Two weeks ago, the Ohio State Buckeyes were a team very much on the bubble, and were trending in the wrong direction. But, they found their way to the NCAA Tournament. Now, they’ll be staying in Tulsa, Okla., for a couple more nights, as they toppled the No. 6 Iowa State Cyclones in the first round on Friday night.
The game wasn’t always pretty; in fact, with just under four minutes remaining, the Cyclones had the lead. However, OSU dug deep to regain — and maintain — the lead at the end, and that’s all that matters.
