Penn State surges in second half to defeat Utah in Rose Bowl
, Rising sparked comeback wins with his creative guile and guts, which is why Utah had returned to Pasadena for a second straight new year, and why the Trojans were sent to the Cotton Bowl instead of competing in the College Football Playoff.
No. 11 Penn State won its second Rose Bowl, its first since a 1995 win over Oregon, 35-21 and left little doubt who the better team was on this day, regardless of Rising’s injury. No. 8 Utah became the first Pac-12 team to lose back-to-back Rose Bowls since USC in 1988 and 1989. Something seemed off — moody, almost — all afternoon in Pasadena. The gray skies. The chilly breeze. The clouds stationed over the San Gabriel Mountains, blocking the game’s trademark sunset like stubborn sentinels.
It really poured in the fourth quarter as Penn State thumped away to a 35-14 lead. Perhaps it was Mother Nature crying for the plight of Rising, who did not get to finish what he started for the second time in as many years.
