|-
| bowl_record_link || A wikilink to a detailed table of bowl records by conference, if such a table exists. Can be of the format #section_name if in the same article. Leave empty if no such table. || <code><nowiki>#Conference performance in bowl games</nowiki></code>

|-
| conference(1-12)_ap_poll || Number of ranked teams in the [[AP poll]] from conference number N, based on the '''final''' AP poll of the season. Timing of the final AP poll has varied; since 1968 (and in 1965) it's after bowls are completed; else it was at the end of the regular season. Leave blank if the final AP poll hasn't been released yet. || <code>2</code>
|-
| Note || Optional explanatory note to be displayed after the list of conferences. Should rarely be used. || <code>ACC and Mountain West had a no-contest</code>
|}
Note: Wins + Losses + Ties don't need to equal the total number of teams; this is an expected condition when a bowl season is active and not all bowl games have been played.

===Example===
Here is an example of one that is filled in. Only the first 11 conference numbers are filled in, but you could also have a twelfth conference if there were indeed 12 conferences to list.

Note: Generally conferences are ordered with the highest number of bowl representatives at the top and the lowest number of bowl representatives at the bottom.
