Behind a second-half scoring surge spearheaded by quarterback Sean Clifford and running back Nick Singleton, Penn State defeats Utah in the Rose Bowl.

It really poured in the fourth quarter as Penn State zoomed to a 35-14 lead. I just remember really falling in love with football, specifically falling in love with the quarterback position. For it to come full circle and then to just be a spoke in the wheel for this team in the Rose Bowl is just such a blessing.” I was in fifth grade, and my dad surprised me with the opportunity to fly out here with a really good friend of mine and his dad [for a camp].

PASADENA, Calif. (AP) — Utah's Cam Rising saw his dream of winning the Rose Bowl end early due to injury for the second straight season.

“We were able to get the big interception, you know, and I think that’s where the momentum of the game changed.” The last Pac-12 team to do that was Southern California in 1989. Last year against Ohio State, he hit his head hard on the turf in the fourth quarter and didn’t return to the game. Rising had been dealing with a left knee injury for most of the season. Rising got up and tried to take a couple steps before going down to the turf. The Utes though were unable to rally this time with Barnes under center. That’s the first thing we told our players when he came in. “We actually had a lot of respect for him. Utah was forced to punt on its next three drives and gained only 19 yards. He didn’t play in the Oct. “Looks like it could be something that takes a while to recover from. “It almost seemed we lost a little bit of our mojo when that happened.

Classés 8e au pays, les Utes terminent la saison avec un dossier de 10 victoires et 4 revers. Rising a également ajouté une passe de touché et une interception à sa fiche personnelle. Après une maigre récolte de 8 en 21 et 95 verges, il a été remplacé par Bryson Barnes.

Il assumera le rôle de grand homme sur le campus avec une barre assez haute à franchir après la façon dont Clifford a terminé la saison. Alors que Penn State doit remplacer Clifford derrière le centre, il y a un successeur bien soigné qui attend déjà dans les coulisses avec une expérience de jeu dans l’ancien cinq étoiles Drew Allar. Au début de la saison, beaucoup de gens n’avaient pas de grands espoirs pour nous – ils ne nous ont pas vraiment fait gagner quoi que ce soit”, a déclaré King. “Mais j’ai l’impression que cette saison, et cette victoire en particulier, nous a stimulé pour un bon départ l’année prochaine et a mis plus de respect sur Penn State en tant que programme.” En dehors de la course de touché de 19 verges dansante de Ja’Quinden Jackson au deuxième quart, une grosse offensive de jeu a été limitée à seulement trois courses de plus de 15 verges. Les seules défaites de Penn State en 2022 concernaient deux équipes éliminatoires du Michigan et de l’Ohio State, cette dernière ayant mené au quatrième quart. Les barres hautes ne sont pas nouvelles pour ce programme, qui compte des championnats nationaux dans l’armoire à trophées et un titre du Big Ten remporté il y a quelques années à peine sous la direction de son entraîneur-chef actuel. Son camarade de deuxième année KeAndre Lambert-Smith était une star offensive, enregistrant le plus long touché de l’histoire du Rose Bowl lorsqu’il a dépassé la ligne de but sur un 88 verges. Pourtant, au milieu de tous les éloges légitimes à la fin d’une carrière, il était également difficile de ne pas imaginer un passage de flambeau plus approprié pour l’équipe de James Franklin. Kaytron Allen a participé à sa propre course de touché et a failli donner aux Nittany Lions une paire de coureurs de première année de 1000 verges cette saison. C’était une conclusion appropriée pour une campagne 11-2 qui était l’une des meilleures du programme de mémoire récente – et elle est venue avec un trophée pour le prouver. Le quart-arrière de Penn State venait de donner la performance d’une vie et certainement l’une de ses meilleures dans les uniformes entièrement blancs qui brillaient encore plus malgré les conditions pluvieuses lors du 109e grand-père de tous lundi soir.
