By far the best game of an otherwise weak bowl season. Too many bad games this year, but the Rose Bowl was a doozy, even if my team lost.
I could feel it slipping away, as PSU got conservative offensively with a 14 point lead in the 4th quarter. Having watched PSU all year, they take a while to get in the groove, hence all the needs for 2nd half comebacks. Once they start playing like their hair is on fire, they play amazing, as the 7 TD's on 7 straight possessions will attest.
However, once you take your foot off the gas, this offense doesn't just start right up again, as demonstrated. Once PSU abandoned the pass, and just started running, trying to run out the clock, I knew they were in trouble. As McSorley's two early picks showed, he can't just "switch it on". When he's in a groove, you have to keep him in the groove.
Great game anyway! Congrats to USC, Darnold is a helluva a QB!
