Who saw the whole game last night?

[SayHawkKid]

ESPN2 was a few minutes late due to the previous game running over. How many have an ESPN Alternate channel that carried the full game?

 

[LG210]

I viewed the first 3 or so game minutes on ESPN3.com.

 

[H8IAST8]

I did, ESPN 2 on Mediacom in DSM

It amazes me how long the final 2:30 of a basketball game can take when you are desperately wanting it to end. Alabama had the game won and they kept stopping play. It was driving me crazy.

I was ready to get angry that they were not going to get the beginning, then they switched. It was kinda nice.

I saw the whole thing and had a raspberry cone at half time.

I saw the whole game on ESPN2. They left the 'Bama game with a few minutes to go.
Did they not switch it where you are? I'm in Northern Iowa.

Did you sneak into the line with the students?

 

[MisterLucky]

ESPNU actually switched away from the Alabama/Arkansas game which was still in progress in order to start the Iowa game on time. Don't remember the last time that happened (Heidi game?). Most networks seem gunshy to terminate a broadcast like that, no matter what the score.

I sent my wife and daughter to get the cones.

This is what my HD feed from ESPN2 did up in Southern Minnesota.

I tried that but unfortunately for me the only channel that was coming in on my dish was ESPN2. Every other channel said Signal Loss so I was thankful just to get ESPN2 with no interruptions.

 

[SPGroth]

We were at Bushwood's in Cedar Rapids. ESPN2 left the Alabama/Arkansas game and showed the beginning of the Iowa/Wisky Game.

Sioux--that is some good delegation. You get the chocolate/raspberry twisting or straight up raspberry.
As for you sneaking in with the students......If you were a student that tall, they should have you on the court!

He can't, he used up his eligibility at one of those Dakota schools

 

[sioux34]

I heard Fiedorawitz was in the crowd and stormed the court, he is nearly as tall as I am. You know my eligibility is long gone.

SPG happens to know my secret identity.

 

[ssckelley]

Yeah CJ popped up on TV for us when they stormed the court. Hard to believe any of those football players passed on free pizza & ice cream.

Very True, ssckelley. He still has some game though.

 

[sioux34]

Don't tell them that game is Jarts now.

Mine was the opposite in Eastern Iowa. my ESPN2 was a complete signal loss at 8 for some reason. I was able to watch from start to finish on one of the alt channels, 146 I believe. It was not in HD which kind of sucked, but I gutted through it.

 

[SayHawkKid]

I can't believe Mediacom cut the end of the Alabama game in favor of the Hawks, they never did that when I had them. The Dish did have an ESPN alternate channel that showed it from the beginning.
