YAY HOOPS: Penn State vs. Iowa SECOND HALF Live Game Thread

It's ATTITUDE vs. RAGE: Round 2 as Penn State and Iowa engage in a grudge match at the Jordan Center. Hopefully, things will go much better for the Nittany Lions since this game is at home tonight. Also, if you like the remote possibility that Fran might pile-drive a chair again (see video above), then tune in to ESPNU at 9:00 PM ET to see how things unfold...

What's that? You're not one of the 50 people who gets ESPNU? Dios mio, man. Lucky for you, it's 2012, which means you can watch the game streaming live on the Internets via ESPN3.com. If you're still an unfortunate soul who can't watch, you can listen to Steve Jones and Dick Jerardi whisper sweet nothings in your ears on these local radio affiliates, Sirius Ch 113, or XM Ch 190.

EDIT: So, I'm an idiot and didn't realize the game tipped off at 8:00 PM ET. Open thread will remain as is for the second half.

And remember boys and girls: No porn, no comments that would draw praise from the KKK or Westboro Baptist Church, and no links to any streaming video feed other than ESPN3's.

It's pretty hard for announcers to pronounce things phonetically, huh?

Unis are expensive to buy and maintain.

But a lot of other bands seem to do well with rugby shirts, which I’m a huge proponent of. Greg Drane recently took the funds that usually go towards paying the Blue Banders a modest stipend during football season and instead put it into the school instrument maintenance fund, so no one would have to pay the fee at the beginning of the year. But I bet if you asked the band, they’d gladly pay the maintenance fee plus a little extra if they also got a POTL rugby polo that they’d get to keep.

Why are some ESPNU games on ESPN3 and some not?

Any short recap of this game would be helpful. Looks like they are doing well.

Being Marshall, like always

Here’s what you have to realize to cope with having Marshall on your team: He does things; things that sometimes ostensibly have no rhyme or reason to them. Sometimes they work. Sometimes they don’t. He plays hard, his teammates seem to like him, and his tempo free stats are respectable, if nowhere approaching awesome. He is never the fearless genius he seems like when things are working. He is never the selfish idiot he seems like when they don’t.

For an NBA comparison, see Verejao, Anderson during the LeBron years in Cleveland.

Iowa was so, so beatable last time

We shot like .0125% in the first half of the away game and were still kind of in it in the second. If we could have kept scoring at a semi-reasonable pace in the second half we would have (should have) won by double digits and been Big Mac’in it. But I’m just happy with squeaking out a win of any kind.

New team rule:

If you’re the guy who misses the shot that costs the fans the big macs, you do lunch hour in McD’s the next day.
