Who will be playing at Rose Bowl Stadium - Pasadena?

Ohio State and Washington Could Be Tightest Matchup of Any Major Bowl

This year's Rose Bowl matchup features a Washington Huskies team that began the season with high hopes after a playoff berth just two years ago and just as much talent on this roster, only to be upset twice in conference play after a tough loss to begin the season vs. Auburn. Ohio State suffered their lone defeat in an ugly performance at Purdue that was the only blemish on an otherwise fantastic season and the only reason why OSU isn't playing in the playoffs. This has been confirmed as Buckeyes head coach Urban Meyer's final game as head coach, as he's set to retire after the season amid a scandal that the team endured all year. This will be a tight matchup between Washington's stout defense and Ohio State's high-powered offense, so any fans lucky enough to attend should be in line to catch a great game.
