Can Freshman play in the bowl and NOT lose Red shirt?

I have been wondering about this... and it seems that post season is considered differnt than regular season.
My ASSUMPTION is that freshman that have "red shirted" this season can play in the bowl game and NOT lose the redshirt eligibility?
Does anyone KNOW for sure?
DD mentions this today and I think he has it wrong... but I'm not sure.

Why.... technically it's not part of the season?
I need more than opinion... somebody can find the NCAA rule on this, I'm sure.
Yes... I could Google it myself... but I don't want to...

I thought it's based on a % of plays. I think you can play a few plays and still reshirt but I could also be totally wrong as well see. Glad to help.

Travis Daniels gave up his redshirt in the 2001 SECCG. I think it was because Ronnie Prude got hurt. That's not a bowl game though.

you play one play anytime in any game you lose your red shirt. There are some exceptions to the rule if you do not play too many games early in the year,injuries,etc. They are too numerous for me to type so you'll need to look them up and then get a compliance guy to explain them.

I thought it was pretty straight-forward:
1) Play in no games in your first year of eligibility
2) Request a medical hardship in any year where you played in less that 30% of the games in the first half of the season.
A medical hardship can give you a 6th year of eligibility if you also took a redshirt.

sorry..pdf's don't copy/paste too well
quote:
14.2.4 Hardship Waiver. A student-athlete may be granted an additional year of competition by the conference or the Committee on Student-Athlete Reinstatement for reasons of “hardship.” Hardship is defined as an incapacity resulting from an injury or illness that has occurred under all of the following conditions: (Revised:
8/8/02, 11/1/07 effective 8/1/08)
(a) The incapacitating injury or illness occurs in one of the four seasons of intercollegiate competition at any two-year or four-year collegiate institutions or occurs after the first day of classes in the student-athlete’s senior
year in high school; (Revised: 1/10/92 effective 8/1/92, 11/01/01, 8/8/02)
(b) The injury or illness occurs prior to the first competition of the second half of the playing season that
concludes with the NCAA championship in that sport (see Bylaw 14.2.4.3.4) and results in incapacity to compete for the remainder of that playing season; (Revised: 1/14/97 effective 8/1/97, 4/26/01 effective 8/1/01,
4/3/02, 4/24/08)
(c) In team sports, the injury or illness occurs when the student-athlete has not participated in more than three contests or dates of competition (whichever is applicable to that sport) or 30 percent (whichever number is greater) of the institution’s scheduled or completed contests or dates of competition in his or her sport. Only
scheduled or completed competition (including exempted events but excluding scrimmages and exhibition contests identified as such in the legislation) against outside participants during the playing season that concludes with the NCAA championship, or, if so designated, during the official NCAA championship playing season in that sport (e.g., spring baseball, fall soccer), shall be countable under this limitation in calculating both the number of contests or dates of competition in which the student-athlete has participated and the number of scheduled or completed contests or dates of competition during that season in the sport. Dates of competition that are exempted (e.g., alumni contests, foreign team in U.S.) from the maximum permissible number of contests or dates of competition shall count toward the number of contests or dates in which the student-athlete has participated and the number of scheduled or completed contests or dates of competition in the season, except for scrimmages and exhibition contests that are specifically identified as such in the sport’s Bylaw 17 playing and practice season regulations. Scrimmages and exhibition contests that are
not exempted from the maximum permissible number of contests or dates of competition may be excluded from the calculation only if they are identified as such in the sport’s Bylaw 17 playing and practice season
regulations; and (Revised: 1/10/92, 1/14/97 effective 8/1/97, 4/26/01 effective 8/1/01, 3/10/04, 5/11/05, 8/4/05,
4/26/07 applicable to student-athletes who initially enrolled full time in a collegiate institution on or after 8/1/03,
9/18/07, 4/24/08)

There are 3 circumstances to consider...
redshirt - didn't play 1 play, at all. can be taken any year during the 5, doesn't have to be first year
hardship waiver - played in 3, or 30%, whichever is greater, during first half of season and was injured or had an illness
granting of a 6th year of eligibility - done after 5 years has run out, player must of lost 2 or more seasons to injury or illness, redshirt years don't count

Not only is it not part of the season, but it is going to technically be 2011

So if we win does it count toward the 2010 season or 2011?

Life just isn't fair for you is it? You are way smarter than Les Miles and yet you are stuck draining those fries every day while Les lives in luxury.

The term "redshirt" is used to describe a student-athlete who does not participate in competition in a sport for an entire academic year.
First sentence from the NCAA link I posted.

I think the same thing happened to Craig Steltz in the Capital one bowl his freshmen year.
