Thanks Mex, that is a better response.

But for the record, SMU's all-time winning record was 55% prior to the DP and 48% today.

And teams from the 1920's, 1930's, 1940's, 1950's and 1980's would all have participated in 4 straight bowl games if .500 play was the criteria.

For record, scrolling through the records, if .500 or better is a bowl, and 8+ is counted as two (we have streak of more than 8 consecutive)

(Not including Jones teams)

4+ bowls: 5

3+ bowls: 10

Several of those 3+ would qualify for 4-in-5-years.

Longest streak: 10

So in the pre-DP era of 71 seasons, we averaged a little under a 4 bowl streak every decade, or a 3 bowl streak every 7 years. This is in a "BCS" equivalent conference.
