7pm on the ‘Cock
Iowa +8.5
O/U 146.5

It’s senior night as Iowa (20-9, 10-8) host Michigan (27-2, 17-1).

The Hawkeyes are sliding at the wrong time of the year, losing 4 of their last six games. Michigan is playing some great basketball and their only loss in the last 15 games was to #1 Duke on the road by 5 points.

I’m not gonna sugar coat this one, hawks are gonna get rolled 87-69

Fully expecting an L tonight, but would sacrifice and/or sell my liver for a W.

I have Sports Pack but seem to not get 619.
Maybe a link can be found?
Weird.

When you tune to it, does it just show the generic D* screen with elevator music - which it does when a game isn't playing - or does it give a "you can't view this channel"?

I also have a Peacock sub, through D*, so maybe that's it? But I doubt it.

Don't feel good about this one. It's like a freight train colliding with a small car. Feels like an 87-62 kind of game. I hope Ben can somehow shock the world.

May need to play Rare lineup of Cam, Alvaro, Banks, Koch, and Stirtz tonight to offset some of Michigans size tonight. These huge front courts I just don't think Iowa can matchup with by playing normal rotation. Going to need to play well to just keep it close.

IF we somehow split with Michigan & Nebraska, we are still very likely to end up as the #9 seed in the B1G Tournament, where we would play the first game on Wednesday morning (11 am CT).

Projected B1G Tourney seeds if Iowa goes 1-1 over their next 2 games:

1. Michigan (18 - 2)

2. Nebraska (15 - 5)

Above Mich St and Illinois based on round-robin record (2-1).

3. Michigan State (15 - 5)
Above Illinois and below Nebraska based on round-robin record (1-1).

4. Illinois (15 - 5)
Below Nebraska and Mich St based on round-robin record (1-2).

5. Purdue (14 - 6)

6. Wisconsin (13 - 7)

Above UCLA based on head-to-head record (1-0).

7. UCLA (13 - 7)
8. Ohio State (12 - 8)
9. IOWA (11 - 9)
10. Indiana (9 - 11)

Generic dtv screen with music, right now.
I tried to record game and it said my receiver not authorized
Maybe my package does not include it, but I do get BTN,ESPN+,Chicago sports network,ect.
No streaming.
Maybe head to bar for game.

I hope that Michigan clears the bench in the 2nd half and has mercy on Ben
