There were indications Tuesday night the 7-5 Eagles, bowl-eligibile for the first time since 2010, were exploring an at-large berth as a Big Ten replacement in the Heart of Dallas Bowl Jan. 1 opposite a Conference-USA opponent, possibly Rice.

This would be a neat matchup. The Mean Green D had a nice day against Todd Gurley. Would they be able to contain Andre Williams?
