As you can see with some of the projections, WKU could find themselves on the outside looking in with their 6–6 record. A lot of these websites publish these projections as click bait and aren’t too accurate. We still believe that WKU will probably go to the Cure Bowl in Orlando if they do in fact make the cut but it is interesting to see other options available as well (McMurphy switching his pick to the New Mexico Bowl is very interesting).
Tomorrow we’ll give you a guide of teams to root for during this weekend’s game that will help WKU’s chances before Sunday’s selections.
What do you think about the media’s projections? Are they accurate or just click bait? Which of these match-ups would be most entertaining? Let us know in a comment below, via Twitter at @TheTowelRackWKU or on our Facebookpage.
