, Hawaii, Army and Liberty have to win seven games because they play 13 and/or play more than one 1AA school.
