Houston-possible BCS
Southern Miss
Tulsa
SMU
ECU 5-6
UTEP 5-6
Marshall 5-6

ECU plays Marshall Saturday so we would be CUSA 3rd team if we beat Rice or we could be tied for 3-4 or tied for 3-5 if UTEP beats UCF and we lose. -but CUSA doesn't really slot teams rigidly-they will put teams in bowls that make the most sense. They may have to move Tulsa, Houston or SMU East to Beef O Brady Bowl. I guess there is a chance but CUSA will do everything possible not to let that happen

ECU plays at Marshall, so only 1 of those 2 get bowl eligible. If Tulsa beats Houston, no BCS for UH, and they count against our conf total.

Yes actually could have had 7 since Navy lost its Military Bowl bid and CUSA is Back-up Conference and if UH goes BCS we could have sent 8 teams to Bowls

Liberty
TicketCity
Armed Forces
Hawaii
Beef O Brady
New Orleans

Thanks. In your opinion, you feel like SMU will go AFB or Ticket City? Either way, Local?

Looks like it's gonna be local now w/Hawaii melting down at the end of the season.
Personally would prefer TicketCity just for a change of pace.
