The bowl picture is getting very, very clear.
With one week to go in the 2024 college football regular season, 77 teams are already postseason eligible and have at least six wins. Counting the 12-team playoff, there are 82 postseason berths available with 35 non-playoff bowls at the end of the season.
The number of bowl-eligible teams is guaranteed to be no lower than 79 at the end of the regular season with two games featuring 5-6 teams in Week 14. And it’s likely that there will be more bowl-eligible teams than there are bowl spots available once Saturday night is over.
