247Sports projects 11 B1G teams will earn bowl bid in 2022 season
Published:
If 247Sports’ summer predictions for the 2022 bowl season come to fruition, a lot of B1G fanbases will have something to cheer about.
This week, the website produced its latest edition of bowl projections for the upcoming college football season. The B1G had 11 teams represented on the list. That includes three teams — Michigan, Wisconsin and Ohio State — all earning New Year’s Six bowl bids.
The three teams that were not mentioned were Illinois, Indiana and Northwestern. All three failed to reach the postseason at the conclusion for the 2021 season, as well.
Here’s a look at the updated B1G bowl predictions from 247Sports:
Quick Lane Bowl: Rutgers vs. Central Michigan
First Responder Bowl: Minnesota vs. TCU
Birmingham Bowl: Maryland vs. Mississippi State
Guaranteed Rate Bowl: Purdue vs. Iowa State
Duke’s Mayo Bowl: Penn State vs. Louisville
Music City Bowl: Iowa vs. Arkansas
Pinstripe Bowl: Nebraska vs. Florida State
Citrus Bowl: Michigan State vs. Ole Miss
Rose Bowl: Michigan vs. USC
Orange Bowl: Wisconsin vs. Clemson
Fiesta Bowl (CFP semifinal): Ohio State vs. Georgia
National Championship: Ohio State vs. Alabama
Will Ohio State make the national championship game? DraftKings currently has Ohio State as the third best odds to win the championship. Ohio sports betting will be going live on January 1, 2023, so that would mean Ohio bettors would be able to bet on the championship game that is scheduled for January 10, 2023.
