Bowl Bound

Last night teams found out what Bowl Games they would be playing in to end their seasons. There will be 8 Big Ten teams earning bowl bids.  Ohio State and Wisconsin were picked to play in BCS games.  Rose Bowl bound Wisconsin will have to face TCU.  This game will hopefully prove to Ohio State President, Gordon Gee, if he was accurate when making his statement a couple weeks ago (read previous blog).  Ohio State will battle against Arkansas in the Sugar Bowl; Michigan State will go head-to-head with Alabama in the Capital One Bowl; the Outback Bowl will feature Penn State and Florida; Michigan will take on Mississippi State in the Gator Bowl; Iowa and Missouri will face off in the Insight Bowl; the Texas Bowl will see Illinois and Baylor; and Northwestern will play Texas Tech in the TicketCity Bowl.  I am really excited to see how these games play out. For the most part, I feel they are good match-ups and will hopefully prove to others who the strong conferences are.  It is pretty cool to see so many teams from one conference be bowl eligible and hopefully show others how deserving they are.
