Penn State Football’s, Arkansas’ biggest keys to winning the Outback Bowl

‘We Win If, They Win If’ is back to breakdown Penn State Football’s Outback Bowl match-up vs the No. 21 Arkansas Razorbacks.

It’s been quite a few weeks since Penn State Football lost in a snowglobe in East Lansing, but the Nittany Lions have a chance to gain some momentum into the off-season, following a disappointing season but top ranked recruiting class.

It’s always fun when the Big Ten Conference and the Southeastern Conference aka the SEC aka ‘#itjustmeansmore’ get to play in a bowl game for a chance at conference bragging rights.

There is one simple key for both Penn State Football and Arkansasto win Saturday’s 12:00 pm game on ESPN2, and we will look at those keys in this week’s “We Win If, They Win If” column.

Here’s a look back at the Nittany Lions’ season finale, along with Penn State Football wins if this happens, Arkansas wins if that does …

Recapping Penn State Football’s loss vs Michigan State and our prediction.

Michigan State wins if they have less than three possessions with three or less plays (either a 3 and out or a turnover in the first three plays of a drive). 

The Spartans had four.

We said Penn State Football wins if they get four-plus impact plays from Dotson and Brisker.

Dotson himself eclipsed that total.  And yet the Lions still lost.  Sigh.

Victory Bell Rings missed pretty badly on this one.  In our defense, there is no defense.  We fall to 9-3 on the year (but still outperforming our Nits)!
