PrintBowling Green Falcons at Iowa Hawkeyes, Nov 20, 2009 8:05 PM CST
Why, when we realized that Iowa's playing Bowling Green tonight, was this the first thing that popped into our heads?
We're choosing to open a thread up, and yes, we've chosen poorly. But if you, dear readers, made nothing but wise decisions, you'd never have ended up at BHGP in the first place. So choose poorly with us, and see if our liveblog gets more Hawkeye fans than the arena! It's totally possible!
Plus, if bad things happen like we fear that they will, we'll try to gather all the melted faces and skulls so you can get yours back when the game's over.

Hooo boy
Am I wrong, or is this game just plain not televised?
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
For those of us with DirecTV...
The game is not being aired.
You can, however, pay $2.99 to watch it online. No, really, that’s your only option.
And I’m seriously debating whether to do it.

High School Football. Woo!
Everybody seeing A.J. Derby ripping it up against Marshalltown?

Again?
It’s happened more than once? Are we playing the Globetrotters?

Oh, hell, why not.
I owe it to you people to at least watch the game, right? Besides, I just upgraded the RAM today and I want to see how streaming video does.

They should be paying everyone to watch Iowa basketball.

This probably isn't any great surprise...
But considering how balky the video is (frequent buffering and skips), there is no goddamn way this was worth paying $3. Or anything.

did i miss anything?
Are we up by double digits? I think Shrek 3 is playing in HD, I’m guessing better than $ 3 interwebs vid feed. Score?
this place smells like feet. i’ll bring a can of lysol next week.

Iowa takes a 28-13 lead....
And immediately gets sloppy by committing turnovers on three consecutive possessions. 28-15 right now.

We have sightings!
J.R. Koch, Jake Jaacks, Duez Henderson, and the rest of the Sweet 16 gang are in the house.
Bowling Green is so thrilled by this news that they hit a 3. 28-18.

Bowling Green Audio Stream
http://www.bgsufalcons.com/sports/2009/8/6/_0806094338.aspx?
It’s not working for me, however. Perhaps because of this Bowling Green is currently experiencing technical difficulties with the stream. Audio may sound modulated or clipped. We apologize for the convenience."
It is free. So there’s that.
Okay, that was pretty slick.
Tucker to Cougill as time expires in the half, COugill with a nifty shot from about 8 feet, and Iowa leads 33-20 at the break.
Please let them not fuck this up.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
I watched the last 10 minutes of the half and our offense looked good
Lot’s of passing and movement, not the constipated dribbling in one place that we all know and love.
who would u rather have
Bullwinkle or Koch? Vote now…

I’d take Koch over Bullwinkle, I always liked him for some reason…

Koch is the correct answer
but still loses out slightly in a name contest.
It never gets to be easy
by chitownhawkeye on Nov 20, 2009 8:54 PM CST up reply actions
Easily.
Check out his bio. 5th in Iowa history in blocked shots, shot over 50%, double digit scoring his senior year. Hell, up until Haluska got drafted a couple years ago, Koch was the last Hawkeye drafted.
Why in the hell are we comparing him and Bawinkel? Makes no sense.

We're like the guys ...
playing Go Fish in the locker room in Caddyshack.
Don’t we have anything better to do?
Have any eights?

Iowa basketball.... hmmm
I think I’ll root against Boise State (ESPN2) instead.
Luck is probability taken personally, clutch is probability attributed to individuals.
7-7 against Utah St.

From @Lucasentric...
“Yowch what’s BG gonna do now? They have to play into the teeth of that ravenous student section. Good luck Falcons. You’re gonna need it.”
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
Oh and by the way
Iowa’s up 40-20. I caught none of those first 7 points on this feed.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
BG responds with two buckets...
and it’s 40-24. Mac is wondering aloud if Matt Gatens’ shoes are too slippery.

Utah St. converts 4th and 4 at midfield on a fake punt

followed by an attempted end around pass
nice to see an underdog going balls out

The offenses are going wild!
45-28 with about 7 minutes gone and Iowa at the line.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
Hell, if this keeps up...
Iowa might hit 70 tonight!
(NOTE: As usual, 70 Iowa points is like 580 normal team points.)
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
Nah
This one’s all on that AMAZING crowd! BG probably can’t even hear their coach during halftime breaks!
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
Is there an echo?
Maybe they’re distracted by that.

Devan Bawinkel looks like Tobey Maguire in that new "Sorry I banged your brother" movie
Which means I’m going to be irate if he doesn’t get piss drunk and fire a handgun into the ceiling of CHA by the end of the season.

In really good news...
Aaron Fuller’s getting his ankle x-rayed.

most entertaining game-tracker award
plays are recreated by inverted pylons. it’s just like not being there.
Iowa has hit their highest point output of the season
And has a 51-28 lead. Really. FML.

WE HAVE AN ANDREW BROMMER SIGHTING
Iowa will now lose by 40.
I got more rhymes than Wade Lookingbill's got dunks
Actually...
Bowling Green really might not make it to 40 points tonight. They are horrific.

We've secretly replaced your Iowa Basketball team with another team
Let’s see if anyone notices
It never gets to be easy
Which team?
Pella Windows?

i wonder
do the bowling green players leave the floor tonight saying ‘man, iowa is a tough team’
also, can a non-conference team be scheduled more than once a year? please?
The announcers are getting excited over Iowa's recruiting class
I’m not sure who “Devin Marble” is, though.

Eric May runs over a guy on a drive
And I could get used to that. He’s mean and strong like liquor.

Boise State TD, 17 yard run, untouched

62 whole points ...

14-14 Utah State/Boise State. The Boise State name is stupid. There’s an Idaho University and probably an Idaho State, far too lazy to go the google, but why Boise State?
Is there ...
A Boise University?

so assuming Florida, Alabama, Texas, TCU, Cincy, GT, OSU and Oregon are getting in, and there are no weird autoberth outcomes.
Iowa needs to jump two of Boise, Pitt and OkSt.
Boise has Utah St tonight, Nevada and New Mexico State the next two weeks.
Pitt has West Virginia and Cincy
Ok St. has Oklahoma
Luck is probability taken personally, clutch is probability attributed to individuals.
they would have to jump them
as far as the BCS rankings go, but as long as you’re in the top 14 the bowl can pick whoever they want…I think it will be Iowa
"I'm not doing any good back here."
by Hawkaloogie on Nov 20, 2009 10:07 PM CST up reply actions
yeah, that's what I mean
jump over them for bowl selection. They have a good shot to do it from behind in the BCS rankings, but I’d feel much better if they were ahead of them.
