Game Thread XXXV: Ohio State

We welcome all of you to the official game thread on WRNL of the basketball game this late Friday night. Be sure to log in and be in the know on all things Cyclones. It is a wonderful time of year! What a terrific showdown between two Land Grant schools both known for potato production. Let’s see who can figure out the cure for potato blight first.

The #6 seeded Iowa State Cyclones (23-11; 9-9) battle the #11 seeded Idaho State Buckeyes (19-14; 8-12) in Tulsa, Oklahoma, for the first round of the NCAA tournament, AKA: The Big Dance. The Cyclones have never beaten the Buckeyes and are a 5.5 point favorite.

Give us a call into the show: “You Call, We Drink”. There will be a call in number on our Twitter page, 15 minutes post game. We hope you enjoy the game, and we all hope for the outcome we know we are capable of.

Welcome to the Big Dance. GO CYCLONES!
