0:00.0	You are Locked on Balls, your daily podcast on the Tennessee Volunteers.
0:06.5	Part of the Locked On Podcast Network, your team every day.
0:18.3	And good Tuesday morning, everybody.
0:20.1	Welcome into Locked On Balls. It is your team every single day.
0:23.7	I'm in here at Camping World Stadium post-game. I forgot the court from my microphone, so I do
0:29.6	apologize, about to hit the road. So this is kind of what you get here on a Wednesday morning,
0:34.3	or Tuesday morning, I guess, but don't worry, we'll be back on Wednesday, and we'll talk more about this football game.
0:39.8	But I wanted to get something out there.
0:41.3	I'm on the road, so this is going to be a little bit of a shorter podcast, about 20 minutes or so.

1:18.6	defense was not great, or Iowa's offense was not great. We knew that. In fact, it was really,
1:23.4	really bad. What did Tennessee do? It got out for the quarterback. It brought the quarterback down.
1:27.6	It forced so many different punts. And it got out for the quarterback forcing turnovers, setting up short
1:34.6	fields. And of course, as I mentioned, cashing out on a pick six. And both of those plays were
1:39.4	courtesy of James Pierce. And what a performance for James Pierce. He was my vote for Citrus Bowl MVP. And again, it didn't matter. I mean, they handed out the ballots at the beginning of the fourth quarter and media members voted and then sent them all in. And, you know, Nico goes out there and throws his first touchdown pass, but his fourth touchdown overall in the football game moments after that.
2:04.6	But Nico was incredible, and I'll get to him more here in just a moment. But he was really,
