Pardon the delay
We’re just having to watch Northwestern dispatch the Spartans in East Lansing beforehand. This is totally normal.

NU just about to wrap it up
I’m told the Iowa game has already started. 4-2 Wisconsin early.

70-63 is the final, Northwestern wins at MSU
Just repeating that: “Northwestern wins at MSU.” My world has exploded.

Unsurprisingly
Krabbenhoft already has as many points as the Hawkeyes. 9-5 Badgers with 4 minutes gone.

Media timeout
Still 9-5 after Gatens misses two free throws. It seems inconsequential, but that triples the amount of FTs Gatens has missed all season.

NW won at MSU and gates missed two free throws...my god
are we booing jason bohannon yet??
I still love brad banks in the most heterosexual way possible
Are We Sure This Is Iowa?
The announcer keep talking about a willingness to ‘go inside’, and ‘not relying on the 3’…
'They are who we thought they were!'
Gatens hits a 3, 11-10
And motherfucker are these camera operators bad.

Brommer sucks so bad
I’ve seen children set better screens than Brommer. Small, sickly children.

Steal, Gatens layup, Iowa leads!
WHAT IS THIS IOWA TEAM WITH THE POINTS SCORING
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
Iowa With The Lead!
Gatens with a breakaway layup after a turnover. Wiscy takes a TO.

I'm not saying the BTN is starving for new ads
but I am saying a few hours of overtime and I can fund an “Oops Pow Surprise: not that bad of a guy!” ad campaign.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
That have something called
Truth in advertising laws that might prevent that from being aired…
'They are who we thought they were!'
Did Larivee just say Iowa "added to their lead"?
Because after that Palmer bucket, it’s 20-18 Iowa. 0 is not a lead.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
Seriously, stop calling the hand checks
it wasn’t a foul in the 1st 10 minutes, and it isn’t now.
Another atrocity of a call.
Landry acted like Peterson’s shoulder was made of hand grenade.

C'mon, Cole
the worst thing that happens there is you get fouled
To be fair
Palmer had just deposited his scrotum in that kid’s ear.

I feel for Gatens
He looks like he’s carrying everyone else on his back out there. Kelly needs to step it up with his midrange game a bit. Kelly is not consistent from the three the last few games. If, between those two and JP they can feed Palmer inside, they might stay in this one.
Terrible call on the jump ball.
Effectively wipes out a Palmer bucket, still 24.20.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
Iowa has been on 20 for a long ass time
I still love brad banks in the most heterosexual way possible
Scoring has ground to a halt.
Still 24-20. Iowa’s been at 20 for about 6 minutes.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
I'd keep hittting Landry in the mouth, too
He’s bullying his way around on the other end. Let’s back him off a bit.
time to give kelly a piece of bohannon now

24-20?
Thank you work for not allowing me to see this game. Good to see that we’re still setting the game back 40 years.
All the announcers keep saying
that Iowa is playing great defense and is avoiding the big runs. The defense has been fine but the real reason it’s still close is because Iowa has limited the turnovers. Fewer turnovers means fewer breakaways for the opponents and more shot attempts for the good guys.
What are there, three turnovers? One in the lane by Palmer, charge by Petersen, offensive foul (elbow) by Kelly?
Per the announcers, the Hawks have averaged 18 turnover per game the last three games.
And yes, there's your key, absolutely
If Iowa doesn’t give up easy points and gets shots on most of their possessions, then they’re efficient enough to stick with just about anybody. It’s those games where 1 out of every 4 possessions ends with a loose ball or a stupid charge or a pass thrown into a Sousaphone where Iowa gets in real trouble—they don’t have the type of defense that can make up a disparity like that.

David Palmer
I still can’t get over his uncanny resemblance to a young, pituitary-freaked Jay-Z.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
Gatens gets punched in the face and get called for the foul?
What game are the stripes watching?
How dare Gatens foul Krabb's elbow with his face
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
You should all be announcers
Now they are talking about fewer turnovers…
'They are who we thought they were!'
Palmer bringing the ball up is hilarious
Mainly because you can actually hear Lick’s hair going gray.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
Another reason Iowa is hanging tonight?
They’re showing a willingness/ability to get the ball down low. Thank you Palmer…
'They are who we thought they were!'
Palmer has half of Iowa's points
Game tied at 26.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
Iowa is continuing their pace...
One point a minute. At least they’ve dragged down WI with them this game…
'They are who we thought they were!'
Peterson on the line and gives Iowa the lead
One of Peterson’s best improvements has been his performance at the line. He’s in the high 80s, whereas last year he was, if I recall, below 75%.

Jesus...
I don’t normally like to blame refs for losing games… but holy shit those were a couple of bad calls on Iowa…
'They are who we thought they were!'
It would be nice they called the same game for the WHOLE game,
not just go into ticky-tack mode whenver they feel like it.
So Lickliter called a timeout at 11:57?
Tell me I’m wrong, somebody.
It looked to me
like he wanted to have a personal conversation with the ref that called the foul on Cole. That ref refused to look at Lick and stayed down at the far end of the floor.
Meanwhile, in scoreboard news
It’s 35-28, Wisconsin. Iowa has spent the better part of the last 4 minutes getting just abused by the referees. It’s sad to see when the refs don’t give Iowa a chance to compete.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
Holy shit, a foul on Wisconsin
and BTN shows Jeff Peterson.
If Iowa Could Find a Way
To not go into 6 and 7 minute scoring droughts they might be ok. But damn if this team doesn’t just go forever without scoring…
'They are who we thought they were!'
Iowa converts, 35-30.
Let’s see if the refs call a clean game.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
Easy traveling call on Wisco
And a nice runner by Kelly. 35-32, Iowa chipping away, 10 minutes left, TO Wisconsin.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
So Iowa Finally
Gets their turnovers down and their rebounding up, but decides they can’t shoot for shit. Just once i’d like to see them put it all together for a game…
'They are who we thought they were!'
They did
against Iowa State and UNI. Someone tell me how they beat UNI again?
Am I mistaken
that but for their unconscionable scoring droughts, Iowa has looked something approaching competent tonight? Maybe having to do with a start time that makes some semblance of fucking sense.
Does eating cheese
make you oddly tall and bleach your skin? In what factory does Wisky clone all these creatures?
Scandinavians abound up there.
Can’t blame them for thinking it’s just like home.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
Okay, the on-the-floor call was correct
but goddammit, you know.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
In other news, Wake Forest got beat at home tonight
no more unbeatens
There are few things in this world
greater than Gene Keady’s combover, they should have a mold of it made for the shithsoninan
So
Wisconsin’s offense consists of passing around aimlessly for 30 seconds then jacking up long 3’skills us. Oh, and how was that not traveling?
Game's getting "OPS just had sex with her" ugly again.
42-39 with 5 to play.

i just got home, Dolph impressed w/ President Palmer
18 pts! did we decide to wear yellow tonite or something?
this place smells like feet. i’ll bring a can of lysol next week.
Thats twice the asshole has elbowed Gatens
and twice Gatens gets called for it.
Lickliter doesn't know the rules
He doesn’t think “foul a guy’s elbow with your jaw” is a real foul.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
Dolph says Cody Larson
verbaled to Iowa, a player like Brian Cardinal…..Hansen excitied..

You would think that at some point
Lickliter would point that out to the officials…Bucky now in the 1-1.
I'm here.

That was
partially for Gatens getting his tooth knocked out by fouling with his face.
It was an awesome play - but watch out for Bo's T
He’s going to get some kind of makeup call in the next 60 seconds – like it or not.
Any screen shot
of one of these face fouls?
