According to Shehan Jeyarajah of CBSSports.com, despite their record and finishing the season as the No. 25 ranked team in the country, the Dukes are ineligible to play in a bowl game. NCAA rules require every program that moves up to the Football Bowl Subdivision undergo a two-year transition period, during which time programs are ineligible for postseason bowl games.
The Dukes will be in their second season of FBS play next year.
