A bye week didn’t change Jerry Palm’s opinions of the Hawkeyes or Wolverines.

In fact, his opinion on the B1G didn’t really change it all. He shifted Iowa to a different New Year’s Six game and Illinois, Minnesota and Nebraska were all shuffled in lower level bowls.

Other than that, there wasn’t much change for the B1G’s elite. The B1G is still the only conference Palm has in three New Year’s Six bowl games.

To see what Palm has for his entire projections, click here. Here’s the B1G selections he went with.

Orange Bowl: Ohio State vs. Clemson (College Football Playoff)

Rose Bowl: Michigan State vs. Stanford

Peach Bowl: Iowa vs. Houston

Citrus Bowl: Michigan vs. Florida

Outback Bowl: Northwestern vs. Texas A&M

Holiday Bowl: Wisconsin vs. Arizona State

Music City Bowl: Penn State vs. Mississippi State

Armed Forces Bowl: Minnesota vs. Air Force

Foster Farms Bowl: Illinois vs. UCLA

Pinstripe Bowl: Nebraska vs. Duke
