Anyone know how long until the replay is available on ESPN+? I wasn’t able to watch other than the first 5 minutes
Already up in the espn app (need a provider login still j think?). Just have to go to 'Watch' > click the calendar (Schedule) > then select Replay. Shows up for me.

Houston blowing a lead at Cincy. This Sampson guy is a joker

In the long run I think Cincy is going to be the better Big 12 program of the two. Obviously Houston has had the two elite eras just shy of NCs...but Cincinnati has had a ton of tough teams over the decades.

This is a legit atmosphere for a team that's probably on the bubble leaning towards in.

Yikes. Wtf are you saying? So Wisconsin should be considered as a 5 seed or better?

5 seed at best is pretty clear.

Don't just look at the Q1 record, look at thr actual games. HTF a terrible MSU team is 22 or so on NET I have no idea, but they are a BAD team. Then look at the rest of their wins, the only one that jumps out is Marquette.

The big difference in schedules are the lower level comp. When said comp is played at home there isn't much difference in win expectstion. That difference is manifested in margin of victory.

Especially down the stretch when a lot of the basketball wizards on here would tell you there is no way he should be on the floor.

He should be on the floor. He just needs to shoot dunks only. Maybe a layup or two. Probably doesn't need to be on the floor when the opposition is going to try to put ISU on the free throw line.

Massive opportunity next week at Cincinnati. Grab that road win and things get really interesting. This is one of those moments where a chance to take that next step is there with a winnable game. Can we do it?

Winning on the road is tough and Cincy is a solid team

As they are showing at the moment. Houston jumped all over them to start but Cinci has came back with a vengeance and rbe crowd is responding well.

Will be tough for sure. Shooting FTs reasonably well would help tremendously.

Looked like Tamin jammed his fingers on that one play. Also, what was Otz and the ref laughing about on that timeout in the first half? I wondered if Dixon told the ref about ISU stealing plays, and the ref and Otz were laughing at this.
