No changes from either CBS Sports or 247 this week. Don’t expect too much to change next week either with Penn State on a bye. ESPN agrees with the bowl selection, but thinks it’ll be Wake Forest, not the Wolfpack. Then there’s SI, that thinks a return to the Cotton Bowl is in store for the Nittany Lions.
