Iowa to play No. 19 Missouri in Music City Bowl
The Iowa Hawkeyes will play Missouri in the Music City Bowl in Nashville on December 30th. The Hawkeyes are 8-4 and beat Kentucky in the 2022 Music City Bowl. That is Hawkeye coach Kirk Ferentz. Iowa star running back Kaleb Johnson is entering the NFL Draft and will not play in the bowl game. Ferentz says as of right now there are no other players opting out. For Fertentz this will be his first meeting with Missouri coach Eliah Drinkwitz. The teams were slated to meet in the 2020 Music City Bowl but the game was canceled after a Covid outbreak in the Tiger program. Ferentz says Drinkwitz is building a consistent winner at Mizzou. The Tigers beat Ohio State in last season's Cotton Bowl and they are 19th in the final college football playoff rankings.
