The NCAA announced plans to add a one-time replacement bowl game for this year's bowl season, according to The Action Network's Brett McMurphy.
After the Division I Football Oversight Committee approved a request to waive the April 1 bowl game certification application on Thursday afternoon, this year's bowl season will now include 42 games and allow for all 84 bowl-eligible teams to participate.
At the start of the season and prior to the Committee's vote, the bowl system consisted of 41 games with 82 teams to fill all necessary spots.
Among the teams that are now eligible for a bowl game after the approved change is Hawaiu02bbi (6-7) because the Warriors played in 13 regular season games and finished with six wins.
