The Official #21 Tennessee vs. #17 Iowa Citrus Bowl Game Thread, 1:00 PM ET, ABC

Nico looks like Vince Young

 

[firestorm]

Ched Z the cheez it mascot

 

[Caz]

Why do that?

Makes absolutely no damn sense

 

[VFL28]

Can someone explain to me the point of those kicks? I don't get it. Am I stupid?

 

[wmcovol]

WTF is the KO guy doing?

 

[allstar34bd]

What was that about?

 

[Proud Army Wife]

DL is on fire

 

[GUNTERSVOL]

All I hear all year long is that Nico would be snapped in half if he played. Needed beef. LOL

Guy is running wild. Coach calling designed runs…on purpose.

nICo IsNt ReAdY.

He has added 15 lbs this year and been working out in the weight room. Still needs more but not at as much risk now.

 

[LadyVolette]

Omg look at the little cheezits man

 

[posivol]

firing up that d

 

[AustinMem]

Did our kicker opt out?

 

[MurphyVol]

This offense seems to be better under Nico, or this defense was severely overrated.

I choose to believe the former.

This O is better with a QB that will run.. been saying it all year.

 

[TheVolsFrog]

I think it is the camera

Yeah they need to open the aperture up...

 

[volbound1700]

Your hate for Milton isn’t letting you comprehend this conversation going forward.

Glad Nico is playing well but you’re literally ignoring the fact that the NFL isn’t going to care whether or not Milton played in the Bowl game.

He’s getting drafted whether you disagree with it or not.

I hope Milton does well to be honest. He is a VFL and I have 0 hate.

 

[Delmar]

Iowa defense appears to suck ass.

Either that or the Big 10 was much worse than anybody thought. They did hold Michigan to less than 300 yards in the championship game. Hmmmm.

 

[CAVPUT]

Why are we getting cute with these kickoff? Put it thru the endzone!!!

 

[ENGRVOL]

Why are they kicking this off like this ? gezzzzz

Really head scratcher. We are just giving up field position with their punter

 

[TN1111]

WTH??? Does Iowa have the Rocket for a punt returner?

 

[joevols89]

Did we lose our normal kick off guy?

 

[Vol_in_NC_1999]

What was the Vegas line? 5.5? How many here put $$ on TN? I didn't, but curious how many did.

 

[DEFENDTHISHOUSE]

Y’all don’t want none of Gibson.

 

[DeadByDaylightFan]

wtf is this kicking and punting game ahaha

 

[OrangeSquid]

Yup. Rush 5 or 6 and don't get to the QB in time, you're probably giving up a 20+ yard play.

That play is the difference...JM is mechanical. Nico is instinctual.

Hope coaches don't "coach" it out of him.

 

[allstar34bd]

Lol CJH trying to back us up further to pad stats. I did the same in NCAA 2014. I understand big homie

 

[Voltrapnbama]

What’s up with the KO?
