The NCAA has nothing to gain or lose from the bowls. Why would they care?

If they are letting 5-7 teams in it wouldn't even upset the SEC. Just move Kentucky or Mizzou up and fill all the spots.

And it might be ole miss that moves the bowl ban up. Take the hit this year and make a bowl next year. Especially if some of your players will not be eligible for the 2nd semester...

I don't believe it, but it's not crazy.
