IU at Illinois Game Thread 03/01 2 PM BTN

[Hovadipo]

Games need to live in 2.5 hour windows. This is ridiculous.

 

I’m fired up.

The BTN use to have alternate channels on DirectV and would show and they would show multiple games.  Somehow my tv bill hasn't gone down even though they got rid of them and cram games two hours apart now.

....and Rutgers runs no offense and chucks one up.  ******* OT.

I still have those, but they only use them during early football season when there are a bunch of bad non-con games the other networks won’t pick up.

I guess they're delaying the start? ... It's not even on the internet.

Time to cut the chord. I’m all streaming these days.

Looks as if getting bumped by Rutgers-Iowa women ... Better head on over to foxsports.com. 

It's telling me my subscription does not include access!  WTH?

Thanks.  Still majorly annoying.

Also loaded up IU/Illinois and they still have it on Iowa/Rutgers women's game even though it says IU/Illinois....and it's five minutes behind there.

[Feathery]

Go Rutgers. No fouls and milk the clock.

The alternate channels on my provider are in SD so I usually watch via streaming anyway

[pumpfake]

Let's see if when this women's game is over if they immediately switch to our game, stuff in a bunch of commercials first, or insist on doing somepost-game wrapup or interviews.

[FloridaHoosierGirl]

Just put it on the radio until it switches.  

[LamarCheeks]

Even the foxsports/B1G stream is showing the Rutgers-Iowa women. 

[LIHoosier]

fox sports streaming is dogcrap, thanks for the idea FHG

This is the amateur crap that makes everyone think they're 2nd rate compared to ESPN, regardless of how many sports/events they buy the rights to.

[LamarCheeks]

I go to foxsports.com, click on the IU-Illinois game and still get Rutgers-Iowa women -- and it's five minutes behind. Jeezus, foxsports and B1G, get the eff with it. This is asinine. 

[LIHoosier]

Game's on TV now, Brunk already has 2 fouls

[Hoosier Guy]

Brunk with two fouls at the first media timeout. No one could have seen that coming

[RaceToTheTop]

I don't know what to say right now.  I mean, I don't know what to say because I haven't seen a damn thing.  **** BTN and **** foxsports.com.

[JerryYeagley23]

I sound like a broken record, but I hate our starting five lineup.
