Anyone know why btn2go feed says 7pm start right now? Are they showing broadcast on tape delay?

IDK but this is a very recent tweet from IUMS

FWIW, Northwestern is working on the BTN Plus stream and it should be working here shortly.

Northwestern is always very amateurish with this kind of stuff.

Their twitter feed should be alerting of the issue not ours. They're the home team. The problem is the feed is locked because either the Big Ten or Northwestern put the wrong time on the btn feed so it is not reading that the broadcast has started. This is something that should of been caught and fixed before the game. Just carelessness.

GOAL HOOSIERS! Mason Toye finishes from close range in the 9th minute to give IU a 1-0 lead at Northwestern!

Saw that on that on the twitter feed. Without seeing what happened hard to say but it does continue to show Toye is our best option at forward.

On the goal, Thomas sent a ball in to Swartz, who's shot was saved. Rebound fell to Toye, who buried it from five yards out.

Got you. I went there once when I happened to be in Chicago a couple years ago (have tons of family and friends there). Awful stadium. Pretty view of lake but facilities lack with just an old bleacher, porta potties instead of permanent restrooms and no real facilities of any kind on site. Don't know if anythings changed with how much they are upgrading facilities but that was my experience when I went  

[Aaron 4,147]

Feed working finally. Stadium as bad as I remember. Gorgeous view of lake but terrible facility.

Well we got to halftime with the lead. The last few minutes I saw we did not play great but did manage to get a goal early which is hard given how Northwestern sits behind the ball and with 8-9 men back.

Should have finished that opportunity too. Just wide

Finally a 2nd goal! Gutman sent one in that was deflected and saved but Thomas put in the rebound. Northwestern still throwing tons of men behind the ball on D prior to the goal but we have broke them down patiently unlike last year.

[Aaron 4,147]

Clearly these announcers don't know that college soccer allows unlimited subbing (except once you leave in first half you cannot return with same player till 2nd half) wondering if Northwestern has subs left. Got to prepare better and learn rule differences when calling game.

Still 2-0 late with IU getting additional chances as Northwestern starts bringing men forward needing goals.

[Class of '66 Old Fart 80,936]

Northwestern keeping their men back really shows up in the stats as we've taken 17 shots; Northwestern only 5.

[Aaron 4,147]

IU wins! This is not a good Northwestern team but the way they throw men back on d and how frustrated we have been in past with ties against them this is a positive. We were much more patient against them compared with the last few times and broke them down for the goals we needed after a bad performance against Michigan. Also defense looked much sharper than last game as Northwestern only had one dangerous chance late in the game but otherwise we controlled play. 

Need same performance against an equally bad Rutgers team (They are 1-5-1 allowing almost 3 goals a game and have scored more than once only against a bad Oral Roberts team) at home Friday as this is another must 3 point game.

Sounded like we pretty much dominated them on both sides (just from updates)?

Yes definitely

It's nice to get the win but I'm still not bullish on this team yet.
