Am I a bowl team?

Dr. Saturday has a little quiz up for his readers that all WVU fans should enjoy. Based on the facts below, is this team bowl bound?

 I started fast with a 3-1 start in September, but didn't win back-to-back games again for the rest of the season and dropped three of the last four in November.

 I began the year by allowing 52 points on 444 yards rushing in my first game against a I-A opponent, and ended by allowing 52 points on 517 yards passing in the season finale, both road losses.

 I produced a 1,000-yard rusher for the fourth time in five years and once produced two separate 100-yard rushers in the same game despite an injury to the starting running back, but finished in the bottom half of the conference in every major offensive category.

 I was outscored by 3.1 points per game, and outgained on average by a little more than 37 yards.

 I failed to finish in the top half of the country (60th or better) in any major statistical category except scoring defense (59th), sacks (60th) and sacks allowed (60th).

 I fired my head coach at the conclusion of the regular season for failing to produce a winning conference record in five years at the helm, after his predecessor finished at least two games above .500 every season.

So ... am I a bowl team?

I hear Detroit is a very nice city to visit, especially at this time of the year.
