Still on track to make a bowl

Number of bowl-eligible teams: 39 of 78
Teams that became bowl-eligible this week: Arizona, Boise State, Iowa State, Michigan, Troy, South Carolina, Mississippi State, Kentucky, Stanford, Northern Illinois and Southern Methodist

Our current bowl projection: Pinstripe Bowl on Dec. 27.

The Pinstripe Bowl is likely to grab a Northeast representative to ensure solid attendance. The conclusion of the year should determine whether Syracuse or Boston College is the more attractive option.

For now, we'll guess that it'll be New York's College Team.

Bowl projections from other media:

SB Nation's Jason Kirk has Syracuse facing Nebraska in the Pinstripe Bowl in the Bronx.
ESPN's David Hale has Syracuse facing Western Michigan in the QuickLane Bowl in Detroit.
ESPN's Kyle Bonagura has Syracuse facing Western Kentucky in the Independence Bowl in Shreveport, La.
CBS Sports' Jerry Palm does not include Syracuse in his most recent bowl projections.
Sports Illustrated's Eric Shingle has Syracuse facing Maryland in the Pinstripe Bowl in the Bronx.

Be great if Rutgers won out and we played them in the Pinstripe Bowl. That would be a fun game.
 
It all starts this week with the cable box bowl between Rutgers & Maryland.

Maryland would be a good match up as well. I'm all for the addition of more northeastern football games. I care much more about those than our non rivalries with NC State, FSU, et al. I get the reasoning but if we can figure out a way, in bowl games, to play the likes of WVU/Rutgers/UConn/Maryland i'm very happy
 
This game is better than any bowl matchup Cuse may get. You get to play one of the apex predator teams on their field with a legit chance to beat them. Alabama, Ohio State, USC, Notre Dame Oklahoma, FSU... those are the apex super powers. Take them down and take their mojo.

Jerry Palm and his Wisconsin hoops fetish can take a hike
