Title: Re: Game Thread: Iowa 2024 (Citrus Bowl) Post by: murfvol on January 01, 2024, 06:54:43 EST Per Iowa's color guy, Raymor Kayton is a UT WR, Tyler Baron is a rush guy to watch.
I need to complain less about our broadcast. Title: Re: Game Thread: Iowa 2024 (Citrus Bowl) Post by: murfvol on January 01, 2024, 07:01:31 EST Listening to an Iowa City station that apparently programs classic rock. "Dirty Deeds" is cranking at equal volume with the broadcast. It is absolutely amazing. No, it is not intentional.

Title: Re: Game Thread: Iowa 2024 (Citrus Bowl) Post by: PirateVOL on January 01, 2024, 07:32:00 EST That was well played and a nice pick
GD-L had a nice PBU earlier in that drive Of our DYs can hold the interior then our edge guys can wreck havoc Title: Re: Game Thread: Iowa 2024 (Citrus Bowl) Post by: VinnieVOL on January 01, 2024, 07:32:37 EST That would have been a massive gain for Sampson.

Title: Re: Game Thread: Iowa 2024 (Citrus Bowl) Post by: Black Diamond Vol on January 01, 2024, 08:04:42 EST Still early, but I've already seen enough of Nico/Sampson/Seldon to be pretty damn excited for next year. Imagine what they can do with a healthy OL and WRs. :thumbup:
Title: Re: Game Thread: Iowa 2024 (Citrus Bowl) Post by: Black Diamond Vol on January 01, 2024, 08:07:53 EST Speaking of WRs, I've yet to hear Squirrel White's name called. Is he even playing today? :confused:

If Nico learns to handle the blitz he'll be dangerous. It's impressive what he's done with so few snaps. Title: Re: Game Thread: Iowa 2024 (Citrus Bowl) Post by: volsboy on January 01, 2024, 08:34:52 EST Dang good half for the most part. We are lucky Iowa is passing challenged. Any other team would be able to challenge our young secondary.

If Nico learns to handle the blitz he'll be dangerous. It's impressive what he's done with so few snaps. He's getting little help from his OL or WRs. At least 4 of his 6 incompletions were drops. But he'll come back in August with another 15-20 lbs of muscle and a fully healthy supporting cast. I expect next year's offense to approach 2022 numbers. :powert: Title: Re: Game Thread: Iowa 2024 (Citrus Bowl) Post by: PirateVOL on January 01, 2024, 08:45:03 EST It?s the Tennee Circle Drill!!!!

They know they won't challenge them. Any other offense, they couldn't play them that tight. But they are doing what they have to do. They have covered really well.They had one good dog route but that is all Title: Re: Game Thread: Iowa 2024 (Citrus Bowl) Post by: PirateVOL on January 01, 2024, 09:15:36 EST Tyre West!

Hope he will be durable if they are going to let him run often. Nice that he will be able to avoid the rush...with more experience. He is going to be an elite one. Do any of you still scratch you head about not playing him this season? Hindsight seems to be it was a good move. Probably wouldn't have changed Vols record much

Of course our defense has spent the past month and 3 quarters gearing up to stop a Feddie Kitchens clone (only less accurate).
