Daily News | Rose Bowl preview: Penn State and Utah meet for the first time ever
PASADENA, Calif. — Some say the “Granddaddy of Them All” has lost its allure in the College Football Playoff era. Several top players have opted out. There’s even a chance of rain in sunny Southern California on Monday night.
“It means everything, man. This game is legendary,” Penn State defensive tackle PJ Mustipher said. “It’s going to be a dream come true. … I don’t take this opportunity for granted. I’m ready to go play.”For the Nittany Lions to earn their second-ever Rose Bowl win, they will need to control the line of scrimmage. Utah plays like a Big Ten team, relying on its rushing attack and physicality on both sides of the ball for success.
