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

[Jaxon_Vol2017]

Anyone still questioning if Nico can play at a high level. ?

Not sure I've seen too many people worried. He was a 5 star for a reason, and it shows.

 

[WiseOlVol]

Vols already have half as many yards as Michigan got all game v Iowa.

 

[Vol8188]

It is when a guy stares down receivers every single play. Which he did. All. Year.

So did hooker. That’s how this offense works. This isn’t a west coast offense.

The bright side is this is a pretty good defense. I Dont buy best in the nation good but yeah they are solid and well coached. Nico looks in command

 

[Godfatha]

Where is squirrel white today?

 

[fossilfiction]

Probably trying to protect him from taking a big hit.

He could try blocking the guy on the line of scrimmage instead of tackling his QB. It's just crazy enough to work.

 

[tnvols72]

Our tackle makes the tackle on our QB.

The sad part is Davis comes off the line and did not even attempt to block his man but had time to come back and get his half of a sack

 

[firestorm]

The fast pace offense looks great.

 

[DEFENDTHISHOUSE]

I’m so used to seeing the first down line.

 

[Jaxon_Vol2017]

WRs are still dropping passes.

It’s not all been on Milton.

And o line has been fairly trashy all year too. Joe got too much blame.

 

[ttocswob]

TD NICOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

 

[VolJarhead]

We got a good crowd there.

Upper section empty

 

[JO VOL]

Am I the only one tired of seeing a 5th yr senior get beat like a step child every game he’s in ?

 

[DooleyOrangePants]

Nico!!!!!!!!!

What a future we have with this guy!

 

[Vol1976]

TD!

 

[mpfvol]

Nico TD baby

 

[TomcatVolFan]

Touchdown Nico!!! Love it !!!!! Let's goooooooooooooooooo!1

 

[Delmar]

looks like nico will be able to run our fast pace offense

That was the issue with Joe. Lots of arm talent but couldn’t make quick enough decisions to run Heupel’s offense. Nico appears to have that ability.

 

[nomads-11]

Okay, don't throw it then - run it yourself!

 

[MeanOrange]

Way to go Nico! TD vols.

 

[BigALWiLson]

WRs need to spend 8hrs a day on the Higgs machines until September

Wrong they need to spend all that time with QB1. Screw a machine

 

[firestorm]

Great play to score a TD

 

[rocketskates]

we need Bro back bad and hopefully Thornton pans out

Wait until Matthews comes next year.

 

[Proud Army Wife]

Hell yeah Nico! That boy good
