It’s increasingly looking like the bowl-pocalypse will have to wait another year.

There are now 53 teams eligible for the postseason; 21 more need just one victory. And there’s 70 slots. The math isn’t particularly hard.

Anyway, here’s this week’s update:

(EDIT, 4:20 p.m.: Was brought to my attention that Air Force is 5-5 with a pair of wins over lower-division teams. As a result, it is ineligible with a loss rather than eligible with a win heading into next week. It’s been corrected below).
