As Iowa State’s men’s basketball season slumps along to a merciless end, an interesting trend popped up. Yesterday’s game with Oklahoma State started at 3:00pm locally on ESPN+. Extreme weather in that area prompted the change, but mid-afternoon weekday games have not been uncommon across the country this year. Many Iowa State fans might not have even been aware that the game was happening. The rest of this season needs as little awareness as possible, so let’s brainstorm when our remaining games should tip off. With any luck, we won’t have even known the games happened.
February 20th vs #9 Oklahoma
Folks will be more tuned in since this game is on a Saturday.
