Yes, I know we have 2 wins. Who is thinking of a bowl? But lets just assume we win out and get to that 5 wins. We have a rabid fan base who follows this team religiously. Bowls want teams that will generate crowds and bring in money. Especially if we finish strong, get to that 5 wins. We could be an exciting team many across the country want to see.
I believe I saw somewhere there are 40 bowls so 80 spots available. As of right now there are 51 teams who are already bowl eligible. Leaving 29 spots left. There are 29 teams that have 5 wins and 18 that have 4 wins. 10 That have 3. Obviously not all of those 5 win teams will get to 6 and probably a few 4 win and 3 win teams will.
I know it is a long shot we make it, but if we finish strong. A 5 win Nebraska team is much more enticing to Bowls than most others. If they are short and need a 5 win team. I think we have a chance.
