Opt outs on both sides have made this matchup a bit less intriguing, but we should still be in for an interesting game. Penn State had six starters – five on defense – declare they would not play in the Outback Bowl, and Arkansas star receiver Treylon Burks opted out to prepare for the upcoming NFL Draft.
The Razorbacks enter the day 8-4 overall, and the Nittany Lions are 7-5, losers of five of their last seven games. Kickoff is set for 11 a.m. on ESPN2.
