Value nearly a dozen points! Projected box-score shows Penn State passing edge of 96.28 yards in excess of Washington passing total. Key factors noted: The Nittany Lions have the stronger offense particularly in the passing game where they average 64 more yards per game than the Huskies. This is an even more impressive factor considering that Penn State has also played a tougher schedule than Washington this season.

The Nittany Lions enter this bowl game off of 3 straight wins and they are 16-4 SU and ATS when entering a game on a winning streak of 2 or more consecutive victories. PSU is hungry to make up for last year's brutally tight loss to USC in the Rose Bowl last year where Penn State blew a big lead over the Trojans and lost late.

Projected box-score shows Nittany Lions rushing edge of 32.52 yards in excess of Huskies rushing total. Combined edge of 128.80 total yards equating to a win by 13.10 points per MIT Simulator.
