This past weekend we had arguably the biggest game of the year down in Athens. In addition, the Selection Committee announced its first rankings for the 2022 campaign. Throw in several upsets and as a result, we’ve got a few changes in both the playoff and selection committee games. Those changes created a trickle-down effect, especially with the ACC and Big 10. With the preliminaries out of the way let’s get to our 2022 Week 10 Bowl Projections.
