Bowl projections Jameis Winston Marcus Mariota to square off

We're in mid-November, which means it's time for bowl organizers and conference higher-ups to truly begin worrying about whether there will be enough teams to fill all the bowl slots Adam Korsak Jersey .Remember that four bowls have been added this season, so when you include the two playoff semifinal games that will be played in bowls, there are 38 bowls. That means 76 teams will be in the postseason -- or 59 percent of the 128 teams in the FBS ranks. Thus far, 51 teams have reached bowl eligibility -- eight in the SEC, seven in the ACC and Big Ten, six in the Pac-12 (Washington has six wins but must get to seven because it plays 13 regular-season games), five in the Big 12, Mid-American and Mountain West, three in Conference USA, two in the AAC and Sun Belt and one in the independent ranks.There McKenzie Barnes Jersey are 24 teams that need one more victory, so expect another dozen or so to become eligible this week.Another thing to remember is that the selection committee responsible for choosing the four teams for the playoff also will select the eight teams that will be involved in the four other bowls a sociated with the playoff. This season, the playoff semifinals are in the Rose and Sugar bowls, meaning the 12-person playoff selection committee also will pick the matchups in the Cotton, Fiesta, Orange and Peach bowls. While there are 12 teams involved in the six games, it's not nece sarily the 12 highest-ranked teams by committee; instead, the highest-ranked team from outside of the "Power Five" conferences is guaranteed a slot in one of the games, even if it falls outside the top 12.When looking over these bowl projections, Jacob Heyroth Jersey remember that a bowl's tie-in with a league doesn't nece sarily mean it will get the third- or fourth-, etc., place team from the league; instead, it means it gets the third or fourth, etc., selection from that league. You'll also notice that there is no clear-cut designation for some of the league tie-ins; that's because the leagues and bowl organizers want a lot of leeway to put together what they consider the best po sible matchup. For instance, Georgia and Nebraska have met in the past two postseasons; it's hard to imagine bowl organizers would match them for Marcus Pierce Jersey a third consecutive season.
