Here's an oddity - at 5-7, c.al will be eligible to fill a bowl slot since there will not be enough 6-6 teams.  But other 5-7 schools will take those slots because their APR scores are higher.  Those academically prestigious schools with 5-7 records and higher APR scores than c.al include North Texas and Mississippi State.
