I have yet to find a seven win team from any major conference not make a bowl game.... if you can find one please tell me.... six wins and your pushing it (especially if you have a losing record in conference), seven and your virtually a lock....

Virginia went 7-4 in '88, '92, '97 without going bowling..and Syracuse went 7-4 in '94 without going bowling....those are some teams right off the top of my head..Im sure there's dozens more..but the '97 Virginia team seems like it was the last team in the "if you go .500, you go bowling" era to win 7 games in a major conference and not go to a bowl..
