Brett McMurphy has come out with some more bowl projections after Week 3’s games. His projections come from Action Network.

There are 12 B1G teams who will be making a bowl game this season at this point, according to McMurphy. Much like Week 2’s projections, he still has 2 B1G teams in the College Football Playoff.

In Week 3’s projections, McMurphy has 7 teams from the B1G East, and 5 B1G West teams making the postseason. One big change is that he no longer has Michigan State going to a New Year’s Six bowl.

The only schools that he believes will not be making a bowl game from the B1G are Northwestern and Nebraska.

Here are McMurphy’s projections following Week 3:

Illinois

  • Guaranteed Rate Bowl vs. Kansas

Indiana

  • Frisco Bowl vs. UCLA

Iowa

  • Pinstripe Bowl vs. Pitt

Maryland

  • Music City Bowl vs. Florida

Michigan

  • Peach Bowl (CFP) vs. Georgia

Michigan State

  • Duke’s Mayo Bowl vs. N.C. State

Minnesota

  • Citrus Bowl vs. Arkansas

Ohio State

  • Fiesta Bowl (CFP) vs. Alabama
