Ohio State Football: Predictions for Big Ten bowl games

Penn State vs. Washington

TS  Saquon Barkley did not have the season that everyone expected.  Inconsistent play upfront derailed a season that could have been special.

That won’t matter in this game.

The Huskies defense has carried the team and they have the No. 1 rushing defense.  That won’t stop Penn State from pounding them into the ground.

This game won’t be close as the Nittany Lions start fast to build a big lead and cruise to 45-21 win.

CL  I disagree here, I think it will be a close game. Saquon Barkley has been limited when facing top-notch rushing defenses, and that is Washington’s strong suit.

Penn State will have to rely on Trace McSorely to score points and I think that will be a challenge.

I’ll give the Nittanly Lions the nod 23-17.
