Game 15: Playstation Fiesta Bowl



Penn State plays Washington in this bowl played in Phoenix. Penn State has the Heisman finalist Saquon Barkley, the do everything running back. The criticism I've heard about Saquon is that he is an all or nothing back. In other words if you can contain him and prevent the long, explosive run, he will not beat you by grinding out four yards a carry. Washington has quarterback Jake Browning and a stellar defense. The Pac 12 has struggled in bowls this year however. And the Big 10 seems to be flexing a lot of muscle. I have the Nittany Lions and the guy that should have replaced Mack Brown as Texas coach, James Franklin. Penn State is the 2.5 point favorite in Vegas.

Playstation refers to the Sony Playstation video game console. I believe we have the 2nd and 4th editions. Matt used to play with friends over the internet. He wore a headset and would serenade his opponents with Rick Astley songs. Google "Rick Rolled" to get a sense of what Matt was doing to psyche out his opponents. Thumbs up to the Playstation, quality family entertainment.
