Bowl projections: Big Ten has a problem at top, another at bottom

Related Topics: Ford Field, Big Ten Conference

The Big Ten has two bowl messes on its hands.

At the top, Ohio State, Wisconsin and Penn State all could claim a right to be the Big Ten's representative in the College Football Playoff.

If that continues, could it keep all three out? Or will the selection committee split hairs, like it did with Penn State, Michigan and Ohio State last season?

At the bottom, the pack of three- and four-win teams -- six in total -- are in trouble because most have at least two more likely losses, with games against the league's heavy hitters on tap.
