Music City Bowl: Iowa vs Kentucky game thread

[Nittany1865Farmer]

In the first game of the day, attendance is comparable to a home Pitt game, complete with a free drink at half-time.

 

[BobPSU92]

Iowa’s potent offense and Levis? Be right back.

 

[Nittany1865Farmer]

Fr QB Destin Wade is starting for Kentucky. First pass gains five yards.

 

[Nittany1865Farmer]

Iowa goes on a fourth and 2 and almost gets nailed for a pick 6. Turnover on downs back to Kentucky

 

[ApexLion]

Who was the QB from Kentucky that we played in a bowl game who went very high in the draft but was never heard from again? I keep thinking of that guy when people mention Levis.

 

[BobPSU92]

No Levis?

Why is Levis not playing? Saving himself for the NFL draft? Or is he injured?

 

[Nittany1865Farmer]

Why is Levis not playing? Saving himself for the NFL draft? Or is he injured?

Levis announced this past Wednesday that he is sitting out the Bowl game so he can heal completely from season-long injuries before the NFL draft.

 

[Big_O]

Levis announced this past Wednesday that he is sitting out the Bowl game so he can heal completely from season-long injuries before the NFL draft.

So the answer is “Yes.”

Translation: Four picks and a plethora of overthrows would not look good for the draft.

Tim Couch?

3-2 is possible today.
---
Not now. Iowa with a TD.

 

[Pocono Lion]

Iowa with a pick 6, up 14-0

 

[Alphalion75]

Even without Levis, love watching an SEC team get beat.

 

[Nittany1865Farmer]

Iowa pick 6 for a TD and now 21 - 0 before the half. Kentucky looks like a freshman team now...

 

[Nittany1865Farmer]

Interesting stat of the day: With Levis at the helm this season, Kentucky has thrown 17 INTs

Yeah, and with this knowledge I cannot understand why Levis is getting first-round love.

 

[Bosco2]

Tim Couch?

Yep

 

[Nittany1865Farmer]

Yeah, and with this knowledge I cannot understand why Levis is getting first-round love.

considering Sean Clifford has thrown only 7 this year and 31 in a five year career, but no one is mentioning him as a first-round choice.

 

[Alphalion75]

I think it is apparent that all the talk about SEC top to bottom strength is just that......talk.

 

[VaDave4PSU]

Yeah, and with this knowledge I cannot understand why Levis is getting first-round love.

Same reason Hack got drafted in R2:

He's got the certain measurables that coaches can't teach.

Levis has 10 this season, but he missed 2 games.

Coaches can’t teach 10 picks.

 

[VaDave4PSU]

Coaches can’t teach 10 picks.

They'll spend 1st rd picks on them tho!

TransPerfect Music City Bowl

 

[OhioLion]

Would it be politically incorrect to say this is the Who Gives a **** Bowl?
200 yards total offense combined for first half?
Geez-Lou-Weez.


OL

 

[Moogy]

So the answer is “Yes.”

Yeah, he's been playing hurt all year. Lots of boo boos. Kid's a trooper.

 

[Moogy]

Interesting stat of the day: With Levis at the helm this season, Kentucky has thrown 17 INTs

I'm seeing 10 by Levis, and 1 by Sheron, for a total of 11 (before today).

 

[LionJim]

I'm seeing 10 by Levis, and 1 by Sheron, for a total of 11 (before today).

Confirmed.

 

[Nittany1865Farmer]

Confirmed.

I didn't notice that Levis was out for 2 of the games this season.

 

[Nittany1865Farmer]

This second-half should have been sponsored by Serta mattress and Unisom, because it sure has cured my insomnia.....

 

[Catch1lion]

Iowa with some bush league play calls to finish the game when they could have taken a knee up 21-0.

 

[Ludd]

I didn't notice that Levis was out for 2 of the games this season.

He only missed one this year (unless you’re counting the bowl game).

 

[dcf4psu]

Nice turnaround for Iowa this year after they were the joke of college football with their inept offense to start the year.

 

[StamfordBridgeVikingatLeftOffensiveTackle]

Interesting stat of the day: With Levis at the helm this season, Kentucky has thrown 17 INTs

Levis had 17 TDs and 10 INTs this year.
Last year he had 24 TDs and 13 INTs.

 

[LionsAndBears]

Okay, who had Iowa by 21? Who had Iowa even scoring 21?

Iowa Defense 14
Iowa Offense 7
UK 0

 

[Midnighter]

Tim Couch?

He was the #1 recruit in the country when he was in H S though….
