*** Official Alabama State vs IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

[VeloClone]

Honestly I know some people haven't had the best experience with it but I absolutely love it. Last night I got home. Opened the app in Roku, and it already had the women's game right there for me since it knows my preferences.

It works well for me.

My only complaint is the rewind/fast forward feature is clunky and doesn't give any reliable information as to how much you have rewound or fast forwarded so you are doing so blind. When you enter the game late you have no idea how far back you have gone. It will do nothing for a while then suddenly jump back. You can't watch when you get through commercials since the time stamp doesn't work properly and it doesn't show you images of where you are like a DVR. It's a crap shoot but it is a minor beef.

The picture quality has been consistently great on my Xfinity box as others have mentioned.

Anyone want 2 free uppers to this game? I am not going tonight, too far on a weeknight, can't make them all.
PM me.

This board is not the place for dealing your drugs.

 

[ScottyP]

Agree. TJ will continue to figure out his substitution pattern and keep working on 4 and 5 development.

We likely won't have this figured out until close to conference play.

Any app that doesn’t have a YouTube like forward and backwards system is ridiculous. ESPN, HBO, Amazon Video, etc. it’s ridiculous. Maybe an app developer could help me with the ins and outs of that. Is it a backend decision? It’s just weird and unnecessary.

After we surpass last year's win total tonight, that's a # we shouldn't have to hear again this season.

Once I figured out I could use my Hulu app on my smart TV to watch the ESPN+ games, my experience has been much better.

We could hope to hear it a few more times when ISU is leading the nation in win total improvement year to year.



Yes, that is quite optimistic...

I'm OK enough with hearing it there.
It doesn't seem optimistic, really. If these guys hit 14-16 wins, and it seems like they can, who's really doing more in total win improvement?

 

[awd4cy]

Thank god it’s basketball season

 

[Cyinthenorth]

I anticipate a lot of missed shots from both sides tonight. On Draft Kings I am making the following plays:

ISU -19
ISU team total under 80.5
ASU team total under 60.5
Game total under 141.5

If I had to make a prediction, I am thinking 72-50 in favor of the good guys.

Show me the money, clones!

 

[CoKane]

I'm ready for some more fun basketball

Yeah, save that **** for the DMs. God damn, we don't need the mods on our trails or anything

Also, if you have ESPN+ app on phone and also own a Smart TV, you can cast from phone onto TV if both are on the same WiFi. Been great for me the past two games.

 

[t-noah]

This looks like one of the worst teams we'll face all year. Would like to see the bench and Walker get 15-20 minutes each so we can stay fresh. We need to be fully rested for the NYC trip next week.

I would like to see Walker.. not going to say anything...too late.



Translation: I'd like to see Walker play some minutes tonight!

 

[cyc26]

Prediction for game tonight: ISU - 78 ASU - 56

I think Conditt has a big night, if he stays out of foul trouble. ASU struggles against bigs. Hunter will be on double double watch for sure. Brockington and Gabe K will combine for around 30 and the clones roll.

Lets get after it!

 

[stormchaser2014]

Anyone know why ESPN doesn't list any commentators for men's basketball? They do for other sports.

 

[BeTheCyclone]

Scotty Thug Life. I really like the job he is doing. Can’t help but think it’s actually this guy though.

[ISUTex]

Everytime is see Alabama St or similar college, I always think of this. Makes me wish they brought their band tonight.

Inner city Dallas high schools bands are the same. Friday nights at Dallas Carter was quite a trip.

 

[ISUTex]

Was it called 'ESPN+' back in the day when they'd feed these types of games through local channels in Iowa?

KCRG Cedar Rapids would carry ISU and KGAN would carry Iowa.

I know it was an ESPN affiliate of some sort.

Raycom?
