With far too many bowl slots to fill this postseason, there's been a lot of speculation that at least a few 5-7 teams could see themselves selected despite not meeting the requisite six-win mark. Yesterday, on Syracuse.com, it was even suggested that our own Syracuse Orange could be the recipients of such good fortune with quality academics, should they reach 5-7.
Problems, however:
- It's currently very unlikely the Orange get to five wins.
- There are FAR too many teams ahead of SU in the pecking order, should it come to this.
