A team becomes bowl eligible by winning six (6) games. In a schedule that is 11 or 12 games long, six wins guarantees at least a .500 record. Many people believe that a team can "guarantee" themselves bowl eligibility by stacking the non-conference schedule with FCS (formerly I-AA) schools. However, only one win against an FCS school counts toward the six wins. Therefore, if a FBS team beats two FCS teams, it will actually have to win seven games to be bowl eligible. Even after a team has become bowl eligible, though, it still must be invited to a bowl in order to play. There could be more bowl eligible teams than there are available spots in bowl games, therefore leaving teams out.

To be bowl eligible a team must win 6 games in their season (in the current 12 game season), or 7 if they played non-FBS (Division II schools). Non-FBS schools only count for a half win in the win total.

No, teams do not apply to bowl games to play. Teams that play in BCS bowl games are based on their national ranking. The BCS bowls specify which ranking will play another ranking. Other bowl games have contracts with certain conferences which will specify that a member of that conference will play in the bowl game. Some examples are: 1) Outback Bowl - contracts with the Big 10 and SEC. A Big 10 team will play an SEC team.

2) Papa Johns Bowl - contracts with the Big East and SEC. An SEC team will play a Big East team.

3) Insight Bowl - contracts with the Big 10 and Big 12. The 6th place team in the Big 10 will play the 6th place team in the Big 12.

4) Music City Bowl - contracts with the SEC and ACC. An ACC team will play an SEC team.

first, each bowl game is assigned 2 different conferences that will have a representative in the bowl game. For example, the Rose Bowl is Big 10 #1 vs PAC-12 #1. That means that the first place team in the big 10 will play the first place team in the PAC-12. However, if the one of those teams is taken by the BCS Championship then an at-large may be selected for the rose bowl. For example, last year TCU got to the Rose Bowl becuase the 1st place team in the Pac-12 was in the BCS National Championship Game(Oregon). Wisconsin won the tiebreaker for the Big 10 so they got there to play TCU.

You have to either ear a scholarship out of high school or you can get accepted into the school and tryout for the football team as a walk on
