We get Oklahoma State ----- Potential bowl and bowl opponent watch thread:

5-3 w/a game against Abilene Christian on 11/18 our odds of making a bowl are at 99.9%.

Our remaining schedule

11/04 - at Ole Miss
11/11 - Mississippi State
11/18 - Abilene Christian
11/25 - at LSU

I do not have any confidence w/the games at Ole Miss and LSU. It's been two years since we won a true road game and the offense has been so terrible that I just don't see how we can score enough to win those games.

As for the other two, ACU should be a win simply from a talent standpoint and Mississippi State has an offense that's so bad they would likely trade w/us in a heartbeat. The MSU game should go about the same as the South Carolina game IMO. An ugly win but ultimately a win by double digits.

That would put us at 7-5 on the year.

As a reminder the SEC bowl order goes like this

SEC
1. NY6 (normally Sugar but it's a playoff game this season)
2. Citrus vs Big 10 (or ACC if Big 10 team goes to the Orange)

Tier 1 Group of 6: SEC in consultation with bowls and schools assign teams

ReliaQuest Bowl vs Big Ten (formerly the Outback Bowl)
Duke's Mayo Bowl vs ACC (formerly the Belk Bowl)
Gator Bowl vs ACC
Music City Bowl vs Big Ten
Texas Bowl vs Big 12
Liberty Bowl vs Big 12

*Las Vegas Bowl (vs Pac-12) and Duke's Mayo Bowl are on rotation. Mayo Bowl is in odd years while Vegas is in even.

Tier 2

Birmingham Bowl vs G6 pool
Gasparilla Bowl vs G6 pool
