San Diego State (7-1/3-1 in conference)
@ UNLV (0-8/0-4)
Colorado State (3-5/2-5)
@ Wyoming (4-4/0-4)
A 4-3 Wisconsin team obliterated #9 Iowa the other day. We GET chance...No worries. Will we need luck? Sure.

We win all 4 games. ;-)

It's now or never time with no more room for error. Need to win 3 out of 3 to guarantee a bowl bid. 2 out of 3 to possibly back in if there are not enough bowl eligible teams. I'm hopeful we can do it, but frankly I don't think we will.

@ UNLV (1-8/1-4 in conference, beat New Mexico 31-17 last week)
Colorado State (3-6/2-3, lost to Wyoming 17-31)
@ Wyoming (5-4/1-4, beat CSU 31-17)

Two teams with losing records and one at about 500. If we can't get in, we don't deserve it. Realistically, the Wyoming game should be the deciding game.

Hence why I honestly think this year's Paniolo Trophy game will be very interesting. Winner gets, hopefully, a bowl invitation. Loser will wonder WTH went wrong with this season. 'Cos there's NO way in bloody hell Wyoming will beat both the Smurfs (Boise State) and Utah State on the road (we're at the Smurfs tonight).

I'm hoping you guys will be bowl eligible before we play.

I'll be honest here...me too. LOL Although I do admit I really want Wyoming to keep our Paniolo Trophy in Laramie for another year or two or more. :D

I called it on the Boise game. Wyoming lost 23-13. The offense kept shooting itself in the foot with the penalties. Defense did great. It's just that our offense is bad!!!!

I think if neither team was bowl eligible it would make the game and the paniolo trophy more meaningful this year. As this will the bowl game for both teams.

I really hate to say it but I agree 100%.

Neither team deserves a bowl invitation at this point. No offense to all Hawaii fans.

Oh, yeah for Wyoming. :D But we need to beat y'all to make sure. Yes, we are bowl eligible but...A 6-6 record might not get a bowl invitation.

Nothin' personal.

Besides we want to keep the Paniolo Trophy in Laramie.

Per ESPN1420's Bobby Curran Show, Hawaii still has a chance to play in the Hawaii Bowl.

Here is the mathematical breakdown...
41 Bowl Games
82 Bowl Invites
72 Teams are already Bowl Eligible
10 Invites are up for grab

21 Teams have 5 wins (including Hawaii)
4 Games will result in 4 teams getting eligible and 4 teams note (**)

That leaves 6 slots left for the remaining 13 teams. Hawaii needs to beat Wyoming and have 7 team to lose.

Here are the games to pay attention to this weekend (Rankings according to CBS Sports)
#59 LSU vs #16 Texas A&M
#60 West Virginia vs #115 Kansas
#62 Maryland @ #66 Rutgers **
#65 Syracuse vs #18 Pitt
#66 Rutgers vs #62 Maryland **
#68 Florida vs #76 Florida St **
#69 Virginia Tech vs #44 Virginia
#75 Memphis vs #108 Tulane
#76 Florida St @ #68 Florida **
#77 TCU @ #39 Iowa St
#87 Ball St vs #111 Buffalo
#88 FAU vs #95 Middle Tenn **
#91 Tulsa vs #26 SMU
#93 San Jose St vs #37 Fresno St
#95 Middle Tenn @ FAU **
#99 Troy vs #84 Georgia St
#101 Old Dominion vs #104 Charlotte **
#102 North Texas vs #14 UTSA
#103 South Alabama vs #33 Coastal Carolina
#104 Charlotte vs #101 Old Dominion **
#107 Hawaii @ #98 Wyoming

Go Bows!!! Get Chance 🤙🤙

AND Wyoming needs that extra win to get an invitation since a 6-6 record for my Pokes might not get anything.

GO WYO!!!! BEAT THE BOWS like we did last November! LOL

Wyokie,
Wyoming is in it already. No worries, take the week off. Have the school treat the team to extra turkey for breakfast on Saturday 😆

Nice try. I rather we blow you all out for our loyal fans and for the Seniors in really chilly Laramie, WYOMING!!!! Beside I'll feel safer of getting a bowl invitation with a 7-5 record than a 6-6 mark.
