[Mose Phillip's Watch]

Who will start in the secondary for the bowl game & how much experience do they have?

CB-Juedy-Lally =tons
CB-Gibson = True Freshman
Star-Thomas=Soph played sparingly
FS-McCollough=Tons
SS-Turrentine= Soph played sparingly/Will Brooks=Walk on

Honestly expect something similar to this especially If the refs do refs things and neutralize our pass rush...

where conyer is he leaving

 

[SpookyAction]

Big opportunities are presenting themselves for our kids down the depth chart.

 

[NighthawkVol]

where conyer is he leaving

No, he’s just not starting, in all likelihood. Same for Matthews.

 

[Shirleyudontmeanthat]

Jordan Matthew stud Fr will play … just green.

Also we are playing Iowa so

 

[titansvolsfaninga]

& how much experience do they have?

Anyone know?

I don't think Iowa can throw at all.

Does it matter? We couldn’t be worse!

I don't think Iowa can throw at all.

Against Michigan they did throw a little bit, especially to TEs/H-backs, out wide and quickly, or dumped short in the middle.

But, it got disrupted when the pressure was hot enough.

Will Brooks has started the last two games…

 

[OH-Vol]

Is Walker gone?

 

[HuntlandVolinColo]

I'm confident Gibson will do fine. Jeudy will be good too.

If we stop their TEs from getting passes, we have eliminated 60% of their passing game of about 120 yards a game.

 

[BACKDOC]

Is Walker gone?

He is injured. He can't transfer again until he graduates. His graduation date is May.

 

[Tennman]

I don't think Iowa can throw at all.

LOL, they will on 1 Jan. LOL We for some reason make opponent QB's look like Heisman candidates. Not trashing, just saying. I'm betting the young men get er done, and our DL crushes their QB.

I wonder if we'll use an actual Sam Linebacker instead of a Star to match Iowa's Personnel Grouping?

 

[HuntlandVolinColo]

I would just line up 5 DL every play, forcing their TEs to block. TEs account for most of the 120 passing yards per game. And it would help plug the holes for their run game forcing slow team to rush to the outside.

 

[jonnon111]

I think it's against the rules for Iowa to throw a forward pass.

 

[Oldvoldad]

Will Brooks has started the last two games…

I know. Guess I’m just hopeful we have guys on scholly that can actually beat out a walk on….

 

[BruisedOrange]

I don't think Iowa can throw at all.

...which means our DBs will have to wrap up and tackle.

 

[walkenvol]

I know. Guess I’m just hopeful we have guys on scholly that can actually beat out a walk on….

Or maybe the walk on deserves to be on scholarship?

 

[Stacmot]

Against Michigan they did throw a little bit, especially to TEs/H-backs, out wide and quickly, or dumped short in the middle.

But, it got disrupted when the pressure was hot enough.

This just gave me a flashback of Herring against Mizzou. Herring looked totally lost trying to cover their RB, also looked extremely slow. Got severely exposed. We should expect to see the same against Iowa.

 

[I4Vols]

I think it's against the rules for Iowa to throw a forward pass.

And when we play them, you expect the refs to flag them???

 

[DaddyChad]

Does it matter? We couldn’t be worse!

Sal Sunseri defense says “yes we can”!

 

[VolForLife83]

I'm confident Gibson will do fine. Jeudy will be good too.

If we stop their TEs from getting passes, we have eliminated 60% of their passing game of about 120 yards a game.

Our pass defense is a major weakness. Even more now, I'd imagine they will break character and attack it.
