Sagarin Predictor projections had Missouri at 5-7, Kentucky at 2-10, Arkansas at 5-7, and Mississippi State at 4-8. That would leave 10 teams for 10 bids and one team short if the $EC has two BC$ teams.

But Missouri's projection is about to change to 6-6 because it will beat Indiana (up 38-14 with 14:30 left).

UTSA still up 25-13 on UTEP with 13:37 left in the game.

Some karmic football justice: Arizona St 28 -Stanford 42

UTSA beats UTEP 32-13.

Michigan takes over on downs and survives UCONN, 24-21.
LSU beats Auburn 35-21.

Texas holds on to beat Kansas State 31-21.

I HATE those Uteppers. I mean, absolutely despise them.

Of course, this may mean we will also lose to the Roadrunners.....:(.

Nah! we'll take 'em. Dixon will rush for 350 yds that day (and not fumble).

And never ever give an opponent a 2nd chance to convert a 3rd down.

2-3 years ago I told you guys that UTSA was going to rise quickly as an athletic program, and as a football team. Now it's happening.

Wonderful what happens when there's a plan with personnel to implement and support the plan.

They are doing well for a new program. Kind of like USF's meteoric rise.....and subsequent fall.

The Gonzaga of football just got a basketball score run up on them.
