per Marcus:

The Big Ten bowl committees, like the rest of the country, will be curious to see how the first year of the College Football Playoff plays out.

But not having the ability to pick their teams is the really big change.

Programs like the University of Minnesota, starving for the first New Year's Day bowl since the 1962 Rose Bowl, have fans more glued to the bowl selection process than in years past.

That's because the opportunity to play in a better bowl -- not in Texas again -- is realistic.

"You've got that first tier of Big Ten bowls (Citrus, Outback and Holiday), I would be surprised if Minnesota wasn't in that," Citrus Bowl representative Dave Korducki said Monday. "I think they are going to be right in the middle of that top three after the playoff."
