Rose Bowl: #7 Ohio State vs. #11 Utah Preview, Prediction

Utah takes on Ohio State in the Rose Bowl. It's the first time Utah has played in a college football bowl. The game is a battle of the best teams from the Big Ten Conference. Ohio is without two All-Americans, while Utah is missing two. Utah's offense is based on ground and pound, whereas Ohio's is more about passing and running. The winner will play in this year's College Football Playoff. For the other team, the winner goes to the next year’s game.

Utah beat Oregon twice this year and beat Ohio State in Week 2. Ohio has over a month to prepare for Utah under Ryan Day. The Buckeyes should attack the air early and try to scheme the run game away.

Rose Bowl is between #7 Ohio State and #11 Utah.
