Big Ten bowl projections heading into Week 14. The league is doing its best SEC impression as several teams are in the national spotlight.
Jim Delany’s conference is enjoying quite the renaissance.
Ohio State’s victory over Michigan on Saturday puts the Buckeyes squarely in the mix for a College Football Playoff bid, while Wisconsin and Penn State will battle in Indianapolis next week for a possible second bid for the league.
While nothing is guaranteed, it’s tough not to see Urban Meyer’s squad in the CFP this year because of its body of work. However, if the Buckeyes get shut out, there is no doubt that the league champ will get in.
Where does your favorite #B1G team fit in the postseason picture?
