Big Ten and ACC dominate college football bowl season

The Big Ten stands alone at the top of College Football for the third straight year. The Indiana Hoosiers captured their first title in program history, beating Miami 27-21 in a nailbiter. Indiana is the first team to go 16-0 in the expanded college football playoff era. With the win, The Big Ten Conference has dominated bowl season, going 11-5 for a .688 winning percentage. 

Conference representatives are in bold.
