Penn State defeated Washington, 35-28, in Saturday’s Fiesta Bowl behind brilliant play from star tailback Saquon Barkley.
Barkley, who may have played his last college game, ran for 137 yards and two touchdowns, including a 92-yard scamper. Trace McSorley threw for 342 yards and two touchdowns as the Nittany Lions finished the season 11-2.

Predicting the Fiesta Bowl
by Joe Boozell | NCAA.com
No. 11 Washington vs. No. 9 Penn State
When Washington loses, it loses close. When it wins, it smokes foes – the Huskies just beat Washington State by 27 and pasted Oregon State, California and Oregon by 30-plus points. Penn State is better than those teams — but it feels like the Huskies are better than their record indicates.
And at 10-2, their record is pretty darn good.
Prediction: Washington 40, Penn State 31
