The B1G bowl season and College Football Playoff are at the forefront of the conversation this week. Four teams from the B1G will be rounding out there season with a postseason matchup in the coming days.

Iowa would’ve been the fifth B1G squad in action, but the Music City Bowl matchup against Missouri was canceled because of COVID-19 concerns. Still, Indiana, Northwestern, Ohio State and Wisconsin will all be in action this week, as the B1G attempts to send a message to the college football world that, even though it didn’t play as many games as other leagues, it’s still a strong conference.

With the bowl games just around the corner, we’ve made a selections against the spread, which includes games featuring all four B1G teams, plus the two College Football Playoff games.
