I'll be interested to see what Rasir Bolton does against us. He knows Michigan, to some degree, from his year at Penn State and he actually had 13 points against us in the upset at Happy Valley next year. Looking forward to the game.
November 27th, 2019 at 12:01 PM ^
I'm not sure how much his previous games against us mean with Howard coaching. The defense is a different style and the same with the offense.
November 27th, 2019 at 12:07 PM ^
Fair. I guess I just meant he might know a few of their players a bit more than the rest of the Iowa State players. But agreed about the difference between last year and this year.
November 27th, 2019 at 12:00 PM ^
Is this game not streamable through the ESPN app or web site?? Why the **** do I have ESPN+ if they aren't going to even stream their own games?
November 27th, 2019 at 12:03 PM ^
It is. Refresh maybe. Had to wait for whatever show to end and this didn't start until literally 12:00
November 27th, 2019 at 12:04 PM ^
Ok never mind--I found it on their site--it was just buried in the menus.
November 27th, 2019 at 12:05 PM ^
I don’t think you can.
I am about ready to kick Xfinity in the back.
November 27th, 2019 at 12:28 PM ^
No you can. It's on the website, it just wasn't on the front page.
November 27th, 2019 at 12:02 PM ^
John Sciambi and Jimmy Dykes calling this tournament is a nice refresher...they're a good combo!!
November 27th, 2019 at 12:03 PM ^
Concerned about Halliburton's length against Z
November 27th, 2019 at 12:05 PM ^
Yeeeeeah, here we go. LET'S GO BLUE!
November 27th, 2019 at 12:06 PM ^
Franz!!!
November 27th, 2019 at 12:06 PM ^
Franz with a SMOOTH stroke... Z with two early turnovers... WTF?
November 27th, 2019 at 12:10 PM ^
Yeah that is not a new thing contrary to what every announcer says. He was a turnover machine at the end of the year last season.
November 27th, 2019 at 12:07 PM ^
Z turnovers an issue this year
November 27th, 2019 at 12:07 PM ^
Z really sloppy this year
November 27th, 2019 at 12:11 PM ^
he is doing a lot more of the one-handed pass shit. looks cool when it works, but it results in a lot of TOs.
November 27th, 2019 at 12:08 PM ^
How does a 7"2 teske get his shit thrown on a layup … SOFT!
November 27th, 2019 at 12:08 PM ^
Yikes this isnt going well
November 27th, 2019 at 12:08 PM ^
Holy pathetic
November 27th, 2019 at 12:09 PM ^
Teske the bad screen and got called for it
November 27th, 2019 at 12:09 PM ^
Michigan not looking so sharp so far - let's go boys get it together!
November 27th, 2019 at 12:09 PM ^
offense is garbage right now. work a damn set play.
November 27th, 2019 at 1:57 PM ^
75 points isn’t garbage the turnovers are garbage
November 27th, 2019 at 12:09 PM ^
Defense looks like hot garbage this year
November 27th, 2019 at 12:09 PM ^
Wait he got called on another one?!!! Fuck that that was trash
November 27th, 2019 at 12:09 PM ^
ESPN predictor only gave UM a 33% chance to win.
November 27th, 2019 at 12:09 PM ^
What an absolute disaster of a start. Yikes.
November 27th, 2019 at 12:09 PM ^
I can see Michigan has the short straw with the officiating today. What else is new? Teske with 2 moving screens lmao!
November 27th, 2019 at 12:10 PM ^
These refs are trash. 2 BS moving-screen calls on Teske. That last player looked like he flopped. The team was already struggling, and now they’ll be without Teske for essentially the entire first half.
November 27th, 2019 at 12:10 PM ^
Lmao 3 minutes into the game and people are already losing it in here.
November 27th, 2019 at 12:10 PM ^
Officials not helping UM early. Letting them play, yet 2 BS moving screen calls.
Sometimes they look rushed with the ball, just slow down.
November 27th, 2019 at 12:10 PM ^
The two fouls on Teske are on Z for not using the screen properly. Second call was really weak though.
Franz looks good but his on ball D will be an issue.
November 27th, 2019 at 12:14 PM ^
First one seemed legit and on Teske
November 27th, 2019 at 12:11 PM ^
This is why I liked Teske hedging not dropping back like we seem to be favoring this year. At least wonder if we can mix it up
November 27th, 2019 at 12:13 PM ^
shit. thought they were going to call another illegal pick on castleton.
November 27th, 2019 at 12:13 PM ^
great start from Simpson
November 27th, 2019 at 12:13 PM ^
Phantom blocking call on Z
November 27th, 2019 at 12:14 PM ^
He got his elbow
November 27th, 2019 at 12:14 PM ^
And now trash refs call a bs foul on X.
November 27th, 2019 at 12:14 PM ^
michigan will lose this game
November 27th, 2019 at 12:15 PM ^
Good insight
November 27th, 2019 at 12:15 PM ^
Holy shit we look lost
November 27th, 2019 at 12:16 PM ^
Wagner looks huge.
November 27th, 2019 at 12:16 PM ^
Steve Prohm's guys putting on a clinic on how to defend us and showcase our weakness (Z)
November 27th, 2019 at 12:16 PM ^
Castleton brought his hustle game today
November 27th, 2019 at 12:17 PM ^
These refs are TOTAL GARBAGE. How do you call a foul on Simpson for not really even touching a shooter but don’t call ISU for mugging Teske. WTF
November 27th, 2019 at 12:17 PM ^
there ya go Z
November 27th, 2019 at 12:17 PM ^
Lot of bad decisions for a few minutes there. Brooks starting to get into it now. I wonder if some of the easy shots I State got there were from Wagner not being up to speed in a competitive game.
