Boston College should be the Boston Crabs. Incidentally, isn't kind of weird how close the Boston Crab is to an inverted Cleveland Steamer? We could call it the Boston Steamer.
On that note, Iowa plays Boston College in the ACC Challenge tonight, right now. The game is on ESPNU, which means it's probably in the triple digits on your cable box, which means A) the quality will be poor and B) I don't get it on this TV. So I'll be using the channel with four digits, as I listen along with Gary Dolphin and Mac MacCausland, a proposition that's guaranteed to lower my IQ substantially.
Leave comments and thoughts here as we "kick Boston College's ass." And by that I mean lose by like a dozen.

I know this will come as a shock
But it’s 6-0 Boston College, as Iowa can’t hit a shot to save their lives.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
Timeout again
8-2 BC after Iowa can’t keep BC off the glass.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
12-3 edge in rebounds
and no, not for Iowa.
Oh, and Kelly just jammed one home. Why doesn’t he start?

Best I could do is GameCast off of espn.com.
Which isn’t great but better than nothing.
"Sweet lady fate, why dost thou piss on me so?"
Iowa is on a 4-2 run
At this rate, Iowa will tie this game up by halftime. Take that BC!!!

I think Dolph is watching the Royals now.

This game is fucking boring.
I mean, leading 10-9 is cool, but each team is scoring at under a 1 PPM pace. Kill me.

Kelly with Iowa's third 3 of the first half
A 4-point lead in this game is like a 70-point lead in normal games.

15-13 after two FTs for BC.

Iowa has a 4-point lead and the ball...
…and Tate celebrates with a moving screen.

Boston College has a guy named Reggie Jackson
And he keeps muttering “must kill the Queen.” What gives?

Iowa re-establishes 4-point lead
…while BC is shooting about 25%. That probably won’t continue all game long.

2:59 to go
BC ties it at 19. Iowa racking up fouls and TOs.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
Kelly draws the center on a defensive switch...
…and turns the ball over. BC now leads 23-22 with the ball and about a minute left.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
HALFTIME
And it’s 27-24 BC.
I think highlights are going to be on ESPN in a little bit when this OSU-Miami game hits halftime.
Good jesus this game is painful.

I was at work
Believe me, I already had a reason to kill myself

Just something worth pointing out here
Iowa: 19 FGA
BC: 31 FGA

Oh, also
Iowa: 0 2nd Chance pts
BC: 8 2nd Chance pts

We used to be able to rebound
I miss those days

How many tmes did we turn it over?
Subquestion: Is the fact that our turnover numbers have spiked after Tony Freeman left the most ironic thing ever?
Oops Pow Surprise: "I'm stuck writing at the Titty Barn."
Turnovers were under control until late
I think we stayed under 10.
And yes, I recognize the horror of that being a “positive.”

"The top of the key was basically a three"
No, it WAS a three. There’s no “basically” about it.
Oops Pow Surprise: "I'm stuck writing at the Titty Barn."
Show of hands
How many people thing Plaxico was hopped on on 5-Hour Energy when he shot himself?
Oops Pow Surprise: "I'm stuck writing at the Titty Barn."
5 hour energy
is street talk for “fucking stupid juice”, right?

Steal and a layup for BC
Dolphin’s getting monotoned. That’s never a good sign.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
We tried three different methods of turning it over
and were ultimately successful. Layup for BC to start the half.
If at first you don’t succeed…
Oops Pow Surprise: "I'm stuck writing at the Titty Barn."
Good call
It’s only about 5-10 seconds behind, which is really not bad for the internet.

"Hawkeye All-Access"
Does anyone try to listen to these games with this lame cstv client? Mine scrolls for 5 minutes or so, then I have to reset the whole thing. It won’t play continuously.
Mr. Boh Knows ...
Keenan Davis is playing in one... the Under Armour one, I think.
Don’t think the others are. Wegher deserves to get invited to one.
This is off-topic, but it needs to be discussed
Sean Avery gets suspended by the NHL for using the term “sloppy seconds” to the press?! Total bullshit.

The phrase wasn't the problem
It was a lack of a Canadian accent when it was said
Oops Pow Surprise: "I'm stuck writing at the Titty Barn."
Cole
I know he’s played limited minutes this season, but does anyone know if it’s a slow return from the ACL or a function of being buried on the bench? It seems odd that Lick would make Cole a captain and then have him sit next to Angle all year.
Oops Pow Surprise: "I'm stuck writing at the Titty Barn."
Iowa gives it away again
Lickliter rips off Devan Bawinkle’s arm and beats Angle to death with it.

Still 38-32
God damn I hate this game. Do something interesting.

I know BC is Jesuit
but does that require that they play games in a cathedral? Jesus, the geriatric Carver-Hawkeye crowd is louder than this.

I'm pretty sure this breaks the SBN "No Porn" rule
Oops Pow Surprise: "I'm stuck writing at the Titty Barn."
Three point play off a retarded turnover by Kelly.
43-35 BC… and Tucker celebrates getting inserted into the game by going over and back.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
Tucker was just in the game for 12 seconds
Ill go ahead and say it: WTF?

How long
til Lickliter kills himself for agreeing to coach this team?

Tate makes 2 FTs for first time in his life
45-39 now, under 9 minutes to play.

I don't think ..
I have ever seen a major college team with 11 guards and two third string forwards.
Mr. Boh Knows ...
Seriously, what's with that?
It doesn’t seem to be working out. Play Cole and Palmer!

Bawinkel has a sweet shot
Too bad he doesn’t play any defense
Oops Pow Surprise: "I'm stuck writing at the Titty Barn."
Has noone made a Reggie Jackson joke yet?
You should all be ashamed of yourselves.

Ah, "must kill the queen"
My apologies. That’s good.

Bawinkel for another 3!
50-45 now, about 6 to play.

Wow
Dana Barros reference. Rick Pitino just cringed.
Oops Pow Surprise: "I'm stuck writing at the Titty Barn."
Is it Bah-winkel or Bowel-winkel?
I swear I heard the announcer call it the latter.
"Sweet lady fate, why dost thou piss on me so?"
It the first
but you might want to check Urban Dictionary for the second

And another killer turnover.
Peterson gets stripped by a 6’8" guy, then doesn’t go after the ball. Now 2 more FTs give BC the 11-point lead.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
For anyone actually watching this game?
Why the fuck has BC shot 20 free throws to Iowa’s 4? A disparity that lodge might even have gotten the last coach to come off the bench.
It appears
to have something to do with the location. Refs trying to see if this can be the quietest crowd in the history of crowds
Gatens knocks down the triple from the corner
Lead down to 6
Oops Pow Surprise: "I'm stuck writing at the Titty Barn."
how much time left?
Gametracker has it at 4:04
BEOWEOWEOWEOINKEL with another 3!
56-53, Iowa coming back.

Elsewhere Update:
OSU has taken a 5-point lead after trailing by as many as 14. They did it on a 360-degree dunk, which is excessive.

And Gatens gets fouled almost immediately
Hits em both, 56-55 with 2 to play.

Brommer to shoot
He is a 21% free throw shooter. Fuck me.
Oops Pow Surprise: "I'm stuck writing at the Titty Barn."
WTF? Does he have no hands or something? How does someone shoot only 21% from the line?

Hey, there were down by like 11, weren't they?
if they were able to throw something other than a brick from downtown, Iowa wins.
Illinois is blowing it, too
God damn this stupid fucking thing
Oops Pow Surprise: "I'm stuck writing at the Titty Barn."
We played a competitive game against a real basketball team!
That’s progress, right? I was thinking we’d lose by about 20.
Didn’t get to see it, unfortunately, because I am not one of the lucky 12 people on the planet who gets ESPNU. I would have listened to Dolph, but my clock radio crapped out on my like a week ago and I keep forgetting to get a new one.
Purdue hosts Duke
I advise rooting for Matt Painter to erase these guys with a 14-gauge.

I know it is late
but I have to type a “scouting report” about Iowa due tomorrow. Offense/defense individual strengths/weaknesses. It’s actually my sister’s assignment, but the idiot left me … I haven’t watched basketball at all this year and any help would be appreciated.
