Two teams that were 6-6 were ineligible for having played two FCS teams this year (App State and Army). 7-5 is required for bowl eligibility in that case unless a waiver is granted (New Mexico State received one since they had to emergency schedule a game against a second FCS opponent after San Jose State canceled their game against them this year, and they ended up 6-6). Due to these two teams being ineligible, none with .500 records or better were left, so the 5-7 team with the best academic record was rewarded with the last bowl berth (which happened to be Rice). A REALLY weird year and chain of events.
