No. 13 Western Michigan and No. 20 Navy could put a bunch of bowls on hold, depending on what the College Football Playoff selection committee thinks of their performances this weekend.If Navy is in position to earn a spot in a major bowl game when the rankings and semifinal pairings are set Sunday, the 12-person committee will wait a week for Navy to play Army to make a final call on where the Midshipmen should be ranked.Navy (9-2) is 19th in the latest playoff rankings, two spots behind unbeaten Western Michigan heading into the Midshipmens matchup with Temple in the American Athletic Conference championship game Saturday. The Broncos (13-0) beat Ohio 29-23 in the Mid-American championship game Friday night in Detroit.The highest ranked team from the so-called Group of Five -- American, MAC, Mountain West, Conference USA and Sun Belt -- gets an automatic bid to a New Years Six bowl. This season that means the Cotton Bowl in Arlington, Texas, on Jan. 2.Selection committee chairman Kirby Hocutt said this week that the committee has had a conference call scheduled for Dec. 10 since the summer, just in case this issue came up.If Navy was to pass Western Michigan, it is all but certain the committee would wait to make sure the Midshipmen beat Army (6-5) before it set a Cotton Bowl matchup.If Navy remains behind WMU come Sunday, it will be up to the committee to determine if it needs to see the Army result.The committee is not limited by any specific number, distance behind or ahead. The committee only has to evaluate whether the Army game could affect Navys selection, said Bill Hancock, the executive director of the College Football Playoff. The problem with numerical metrics with something like this is two spots behind could be as close as four spots behind depending on how the committee views that cluster of teams together.Waiting a week to determine whether Western Michigan, Navy or some other team plays in the Cotton Bowl is an inconvenience for organizers of that game, but the bigger issue is the possible trickle-down effect to other bowls.Wright Waters, executive director of the Football Bowl Association, said Thursday that 10 to 14 bowls could be impacted by the delay in setting the Cotton Bowl matchup.The problem is not the number, its the number on that first weekend, Waters said.The first day of the bowl season is Dec. 17. There are six games, all involving Group of Five teams. Delaying setting those matchups until Dec. 11, when teams would have to be at a bowl site three days later, would create a logistical nightmare.The Navy issue is not the only one facing bowl organizers as they try to fill 80 spots for 40 games. Several conferences, including the Pac-12, Big 12 and Big Ten, do not have enough bowl-eligible teams to fill all their contracted spots. There will be at least a couple of 5-7 teams competing in bowl games this season. North Texas and Mississippi State are in line to get bowl bids with sub-.500 records because of their Academic Progress Rate scores, but they will have to wait until all the teams that qualified with six victories are accommodated. Army, an independent, is also in the mix, no matter how it does against Navy.Whats occurring this year is not necessarily different than what occurs every year at this time, MAC Commissioner Jon Steinbrecher said. You have different parties exploring different scenarios.If Navy does not end up in the Cotton Bowl, it is contracted to play in the Armed Forces Bowl in Fort Worth, Texas, on Dec. 23. If Navy goes to the Cotton, the American would not have enough bowl-eligible teams to fill all its spots, which is how the Cure Bowl in Orlando, Florida, on Dec. 17 could be affected by all this.Swapping out Western Michigan for Navy in the Armed Forces Bowl might be part of a solution. There is also a spot the Big Ten cannot fill in the Heart of Dallas Bowl on Dec. 27 that would be a good fit for Western Michigan if it falls out of the New Years Six.ESPN owns and operates 11 bowls, all of which involve Group of Five schools, and it will be involved in putting the postseason puzzle together, too.There are a few twists that could be a little more complex, American Athletic Conference Commissioner Mike Aresco said, but for the most part its not going to involve the whole system.---Follow Ralph D.

IOWA CITY, Iowa -- Dont count Wisconsin out of the Big Ten West race just yet.Corey Clement ran for 134 yards and a touchdown and the 10th-ranked Badgers used a stout defense to beat Iowa 17-9 on Saturday, snapping a two-game skid.Alex Hornibrook had 197 yards passing for the Badgers (5-2, 2-2 Big Ten), who won for the fourth straight time in Iowa City.Back-to-back losses to Ohio State and Michigan put Wisconsin in a hole in its own division. But the Badgers survived a late Iowa surge -- and next week they get division favorite Nebraska at home.They persevered. They kept playing, and they did it together, Wisconsin coach Paul Chryst said.Backup Bart Houston threw a touchdown pass for Wisconsin, and Clements 1-yard TD run put the Badgers up 14-6 midway through the third quarter.But Wisconsin was carried by its defense. The Badgers allowed just 236 yards on 60 plays and held the Hawkeyes (5-3, 3-2) without a touchdown for the first time all season -- just a week after they scored 49 points against Purdue.C.J. Beathard had 153 yards passing for Iowa, which lost its third straight at home.There were some plays that we left out there. That certainly didnt help our cause, Iowa coach Kirk Ferentz said.THE TAKEAWAYWisconsin: Chryst wasnt just giving lip service to Wisconsins perseverance. The Badgers overcame two missed field goals and a fumble that Iowa recovered in its own end zone, and their defense stopped Iowa 11 times on 13 third downs.Iowa: The Hawkeyes offense, which has been inconsistent at times this season, bottomed out. Beathard hardly had any open receivers -- and when he did, he missed them more than once. Iowas hopes for a run at the West title now seem dim, with Penn State, Michigan and Nebraska still on its schedule.POLL IMPLICATIONSWisconsin became the first team in 25 years to earn a top-10 ranking after losing back-to-back games. The Badgers likely wont movve up much unless some teams ahead of them suffer upsets.ddddddddddddPIVOTAL MOMENTDown 14-6 midway through the fourth quarter, Iowa finally found some life in the passing game. But the Hawkeyes drive stalled out at the Wisconsin 20, and Ferentz elected for a field goal to get within five. Freshman Keith Duncan pushed his kick wide right, though, and Clement broke a tackle in the backfield on 3rd-and-1 for a 34-yard gain with less than four minutes left. I thought we did a pretty good job of keeping him under control. Then he popped that one at the end, Ferentz said of Clement, who had 35 carries.THE ALMOST PIVOTAL MOMENTIowa appeared to pull to 17-12 with less than a minute left on a touchdown catch by freshman Noah Fant -- which was set up by a brilliant kick return from Desmond King. But the officials said the ball hit the turf during the process of the catch. The Hawkeyes elected to kick a field goal down 11 with 43 seconds left, but their subsequent on-side kick went out of bounds.HOUSTONS MOMENTHouston, the senior who had ceded the starting job to Hornibrook, was 4 of 6 passing for 59 yards and led the Badgers to their first touchdown. Houstons package included some read option plays, giving the Badgers a different look. For us to be the best team we can be, were going to need everyone, Chryst said. Bart gives us some stuff.UP NEXTWisconsin: The Badgers brutal stretch in the Big Ten continues next week when they host the Cornhuskers, who entered Saturday ranked eighth in the country. Wisconsin then travels to resurgent Northwestern before its schedule eases considerably in November.Iowa: The Hawkeyes get their bye next week. They open November with a night game on the road against the Nittany Lions.---Online: www.collegefootball.ap.org ' ' '
