Those publications are limited to projecting only the bowls that have conference ties.  They cannot, at least in preseason, project that any conference will not have enough bowl teams to fill their expected spots.

Those publications are also a little lazy when it comes to the "other" conferences.  It is easy to just pick the top 6 from last year and hit print.  You will most likely hit 4 of the 6.

Those projections just tell me that we weren't in the top 6 last year, so we won't be projected this year.

I really hope this turns out to be Fake News!
