PROVO — Although Saturday's snoozer against Wagner wasn't as appealing as other games this season, it provided BYU with one huge reward: bowl eligibility.
The blowout victory was the Cougars' sixth win, which makes them eligible for postseason play. Barring an unlikely appearance in a New Year’s Six bowl, BYU will play in the Hawaii Bowl or the Las Vegas Bowl this December.
Both bowls have contracts to field teams from specific conferences, so BYU’s list of possible opponents is limited. The Cougars could still snag a great postseason matchup, though. Here is a complete breakdown of the possibilities.
