Bowl Eligible:

Louisiana Ragin' Cajuns: Louisiana grabbed their sixth win of the season in Week 8 with a 34-24 win over Coastal Carolina. The Cajuns are eligible for the postseason for the seventh season in a row. Their last bowl win came in the 2021 New Orleans Bowl, Michael Desormeaux's first game as head coach.

James Madison Dukes: JMU beat Southern Miss 32-15 in Week 9 to get to six wins. The Dukes reached their first FBS bowl game last year under Curt Cignetti, but came up short against Air Force in the Armed Forces Bowl.

Georgia Southern Eagles: Week 10 saw the Eagles win the fourth quarter 20-0 against South Alabama and secure their sixth win. This marks the third consecutive year that Georgia Southern have become bowl eligible, but they have yet to win a bowl game under Clay Helton.
