ALTOONA, Pa. -- It'll be We Are vs. Woo Pig Sooie. Finally. The bowl matchup yours truly has been looking forward to since I started covering Penn State in 2006.
Penn State will play Arkansas in the Outback Bowl on Jan. 1 in Tampa, a fantastic destination for the Nittany Lions, who went just 7-5 bit still managed to land in an excellent bowl game. Arkansas is 8-4 (4-4 SEC) and ranked 21st.
This is a good football matchup -- which I'll break down a bunch in the coming weeks -- and for me personally, a pretty cool deal.
