Good for Sean Clifford. Without a doubt in my mind the best game he played in his Penn State career and in his last game. He deserves all the praise he gets.
So PROUD of PENN STATE!!! I;m a UGA FAN who was SHATTERED by what they did to PENN and Joe PA and THOSE PLAYERS years back!!! VICTIMS of the TIME are now VICTORS 4 ALL TIMES!!!
@@whenthepainends I agree playing and winning the Rose Bowl is "great" --- winning a playoff game would be "amazing" --- winning the natty would be "mind blowing"
Don't know if they still say it, but welcome to the Rose Bowl, the granddaddy of them all!!! Another Big 10 Victory!!! Way to go Penn State Nittany Lions!!!
I grew up in the south as a huge PSU fan and I always pull for them against anybody. To say PSU would beat UGA or that would not have 42 scored against them is for losers. I take that back, it is for the birds. Can we say that osu would've beaten TCU? One can say what a person wants. Would UGA have beaten Bichigan? Again.....there we go playing that game. They maybe could win. But it is not happening now. If this was 1983 sure PSU wins that game forever. Let us just perhaps enjoy the title tilt on Monday. Btw, f....k osu and f.....k Bichigan.
@@rodolfohilliard1656 As you said, people can say what they want. We all have that right. But spelling is something that some people need to work at. I don't remember learning that Michigan was spelled with a "B" when I was in school. I guess it's a reflection of a generation gap, because it seems that most young people don't like school anymore.
IDK, Utah's close, just takes a little bit more to get into the CFP right now. There's always next year... ( and the rule change). Utah can consistently fight for top 8/10 and make the CFP 2-5 out of 10 years. Solid program you've built. You guys beat "SC" who along with psu I had 100 on in April to win a natty lol and earned the rose bowl but coudn't stop them boys from S.C. :) Utah looked good, but I was wondering what they'd do with Singleton. Remember Saquon had a game in the '16 Rose Bowl and I guarantee Nick was watching that tape every night. He's going to that level which is hard to prepare for or stop.
I think Utah wanted it just as badly, but didn't have the depth or athleticism to compete with Penn State. Their secondary was exposed, and they don't have a game breaker like Singleton.
@@kchall5 They wanted it just as bad until Cam went out. He has this moxie that you could tell just got sucked out of the stadium soon as he was gone. They've also had a rash of injuries including probably their 4 best players before the game and Cam being hurt, they just couldn't get it done. Just wasn't their night especially with Penn State getting some absolutely back breaking plays. C'est la vie.
Um excuse you the only moment we lost momentum and likely the game was when Rising went out. Until that moment we were there with Penn st. Momentum swung hard to Penn st when cam went down. Nothing to do with us wanting it less. We just didn't have the weapons to keep it close. And our defense got fatigued.
@@kpjmolly5186 not just this game, they where for the most part epic games with nail bitting last minute wins. The Utes where in it for the first half. Great run defence and pass protection
That won’t happen until they get a better head coach. Franklin appears to be a nice guy but definitely not a championship coach. He’s a good fit for teams like Vanderbilt that aren’t expected to win. (Got a free pass on the whole players gang raping a young lady and we know why he got that pass). Again he isn’t and won’t ever lead a team to a championship.
For some reason I like the rose bowl better than the other bowl games.Its like the mother of all bowl games and its been around since 1902.Definitely the oldest of all bowls.Them classic pac-12 teams vs big ten teams.A couple of times the Rose Bowl games have produced national champions on football like when Michigan beat Washington St in the 1997 season and when Texas beat Southern California in 2005 season for Texas's national championship win.Cant wait til next year's Rose Bowl in 2024 because I will more likely be there and I don't care who plays just as long as I'm there live. 👍.
Well said! The Rose Bowl has so much history and tradition! It was the Bowl Game that my mother always talked about when I was a child, especially if the Wolverines of Michigan were playing in it! Years ago, before the way it is now, teams looked forward to the Rose, Orange, Cotton and the Fiesta Bowls more than most others, but still were excited to go to a Bowl Game just the same! I kind of miss the way it was. Memories. Now that Michigan lost to TCU, this championship game with Georgia and TCU is just another game to watch. It doesn't matter to me who wins. I will ALWAYS be a Michigan, Penn State and Florida State fan first! But everyone deserves to win sometimes. Happy 😊 New Years! 🕊️ ✌️

Congratulations Penn State you played well. Utah is a tough well coached team and the deserved Pac 12 Champs. You guys finished 3rd in the east. Penn State only lost 2 games. Michigan and Ohio State both Playoff teams that lost close wild games. Ohio State should have won and played well.. Michigan laid an egg. Penn State took care of business. Big ten East is a bit of a gauntlet so you guys did well. GO BLUE
Good for Penn State. I remember us playing that stifling DL, maybe the best we saw. I thought Utah may win this one, but way to represent the B1G after OSU and Michigan fall short. I still can't believe Michigan embarrassed PSU so badly. This team is really good.
The D Coordinator was at fault...the only thing that matters at the end of the game is the score...and halfway into the 3rd Mish gets those back-to-back td runs from Corum. Prior to those runs the score was respectable. D Coordinator should have sold out to stop the run but he didn't.
@@YTSparty Despite the stats we were ahead at one point ...a third of those rushing yards came in those two 60+ yds td runs. Shut the run down and make Mish beat you through the air... that's what I would've tried.
Top 10 is closer to the truth. I do agree that they are overlooked, especially being in the Big 10 where Big Blue and the Buckeyes reside. Lots to look forward to in 2023!!!
@Kev what's wrong with you? They'd beat Bama and walk all over tn. Utah didn't deserve to be on the same field as psu. As soon as the 2nd half came, it was lights out. They pulled most starters with 10 to go or it would have been 49-14. Osu and MI both choked. MI is the best team in the country. Psu would have beaten tcu.
I'm glad penn state won, but, I was hoping they would have played Alabama in a bowl game, it would have been tough for both teams. I'm a penn state fan, I like when they play the toughest team, not taking anything from Utah as they are very good, bama is just on another level.
The Big Ten really be representing at the end of the year in these bowl games they have a good record every year I keep telling people the Big 10 is not as soft as you think it is
The conference has won 1 of its last 6 playoff appearances. Both playoff teams lost. Both division winners lost. Penn State was the only legit redeeming win.
Let's get Uche Nwaneri to 100k before the year ends. He passed away today at the age of 38 and the people who know him are trying to get him that Play Button for his family.
If you watch closely, it was mainly one player...FS #11. Even the typically oblivious national crew pointed that out. Should have been benched after his 3rd big play given up and 2nd TD. He was simply awful all night. Took every bad angle, got caught looking in the backfield, and was out of position repeatedly. Looked like a deer in the headlights. I guess there was a reason he didn't play until he was a senior.
Its funny how alabama, Tennessee, Utah, n usc all ranked ahead of PSU with the same or worse records. PSUs only 2 losses to 2 of the 4 in the college football playoff. Disrespectful
Both teams were in it right to the end. Losing by one to georgia. And six to tcu. Those are pretty damned evenly matched. Penn State got a bit of a screw job. But they made up for it.
Penn State also only had one 1-score win. They looked shakey in their win against NW in the remnants of a hurricane, but outside of that, they dominated their entire schedule aside from the playoff teams
I'm NOT Penn State - but I root for them! I'm a Pitt grad, lived in W-Pa, father in law a PSUgrad, but not into sports. Moved to Altoona in the 90s, Altoona comm theatre - wonderful friends!!! At a stop light one morning, I pulled alongside a pickup, big chrome bumpers and little sticker stating: God is a Penn State fan, as the sky is Blue & White. An elderly couple in the truck, and I got her to roll down the window where I told her I noticed the msg on their bumper. We both were smiling, then I said, But really, God's a Pitt Panther fan, as on a bright, sunny day the skies are Blue & Gold -- and the look this sweet gramma gave me, you know the saying: Looks could KILL - her smile was gone, replaced by a nasty skowel, and it felt like rigor-mortis was setting in on my left side!!! And I said to myself, Well, looks like they take their football seriously here in Happy Valley!! I became PSU fan, esp after they joined the Big 10, and Pitt was no longer in their schedule. This was a GREAT victory for Penn State, esp the Coach!! The Rose Bowl IS the Gran-Daddy of the Bowl games, and I'm so happy for the Blue&White!
I am on some PSU facebook chat sites. Many of the alum have slagged Clifford and Franklin mercilessly the past 2 years. I always showed support in my posts. This is a LONG game. Clifford got real redemption yesterday, and at the end of his career. PSU will, IMO, be top three in August polls, and will deserve that potential going into next season...
Love PSU since I was a kid watching games at my soccer coaches house who went to psu in the early 70’s. They played great and I’m happy for Clifford. I can’t stand osu or Michigan but always cheers for them in bowl games. I thought osu had a tough game but I’m really disappointed by how Michigan’s defense played. They should have comfortably won that game.
USC Fan In The House:"EvenThough My Team Lost Today Vs Tulane But Hey A Big Congratulations To Penn State For Winning The Rose Bowl, Continue To Keep Yall Heads Up Much Love and Respect."
@S W Don't be so obtuse . Admit your glaring error so stop exaggerating. Iowa not only pounded it for a whopping 3 TDs on offense but their TOUGH AS GRANTE Defense was a most manly, fierce, ferocious, Big 10 force that completely shut out the flacid, impotent, weak and worthless opposing team. Case closed. - The Teacher who corrects all who have the bad habit of exaggeration! Class dismissed.
@@ernestkovach3305 Iowa scored 1 touchdown on offense. The other 14 points came from the 2 interceptions and pick-6s. Iowas defense bailed out their non-existent offenses just as they did all year. Class dismissed.
Was a pretty competitive game until Rising went down. Wondering if he finished off his ACL. Will never understand how Utah's FS #11 wasn't benched after giving up his 3rd, game-changing, big play and 2nd TD. He just looked lost all game. I guess there's a reason he didn't see the field until his senior year.
I don't... our defense is trash.. we could have beat these bums with a half decent defense. Hope next year we get some doggs on defense and coaches who can call a defense
After watching PSU play their first couple games, this year, I predicted they were going to win the National Championship. Didn't quite work out that way, but still a stellar season!
Def should’ve showed the play where Rising got injured. Huge play in the game. PSU was up 21-14 when he went out and it def looked like PSU still would’ve won but it probably would’ve been closer.
I agree, but what I think whittingham should have done instead was maybe put in Nate Johnson instead of Bryson Barnes, because Bryson Barnes is not very good at all
Stuff like that can kill a team's momentum and morale. You just hate to see it in big bowls like this. Congrats to Penn State though on the win, from an Iowa fan.
@@michaelhession2105 Please. Utah has come back multiple times this season. They are typically a much better 2nd-half team. Game was far from over until Rising went down.
@@galehess6676 Unfortunately, I do not have any sort of relationship with him. I just do not think he is that good. He was called a dual threat quarterback in hs, but is extremely slow compared to the rest of college.
@@Nicetry9999 It's Utah bro.... you guys are in arguably the weakest power 5 conference. Utah always chokes, they can't contend with the big boys only the weak pac 12
Penn state got payback. Utah took their ranking for no reason . PSU only losses were to the number 2&3 ranked in the country. Yet so many other teams got the nod for higher spots. Good for them showing they arent pushovers
RONALD RUSSELL: Yes, the Lions helped the Big 10 go 5-4 this bowl season...The PAC-12 hippies simply hallucinate to 2-6... But wait!...Both the UCLA Bruins and the Trojans of USC lost, but they want to "chill out" in the Big 10 during 2023... Thanks, Ronald...Happy New Year...
@Derrick Well, the Bruins and the Trojans are still PAC-12 hippies... But wait!...How often do they plan to fly over Boulder, Colorado, to get some marijuana, Derrick?.. Hasn't Deion Sanders become the coach for the Buffaloes of Colorado?... Happy New Year....
Second time Ive traveled to Pasadena to watch the Utes. Second time I've watched em lose. And I love the team so much I'd go again. Good game to Penn State.
Utah fans still like to say this happened because of the injury to Cam. Umm look at your second half defense Penn ran right over you guys. Has nothing to do with an injured QB
A curious Packer fan after hearing all the negativity about this kid that he isn't that good. I beg to differ. The Packers did a good job drafting this QB and that decision has been proven right early on.
Compared to most quarterbacks on TV this week Rising was not impressive, but he played very smart up until he decided to risk a gang tackle rather than slide for an easy first down. Utah front beat Penn States both ways in the first half which as a PSU fan surprised me. PSU offense played an uncharacteristic mistake free game. Add Utah giving up the big plays and an inferior back up, the results weren't surprising.
Yeah, this comment makes complete sense and I agree with basically everything here as a Utah fan. I think Kyle whittingham should have put in Nate Johnson as the quarterback and there would've maybe been more competition because if I'm going to be honest with you, Bryson Barnes sucks really bad and is definitely not better than Nate Johnson
@@Quiddarius Thanks and no clue about your backup QB situation. Just know that Clifford played the best game of his life! He's like that catcher who manages his pitchers well but struggles hitting. You could bring in a better hitter but that screws with plate management. Tonight he hit the cycle.
@@Quiddarius bryson is the 2nd best qb at utah. If kyle liked him he would be on scholarship right now. Kyle would rather start a different qb but he knows bryson is the best they got.
People better stop doubting us give us another year or two and we’ll be back to one of the best teams in all of college football. Mark my words 💯 WE ARE‼️
Congrats Penn State and Utah. Utes your uniforms remind of Indiana, I think Penn State thought you were Indiana and believed and had confidence right away.
2017 Rose Bowl USC def. Penn St after coming back from 2 scores down 2023 Cotton Bowl Tulane def. USC coming back from 2 scores down 2023 Rose Bowl Penn St def. Utah I guess karma strikes one way or another
That's quite an astute observation! It was great to watch USC lose and Penn State win in the same day. I was at that 2017 Rose Bowl game, that was a heartbreaker. We Are!!
One of my favorite teams is any team that plays against Utah. Congratulations Penn State for sending the Utes back to Utah with their heads hanging low.
Can you imagine if they would have faced USC for the USC vs Penn State Rosebowl 2? Since Penn State loss the first time in 2027 to USC. That would’ve been EPIC!
Just ask yourself. When most of the College teams from major conferences run the same "system" that University of Hawaii ran in 2007. They criticized Colt Brennan for going 12-0 as a "system QB". They scored 48 points on average that year and have been running this type of system for over 20 years. Remember when Penn St. ran more of a run , power type offense? Guess what system they are running now? QB in shotgun, 4 or 5 receivers, it's the same SYSTEM that everyone was criticizing UH for 20 years ago. They blamed poor refereeing on major college losses, or some other excuse. When most of your major college teams and Pro teams are running the same system, it's time to give credit where credit was due, to a system that took football 20 years to catch up on. You score more than the opponent, that's what you do, that's the only way to win.
Buckeye fan here congratulations to Penn State Nation and their fans. Well deserved victory. See you guy's Oct 21st

I'm a big Penn State fan, and I do think they are top 5 worthy, but not until they learn how to take care of Ohio State!
Michigan learned how to once Penn state learns that’ll be bad for us
me too
Utah my heart is breaking. Wish I'd been there live.
Bama fan here. Congrats on a nice win.
I'm glad penn state won, but, I was hoping they would have played Alabama in a bowl game, it would have been tough for both teams. I'm a penn state fan, I like when they play the toughest team, not taking anything from Utah as they are very good, bama is just on another level.
@@Me-rn4yt it would have been a really cool matchup because the 2 programs have major history against each other. 👍
That's the way you do it there boyy congratulations 🎉 see ya next season
Penn State doing their part to show that Big 10 still plays hard nosed football
And a few tackes in there too, which were missing from previous 40 bowl games.
If only the big ten would stop screwing everyone over but mich and Ohio state that would be great....
And will never compare to the SEC
@@realitylime4896 play in the snow, or the cold.... then come talk to us....
@@realitylime4896 Auburn would like a word
The Big Ten really be representing at the end of the year in these bowl games they have a good record every year I keep telling people the Big 10 is not as soft as you think it is
That would be The Big Ten is really representing.
OSU, Michigan and Purdue lost. I'm not sure what conference you're watching.
Well except for the two games that actually mattered
The conference has won 1 of its last 6 playoff appearances. Both playoff teams lost. Both division winners lost. Penn State was the only legit redeeming win.
WE ARE PENN STATE. WATCH OUT nation for 2023 the Lions will Roar
And purrrrrrr to Michigan and bla ohio state. Had ohio state learned how to spell their state yet?
Best running backs in the nation
Let's hope so
Probably harbaugh bailing and Ohio st Ryan Day soft looks great for penn st to win big ten next year!
@@JustN0pe3we both beat you it’s osu 4th time y’all always take 3rd wheel in the big ten to Osu and Michigan
Let's get Uche Nwaneri to 100k before the year ends. He passed away today at the age of 38 and the people who know him are trying to get him that Play Button for his family.
Utahs defense absolutely shredded by PSU - especially in the 2nd half ...and you can't expect to beat PSU with multiple turnovers!
If you watch closely, it was mainly one player...FS #11. Even the typically oblivious national crew pointed that out. Should have been benched after his 3rd big play given up and 2nd TD. He was simply awful all night. Took every bad angle, got caught looking in the backfield, and was out of position repeatedly. Looked like a deer in the headlights. I guess there was a reason he didn't play until he was a senior.
@@matthewowen4508 hard to blame that on one out of position guy. Every team has to make adjustments in Dec.
@@Larry-vc5qv Exactly! You cannot blame just 1 player and make him the scapegoat. The whole team fell flat, especially in the 4th quarter.
Its funny how alabama, Tennessee, Utah, n usc all ranked ahead of PSU with the same or worse records. PSUs only 2 losses to 2 of the 4 in the college football playoff. Disrespectful
Both teams that beat them lost in the playoffs
Both teams were in it right to the end. Losing by one to georgia. And six to tcu. Those are pretty damned evenly matched. Penn State got a bit of a screw job. But they made up for it.
@@lilcourtny08 better than the losses alabama, Tennessee, utah, n usc suffered. Look em up.
Who both lost
Penn State also only had one 1-score win. They looked shakey in their win against NW in the remnants of a hurricane, but outside of that, they dominated their entire schedule aside from the playoff teams
Let’s go baby! Glad Clifford had a great game💯
I'm NOT Penn State - but I root for them! I'm a Pitt grad, lived in W-Pa, father in law a PSUgrad, but not into sports. Moved to Altoona in the 90s, Altoona comm theatre - wonderful friends!!! At a stop light one morning, I pulled alongside a pickup, big chrome bumpers and little sticker stating: God is a Penn State fan, as the sky is Blue & White. An elderly couple in the truck, and I got her to roll down the window where I told her I noticed the msg on their bumper. We both were smiling, then I said, But really, God's a Pitt Panther fan, as on a bright, sunny day the skies are Blue & Gold -- and the look this sweet gramma gave me, you know the saying: Looks could KILL - her smile was gone, replaced by a nasty skowel, and it felt like rigor-mortis was setting in on my left side!!! And I said to myself, Well, looks like they take their football seriously here in Happy Valley!! I became PSU fan, esp after they joined the Big 10, and Pitt was no longer in their schedule. This was a GREAT victory for Penn State, esp the Coach!! The Rose Bowl IS the Gran-Daddy of the Bowl games, and I'm so happy for the Blue&White!
I am on some PSU facebook chat sites. Many of the alum have slagged Clifford
and Franklin mercilessly the past 2 years. I always showed support in my posts.
This is a LONG game. Clifford got real redemption yesterday, and at the end of his career.
PSU will, IMO, be top three in August polls, and will deserve that potential going into
next season...
Way to represent the Big Ten in a major bowl PSU!
Thanks for beating Utah Penn State Congrats for winning the Rose Bowl
Pls pull through young man 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

We are.............. Penn State!!!!

@@ardentlions6636 Yeah...gps.
Love PSU since I was a kid watching games at my soccer coaches house who went to psu in the early 70’s. They played great and I’m happy for Clifford. I can’t stand osu or Michigan but always cheers for them in bowl games. I thought osu had a tough game but I’m really disappointed by how Michigan’s defense played. They should have comfortably won that game.
USC Fan In The House:"EvenThough My Team Lost Today Vs Tulane But Hey A Big Congratulations To Penn State For Winning The Rose Bowl, Continue To Keep Yall Heads Up Much Love and Respect."
Good game by two solid teams
Most physical Big ten team of the bowl season
Iowa on line 1 .
@@ernestkovach3305 He said team, not defense alone lmao. Iowa's offense couldn't score points against my 4yo.
@S W Don't be so obtuse . Admit your glaring error so stop exaggerating. Iowa not only pounded it for a whopping 3 TDs on offense but their TOUGH AS GRANTE Defense was a most manly, fierce, ferocious, Big 10 force that completely shut out the flacid, impotent, weak and worthless opposing team. Case closed.
- The Teacher who corrects all who have the bad habit of exaggeration!
Class dismissed.
@@ernestkovach3305 Iowa scored 1 touchdown on offense. The other 14 points came from the 2 interceptions and pick-6s. Iowas defense bailed out their non-existent offenses just as they did all year.
Class dismissed.
Iowa lost to Nebraska.
Had flashbacks of 1994 and kijana Carter in the same bowl.
Exactly 28 years to the day.
Was a pretty competitive game until Rising went down. Wondering if he finished off his ACL. Will never understand how Utah's FS #11 wasn't benched after giving up his 3rd, game-changing, big play and 2nd TD. He just looked lost all game. I guess there's a reason he didn't see the field until his senior year.
As a USC I feel just a bit better. Thank you Penn State good job
I don't... our defense is trash.. we could have beat these bums with a half decent defense. Hope next year we get some doggs on defense and coaches who can call a defense
No offense but USC lost today too y'know
Bro your team lost to Tulane .
@@jayrocky9067 I watch Lincoln Reily coach in Oklahoma for 5 years. I got bad news for you, this defense is as good as it gets under this guy...
How did mighty USC sphincter up against friggin' Tulane?
Penn State T-formation throws everyone into confusion. Bit of nostalgia.
After watching PSU play their first couple games, this year, I predicted they were going to win the National Championship. Didn't quite work out that way, but still a stellar season!
Def should’ve showed the play where Rising got injured. Huge play in the game. PSU was up 21-14 when he went out and it def looked like PSU still would’ve won but it probably would’ve been closer.
I agree, but what I think whittingham should have done instead was maybe put in Nate Johnson instead of Bryson Barnes, because Bryson Barnes is not very good at all
yOU SOUND LIKE THE usc FANS.
Stuff like that can kill a team's momentum and morale. You just hate to see it in big bowls like this. Congrats to Penn State though on the win, from an Iowa fan.
The game turned before that injured happened. It turned on the 87-yard TD run by Singleton.
@@michaelhession2105 Please. Utah has come back multiple times this season. They are typically a much better 2nd-half team. Game was far from over until Rising went down.
Way to represent the BIG10! My OSU and Michigan couldn't close the deal.
Yeah hopefully next year penn st can win natty for big 10 with allar at QB!
Allar has been very under performing on his minimal game time. Don’t be surprised if he lets down Penn state next year
I'm so glad OSU couldn't close the deal cause I'm sick and tried of hearing their names ringing just like Notre Dame.... You Feel Me
@@ahrhebbx2239 maybe telling him to be conservative and not make mistakes, which is good development
@@galehess6676 Unfortunately, I do not have any sort of relationship with him. I just do not think he is that good. He was called a dual threat quarterback in hs, but is extremely slow compared to the rest of college.
Rose Bowl Champs !!
Utah is a tough, physical team, but Penn State had more talent and depth. Losing Rising was the killer blow.
I 100% agree, this game would've been way better if rising stayed the entire time
Was not impressed with Rising. Very pedestrian stats
So how do you say more talent for penn state. Makes no sense. I love computer keyboard analysts.
@@Nicetry9999 we have better recruits and our defense is just wayyy better than Utahs poverty pac 12 defense so yeah. Don’t be salty
@@Nicetry9999 It's Utah bro.... you guys are in arguably the weakest power 5 conference. Utah always chokes, they can't contend with the big boys only the weak pac 12
Penn State should be preseason top 3 team going into the 2023 season. Team is loaded!! National Championship is the GOAL!!
The Slugo at 6:40 was a thing of beauty.
My favorite play
penn st proved me wrong , if they werent in the hardest division in college football theyre a playoff team easily
We are… PENN STATE!!! 🌹
Penn State using the old T-formation or Fullhouse someone must have dusted off Joe Pa's old playbook and a nice tribute to Franco Harris.
Franco, Mitchell, Pittman. Best college backfield ever.
Penn state got payback. Utah took their ranking for no reason . PSU only losses were to the number 2&3 ranked in the country. Yet so many other teams got the nod for higher spots. Good for them showing they arent pushovers
But according to penn state fans ohio state and michigan are overrated so no... and they were pushovers to both those teams
@@AspectPlayzGamez I don't think anyone in the big 10 is overrated. And not only that the Ohio Penn State game was actually pretty good
The only big 10 ten that didn’t choke! Great job lions!
Lol that's so sad. The big10 is supposed to be equal to the SEC
B1G went 5-4 in bowls. Maryland, Wisconsin, Iowa, Minnesota & Penn State all Ws.
Yep, OSU lost on missed on missed FG against a team that was supposed to crush them !!

But wait!...Both the UCLA Bruins and the Trojans of USC lost, but they want to "chill out" in the Big 10 during 2023...
Thanks, Ronald...Happy New Year...
@@thomasboushier2972 Right ... I hope they understand what they're getting into.

Second time Ive traveled to Pasadena to watch the Utes. Second time I've watched em lose. And I love the team so much I'd go again. Good game to Penn State.
Good game.
Ohio state loses ,Michigan loses and Penn state wins the rose bowl!!!I love it
Utah fans still like to say this happened because of the injury to Cam. Umm look at your second half defense Penn ran right over you guys. Has nothing to do with an injured QB
That Singleton 87 yard run gave me a Ki-Jana flashback
I thought the same thing! Only difference was no one touched Ki Jana
A curious Packer fan after hearing all the negativity about this kid that he isn't that good. I beg to differ. The Packers did a good job drafting this QB and that decision has been proven right early on.
Sean Clifford was impressive.
Nothing better than to see the Utes get beat. Penn State more physical, stronger. Lines pushed Utah all over!
Compared to most quarterbacks on TV this week Rising was not impressive, but he played very smart up until he decided to risk a gang tackle rather than slide for an easy first down. Utah front beat Penn States both ways in the first half which as a PSU fan surprised me. PSU offense played an uncharacteristic mistake free game. Add Utah giving up the big plays and an inferior back up, the results weren't surprising.
Yeah, this comment makes complete sense and I agree with basically everything here as a Utah fan. I think Kyle whittingham should have put in Nate Johnson as the quarterback and there would've maybe been more competition because if I'm going to be honest with you, Bryson Barnes sucks really bad and is definitely not better than Nate Johnson
@@Quiddarius Thanks and no clue about your backup QB situation. Just know that Clifford played the best game of his life! He's like that catcher who manages his pitchers well but struggles hitting. You could bring in a better hitter but that screws with plate management. Tonight he hit the cycle.
shoot. I was very impressed with his running but his wr were outmanned, simply overmatched... read up on PSU D
@@Quiddarius bryson is the 2nd best qb at utah. If kyle liked him he would be on scholarship right now. Kyle would rather start a different qb but he knows bryson is the best they got.
Pac12 fans said Penn State was the most overrated team in the country. That didn’t age well! 😂
People better stop doubting us give us another year or two and we’ll be back to one of the best teams in all of college football. Mark my words 💯 WE ARE‼️
Singleton is the real deal. Best back since Saquon!
That Singleton run 👀
Glad PSU got the win, but I wish Utah's QB didn't get injured, would've made this game closer probably
Utah was doing a lot of chirping pregame, certain they would defeat the 3rd best team from the Big Ten.
hahah penn state fans knew (as much as you could) that singleton etc. would find a way and wow did they ever . interceptions !
Utah fans are annoying
WE ARE
Always watch Rose bowl after the parade on ABC it's very different this year
That Utah uni is one of the best in CFB.
Congrats Penn State and Utah. Utes your uniforms remind of Indiana, I think Penn State thought you were Indiana and believed and had confidence right away.
Love the way penn state runs their o
Well, at least Penn State won one for the Conference. Nice work!
should’ve been ranked higher than utah their only losses were to top 4 playoff teams
this the Utah team that played against florida in the opener , not the utah team that beat Usc twice and won the pac 12
🎉LET’S GO PENNSTATE!!🎉
2017 Rose Bowl
USC def. Penn St after coming back from 2 scores down
2023 Cotton Bowl
Tulane def. USC coming back from 2 scores down
2023 Rose Bowl
Penn St def. Utah
I guess karma strikes one way or another
That's quite an astute observation! It was great to watch USC lose and Penn State win in the same day. I was at that 2017 Rose Bowl game, that was a heartbreaker. We Are!!
WE ARE PENN STATE!!
The Utes didn't want that win, Fellow Utah fan here btw
One of my favorite teams is any team that plays against Utah. Congratulations Penn State for sending the Utes back to Utah with their heads hanging low.
They’re fans are trash. I know. I saw my team @ Utah.
WE ARE~~~🎆🎆
Congratulations Nittany Lions

Penn state rbs are always insnae
Just ask yourself. When most of the College teams from major conferences run the same "system" that University of Hawaii ran in 2007. They criticized Colt Brennan for going 12-0 as a "system QB". They scored 48 points on average that year and have been running this type of system for over 20 years. Remember when Penn St. ran more of a run , power type offense? Guess what system they are running now? QB in shotgun, 4 or 5 receivers, it's the same SYSTEM that everyone was criticizing UH for 20 years ago. They blamed poor refereeing on major college losses, or some other excuse. When most of your major college teams and Pro teams are running the same system, it's time to give credit where credit was due, to a system that took football 20 years to catch up on. You score more than the opponent, that's what you do, that's the only way to win.
Those mid-major teams usually do pretty well in the first half, but can’t hang around in the second half.
