B1G Week 8 bowl projections: Nebraska in danger of missing postseason

Week 8 in the Big Ten didn't look all that exciting on paper but turned out to be more interesting than expected. But did it change the bowl outlook all that much?

Not really, except for one team. We mentioned last week how Nebraska's victory at Minnesota was important for getting the Cornhuskers back into the postseason picture. But after yet another disappointing loss -- this time at home to Northwestern -- Nebraska simply can't feel good about its bowl chances at 3-5. Mike Riley's crew would have to go 3-1 over its final four games to qualify for a postseason spot, and with games left against a pair of undefeated teams in Michigan State and Iowa -- even though both are at home -- things look pretty dicey.
