#Badgers Wohler on '24 goals: "The same as this year. It’s not going to change. It’s winning a championship and go as far as we can... Because we have a lot of really good players. And we have a coaching staff that loves and cares about us and knows how to attack a game."
Iowa UNDERs were 💰 this season, finishing 12-2. Iowa-Tennessee stays UNDER 37. Final score: Tennessee 35, Iowa 0 ✅

FINAL: Tennessee 35, Iowa 0. Why didn't coaches give their freshman QB #1 reps in bowl prep like the Vols did? A thorough thumping and worst bowl loss in Hawkeye history. Early thoughts from Orlando. https://t.co/Lpn9LzYfsP

Final Iowa under of the season hits in legendary fashion. Total was 37. Tennessee scores 35, ends game at Iowa 1 yard line. Iowa scores 0. Iowa finishes the season and FBS best 12 unders hit in 14 games. Since 2021, Iowa has hit 29 unders in 41 games (71.8%).
Power 5 teams shut out 3+ times in one season since 2000: 2023 Iowa (10-4) 2019 Rutgers (2-10) 2016 Rutgers (2-10) 2008 Wazzu (2-11) 2006 Duke (0-12) 2002 Baylor (3-9) 2001 Rutgers (2-9) 2000 Baylor (2-9) (Iowa hadn't been shut out since 2000)
Final Tennessee 35 Iowa 0 #Hawkeyes
Iowa turns it over on downs again. This time at its own 34-yard line. #Vols 35, Iowa 0, 3:17/4thQ.
Didn't have the Vols running for 215 today on that Iowa defense. That's 100 more than the Hawkeyes, 14th in the nation, give up on average.
Touchdown Tennessee. Nico Iamaleava 18-yard pass to tight end McCallan Castles, if it stands.
Got it done 😤 🏆 @ReliaQuestBowl Champions @LSUfootball x #ItJustMeansMore https://t.co/sqVa1VoKJK
Iowa has been outscored 85-0 in 3 games vs ranked teams. Only teams since 2000 to allow more points vs ranked teams w/out scoring: 2001 Rutgers 111-0 (2 games) 2005 Ball State 94-0 (2 games) 2005 Baylor 90-0 (2 games)
Losing my Iowa-Tennessee Under bet because the Iowa QB handed Tennessee 14 points in the last two minutes. That hurts
END OF THIRD QUARTER IN ORLANDO: No. 21 Tennessee 21, No. 17 Iowa 0. Hawkeyes have it fourth-and-inches near midfield to open the fourth quarter.
Ruling stands. Touchdown. That call was gonna stand either way. Fortunately for Tennessee, it was called a TD on the field. #Vols 21, Iowa 0, 1:43/3rdQ.
Iowa goes three-and-out. Iowa will punt the ball to Tennessee. https://t.co/AkqC7uEJhg
Starting to believe that Iowa is refusing to score in the Citrus Bowl as a bit
#Vols miss a great chance for a kill shot to open the second half. Ball punted inside the Iowa 6-yard line, though.
#Vols quickly across midfield to open the third quarter.
As of halftime of Citrus Bowl, #Hawkeyes have 3 points over last 8 quarters. On 23 possessions over that span, 17 punts, 5 turnovers, 1 FG and 293 total yards.
HALFTIME IN ORLANDO: No. 21 Tennessee 14, No. 17 Iowa 0. So far, so good for the #Vols in Game One of the Nico Iamaleava era. Tennessee will get the ball to start the second half. https://t.co/QYhmfSdX64
Iowa has 1,212 more yards punting than gained on offense this season with one half to go. No other FBS team has more punt yards than yards on offense
Nothing doing again for Iowa's offense, and it punts the ball to Tennessee ... but it did flip the field and force the #Vols inside their own 15.
Iowa gets one first down, but no more. Hawkeyes will punt it away again.
A mobile quarterback ... Iowa's future OC should be taking notes. Tennessee 14, Iowa 0, 8:12 2nd.
Ruling overturned. It'll be third-and-1 for Tennessee at the Iowa 7.
A delay of game and sack on the first two plays, and Iowa goes three-and-out. #Vols getting the ball right back.
Tennessee and Iowa watching each other play offense https://t.co/r6w6eQkRcj
Touchdown Vols on the first play of the second quarter. Iamaleava QB draw right up the middle.
End 1st: Iowa 0, Tennessee 0.
Liberty punts on 4th & 2 at own 45, giving Dan Lanning a preview of Iowa
Liberty faces a 4th and 2 at their own 45, but they elect to punt.
Liberty's first quarter punt was just its second punt in the last four games, including today. Iowa has punted 23 times in its last four games.
Iowa ranks #131 in the country (out of 133) in red zone touchdown percentage I believe it after interception by Tennessee’s defense
Leave it to Tim Banks and the Vols to let this Iowa offense move the ball.
Iowa's offense is what it is, but every time you run the ball at this Tennessee defense, you're doing the Vols a favor.
Tennessee wins the toss, defers. Iowa ball to start.
Prediction: Tennessee 21, Iowa 20

#Titans punting after Derrick Henry in the Wildcat was stopped behind the line of scrimmage
#Titans go 3 and out, punting. Big missed opportunity right out of the gate
