Our friends over at College Football News have provided us with their updated bowl projections after the completion of Week 4 and it appears that the Ohio State Buckeyes’ position and standing have improved from last week, and that makes sense due to the impressive blowout win that Ohio State earned over the Wisconsin Badgers.
This past week was wild in the land of the Big Ten, in addition to the Buckeyes blowing out Wisconsin, the Michigan Wolverines came back to Earth a little against the Maryland Terrapins, and the Penn State Nittany Lions flexed their muscle against the Central Michigan Chippewas.
