As hard as it might be to believe, we’ve actually hit the halfway mark of the college football season. Time flies when you’re having fun, doesn’t it?

This week, CBS Sports released its midseason All-America team and the B1G had more selections than any other conference, leading the way with 7 players. The SEC had 6 players selected and there were 5 selections from the ACC.

Three players from the B1G came from the offensive side of the ball, with 2 more on both offense and special teams. Surprisingly, none of the selections were from Ohio State.

Michigan State and Iowa each had 2 selections, while Purdue, Michigan and Rutgers each had 1. Here’s a look at the 7 B1G players that made the cut.
