Leave it to the Big Ten to schedule conference openers - including today's Iowa-Ohio State tilt (3:00, BTN) - for a Wednesday afternoon. I'm still at the office, and will be for at least the first half. Anyone escape to provide some updates?

Hey look! It's an Iowa game!
Since it’s on the BTN, I will be able to watch it… that is if I can tear myself away from the Dog marathon on A&E…
Im sure I'd have some
insightful comments to make, but I literally don’t know who half these guys are.
Just say things like “NICE CALL, HIGHTOWER! YOU ASSHOLE!” and “JESUS, THAT tOSU GUARD IS A MONSTER!” and “STOP DRIBBLING, IOWA!”
Those always apply.

You've embarrassed us both
Because you listened to the announcer, who was incorrect. I backed it up on DVR and it was Kelly.
-2 to you

Tate comes back in for 12 seconds
and picks up his 3rd personal… and I believe a technical for good measure!
Bucks miss 2 FTs
and Iowa hits another 3 – making it 12-17
As shitty as Iowa has played, we’re in this game.
This is fucking unwatchable
Lickliter didn’t do Tate any favors by putting him back in the game with 2 fouls.
That block wasn't clean, he hit his hand
10 turnovers now
Yes
and you know, a free throw attempt? That would be nice.

Is Lickliter really bitching about the foul disparity?
Have your team attempt a shot in the paint and you might draw a foul.
Lickliter uses cream cheese as styling mousse
Tiller can smell cream cheese from two states away

Iowa has zero business being in this game
This bodes well.

Updates
Thank for the updates. I’m at work too and don’t have TV/Radio.
Being at work sucks almost as bad as trying to keep track of the game on ESPN Gamecast.

"He brought in Todd Branch, the wrestling coach, to talk to the players"
BTN announcers somehow, inexplicably, keeps getting worse

Peterson bricks an open three, questionable call gives OSU the ball

And now following an OSU charge...
Iowa turns it over, apparently on general principle.

In other words, your typical Iowa half under Steve Alford

OSU drills a 3 at the buzzer.
36-28. Damn it all.

Not this kind, hopefully...
Cosby Sweater
The sexual act of eating Fruit Loops, Fruity Pebbles, Trix, and Boo Berry- or any other ‘bright, colorful’ breakfast cereals- and then vomitting the tacky, dazzling mixture onto your partners chest. The result should look similar to the incredible sweaters that Bill Cosby wore during his highly successful 1980’s sitcom “The Cosby Show”.

Braylon Edwards is the 5-hour designated driver.
… this just in, a confused Bengals front office trades 3 first round picks to Cleveland for Braylon Edwards, citing his ability to drive without intoxication.
Why does Hooper Corporation get to use video of Vince Lombardi?
1) it made no sense; 2) that can’t be legal.

Two quick buckets for Iowa
Now 36-32. Again, no business being in this.

Is Dallas Lauderdale on the football team?
Because he should be.

Gatens for 3!
Iowa’s back within 3, and I am giggling uncontrollably like I am robbing a bank and nobody is stopping me.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
TIE GAME!
Gatens for another 3! Thad Matta is now brandishing a firearm and raving like a drunk.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
They look like an entirely different team. LIke the real team was in the locker room for the 1st 1/2
Incredible
Jermain Davis’s obvious flop doesn’t get called. I thought that was an automatic charge call in the BXI.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
Now they call BLOCKING on a flop?!
Am I taking crazy pills??
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
Just like that, OSU back up by 7
Deedler or whatever with a 3.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
Iowa is undeterred
Cole, Gatens with 2s, then an obvious offensive foul called on OSU. Back within a field goal.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
IOWA FOR THE LEAD!
Bawinkel was wide, wide open. Yes, of course, a 3.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
Beebler hits a 3 to cut the Iowa lead to 1
When it was 30-15 OSU, I was pretty sure the above headline wasn’t going to happen.

Am I the only one who wants a pickup full of beer?
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
Thats 2 timeout that Matta has burned
when the next dead ball would be a media timeout. Nice to see someone other than Lickliter doing that for a change.
Thad Matta is a saint! You take that back!

Things Iowa has in addition to the lead
No FT
No blocks
No 2nd chance points
No fast break points
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
WE'RE GONNA GET FREE THROWS!
Sure, it only took like 30 minutes of game time.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
How does Ohio State only have 5 team fouls?
seems like it should be more
Jay Fiedler hits a 3, ties it
Gatens forces a 3, misses.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
That's the 3rd time we've been watching a "highlight" and missed in game action.
Well played, BTN.
And Bullwinkle with another 3. Iowa up by 1 with 8 to go.
I! AM! BAWINKEL!

Iowa leads 55-54.

Deebler, is he the elf that makes cookies?
Or has that joke already been made?

COLE POUNDED FROM BEHIND!
Wayne Larrivee might want to just make a tape of what he says in a normal day and listen for mistakes
Oops Pow Surprise: "I'm stuck writing at the Titty Barn."
I like how Larrivee is trying really hard to be Gus Johnson

That is Peterson's SECOND FOUL!

TV magic
The announcer, who MIGHT NOT BE WAYNE LARRIVEE, said “moving screen” and the camera automatically cut to Dallas Lauderdale even though he’s sitting on the bench.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
holy shit, Hawks in the bonus
gotta make these.
Watch out for Buford
Hits a baseline jumper, OSU’s back up by 3.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
Beautiful cut down the lane by Gatens
Iowa back up by 1
Oops Pow Surprise: "I'm stuck writing at the Titty Barn."
Beebler gets another 3
That’s only his 7th of the da—HOLY SHIT THREE FOR IOWA WE LEAD AGAIN HOLY SHIT THIS IS UNLIKE ALL IOWA BASKETBALL EVER WHAT IS HAPPENING
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
Look into his eyes

Deebler makes another, Kelly answers immediately
This game is incredible. Iowa up 1, just under 4:00 to play
Oops Pow Surprise: "I'm stuck writing at the Titty Barn."
When was the last time Iowa had a game this entertaining?
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
Thread-drift...
but the Oregon St-Pitt game was the antithesis of entertaining.
3-0!
Stupid, stupid Wannstache.
Coul-ier?

Foul on Gatens, last media timeout
65-64 Iowa, 3:14 to play, and I think OSU’s going to the line.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
I'm a little late to the party...
But thanks for the update. Wish i could watch or listen, but this isn’t a bad alternative…
'They are who we thought they were!'
Is it just me, or do the commercials make 5-hour energy sound more than a little like liquid methamphetamine?

3 in the key violation wipes out a wide open 3.
OSU still up 1, under three minutes to play.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
Hightower, with the most flamboyant three-seconds call ever
Oops Pow Surprise: "I'm stuck writing at the Titty Barn."
Awful offensive foul call on Iowa
Jake Kelly couldn’t do that to someone without a baseball bat or the bumper of an F-150. At 35 mph.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
If that call was a member of the Roots
It would be ?uestionable.

Kelly biffs the front end, OSU misses their shot, timeout Iowa
1:01 to go, still a 2-point lead for the Buckeyes.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
Why do I have the feeling
that this will somehow come down to Andrew Brommer on the line with no time left again?
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
I thought he was summarily executed after that BC loss

Oops Pow Surprise: "I'm stuck writing at the Titty Barn."
Bad clock management there
waiting until there was less than 35 seconds to go was not a good idea.
It was an open shot.
But alas.
Now OSU’s at the line to protect their 2-point lead with about 25 ticks left.

3-6 today, much better usually.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
Make that 3-7

Gatens misses, ball stays out of control until game over.
fuck.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
I'm out, gents.
and for those of you going out tonight? Call a cab. We can’t lose any of you before the game tomorrow.
Peace.
