TaxSlayer Bowl Predictions

[NCHawker]

I look forward to this game much the same way I used to look forward to going to the doctor as a kid to get shots. Or looking forward to a root canal. Or tax day.

The idea that it will be tons of fun has not really crossed my mind.

Going back to the last 2 games, I felt the same way, but those games delivered some excitement even though the outcomes stunk.

Iowa, will lead 24-17 at halftime, break the game open with 31 unanswered points in the third quarter. KVM and Tavaun Smith will total 115 and 104 receiving yards, respectively.

Wait...there's a game? I thought their is only future episodes of the soap opera "How Kinnick Turns"?

Honestly, hard to predict the game. Hopefully we can play a complete game.

It's all very interesting.

We have not played a complete game all year. Purdue would be about as close to a complete game, maybe jNW.

 

[MrEHawk]

I don't care.

Nothing feels right at all about this game. Always hoping for a win but as in Platoon..... 'I got a bad feeling about this one'.

Whatever the score is we will play slow uninspired football, if we win, it should be a blowout, but we will make it painfully close

 

[NCHawker]

I'd hate to see a great effort but stupid coaching with no urgency.

 

[ibahawkeye]

27-20 Hawks!!

And I predict JR out plays CJB.

Correct. This is why I am hoping to see something close to a complete game.

 

[HawkeyeWalker]

I don't care.

Come on now...admit it...you care, at least a little.

Whoa, that's crazy talk.

 

[PCHawk]

I could care less....a lot less, cause I'm pumped as ****!

 

[DDThompson]

Well if it's true that underclassmen make big improvements between end of season and bowl, the Iowa's experience may not be the advantage the experts are making it out to be.

Plus the QB debacle.

 

[NCHawker]

Well it will be easier to go North/South in this stadium

Sidelines run SW to NE compared to Kinnick's South-North orientation. So when the hawks run horiz. pass to the left they'll be going north.

Sadly....23-20 Tennessee....playing a more motivated opponent and we don't have our ship together.

 

[TheLorax]

Hawks by a safety

Right on as usual!
