So it would be $100 instead of $80? I have the annual pass so my son can watch the volleyball team and we can watch the couple of non conference basketball games that don't get put on the regular BTN.
I'm sure it comes down to funding. Heck they don't have anyone paying for advertising in between innings. I wonder just how many people are actually watching these games. The budget is probably crap.
HAWKEYES WIN!!!!!!
Nedved only needed 8 pitches for the bottom of the 9th. That's huge, he should be available for tomorrow.
I sure hope no one paid to watch this BTN+ coverage. All they have is a camera behind the plate and it's shaky as heck. The Rutgers play by play guy sounds like he is calling the game from the concession stand with all the noise and you can hear another play by play guy talking.
How about the old score board? They don't even have a video board.
Maybe Iowa is better with the analytic side of things than Nebraska?The Iowa pitching was tremendous. It was bad timing that RU was without arguably the best big 10 hitter as well as it’s two usual left hand hitting starters, who both hit in the 300s, just when they go up against arguably the best right hander in the Big Ten. However, I’m not sure anyone could have hit him yesterday. He was so pinpoint with that slider.
It is interesting that the announcers were talking yesterday about how Mazur came to Iowa in part because of the analytics available, and how much they improved him. When RU swept at Nebraska all their fans were complaining that overreliance on the same analytics caused all of their establish pitchers’ performances to deteriorate.
Iowa Wbb had a couple early season games like this. tried to sync with radio, but but no go.
Ugh! Still no Cimino, Sleight or Sheikopher (sp?) for us and you have another quality right hander going today. I’m getting a little nervous.
I know Cimino got injured in a collision at home plate and limped off a couple of games ago. I don’t know the other two. The fourth injury, to the usual back up catcher, was a concussion. I thought he was cleared, But he is not starting. It really showed in the Princeton game where the 16 game winning streak was snapped. On the other hand, I don’t know if anyone could have hit your pitcher in game one here.when did they get injured? what are their injuries?
Williams walks, advances to 2nd on a Wild Pitch
Anthony reaches on Error, Williams Scores
Heading to Bottom of 1st:
1 IOWA
0 RU
I almost forgot to mention, not having Shiekofer in right field is killer.I know Cimino got injured in a collision at home plate and limped off a couple of games ago. I don’t know the other two. The fourth injury, to the usual back up catcher, was a concussion. I thought he was cleared, But he is not starting.
