How confident are we that we can still become bowl eligible?

Then its actually not decent. is it?Our APR is 959 which is decent but so many schools are ahead of us
Our APR is low right now. And I actually think the NCAA needs to revisit the calculation methodology with respect to the new transfer rules. It really seems to be harder to maintain the same "progress toward a degree" levels when players are transferring but all credits don't transfer or their previous major isn't offered at the new school.
Decades even...For years? Really?
What were talking about? Stnford?Decades even...
I can remember losing to NU under Neuheisel three times in a row for 10 points. Both teams were still very relevant too.
I cant remember much about CU football after Barnett.

Not Confident we’re going to a bowl game at all. And after the latest press conference I’m a whole lot less confident CP is staying

I crib this from the "other" board:
Supposedly, Dan Patrick is saying the P12 has the legal ability to waive the 6 - win rule and allow a 5 win team to go to a bowl.
I have no idea if that is true, but do remember a few 5 - win teams going to bowls in years past - and not because of covid
There are many smaller bowls that would give a lot to have CP and the high-publicity Buffs.

yea they have talked all morning about the Buffs vs James Madison would sell tickets. It's possible, but CU must win one more, 5 win minimum
You have to remember the ivory tower eggheads that ran the P12 into the ground could mess up a glass of water. If CU's bowl fate is on them, mark me down as low confidence.
I'd be at that game in a heartbeat.
your drugs. share them.

Odd thought: Isn't the P12 now just WSU and OSU? The conference gets some of the payout from bowl games. Does that mean those 2 teams could bank any amount for their future use? Would be an incentive for them to get the Buffs in a bowl.
Go Buffs.
Depends on when the payouts occur from the CFP. Individual bowl games guarantee the participants certain amounts of revenue to cover costs, but the conference gets part of that as well to distribute. The bigger issue is the NCAA Basketball Tournament payouts which are spread out over 6 years if I remember correctly.
As usual the winners will be the lawyers as they take their time to settle this whole thing.
I like your thinking on this issue.
Flawed theory. Wouldn't the easier path be for Wazzu to win tonight and get to 5 wins themselves.
Taking a moment to mourn bowl eligibility
Excluding a complete miracle, the Buffs will become bowl ineligible tonight.
I'm taking a moment to savor just what that means. We've been to TWO bowl games since 2007, and the last time we've won a bowl was 2004. Let that sink in for a moment.
We all have criticisms of BOB but I for one am so appreciative and thankful we're competitive and close to going to bowl games again and that the decades of misery are not yet behind us.

**** them. What are they going to do, kick us out?
You think it would take a miracle to beat a Wazzu squad that has lost its last 6 games?
I see what you're doing, @SewallBeach
Yea, 8:30 in November in Pullman against a desperate WSU squad that's better than their record in their last year in a power five school.
A beat up QB, a patchwork OL, and the curse on CU.
Rest easy gentlepeople, this is going to hurt, so don't make it worse by caring.
Are you asking @B_Walk ?
Flawed theory.
Which team will draw the most bank from a bowl appearance, WSU or YOUR mutha****ing University of Colorado Golden Buffaloes?
This.
Even if the team is "eligible" at 5-7, the bowl still has to invite them. It's possible that WSU is the only game on CU's schedule that won't sell out. If WSU can't sell 35K tickets to a game to see God's most interesting football team on the opposite sideline, then why the **** would they turn out to see WSU against Furman in "Ed's Bait n' Tackle Tupelo Bowl" in Mississippi?
