It's not just the Cyclones who've had a rough month of February. It's been awfully cold and snowy this month, and there have been quite a few snow days for Nolan's kindergarten class (today being one of them). Earlier this month, Nolan missed a week of class due to Influenza A. Then this past weekend Maxwell broke our 50-inch TV by smashing it with a long Lincoln Log. To top it off, he pulled the chandelier down from above our dining room table this weekend as well. So yeah, I'm READY FOR MARCH.
As for the game, it was close all of the first half, but the Cyclones ended up pulling away in the second thanks to a good defensive effort. Iowa State was led by Marial Shayok, who dropped in 21 points. The only other Cyclone in double figures scoring was Talen Horton-Tucker, who had 18 points.
Tonight marks the sixth time that I have attended an ISU-Oklahoma basketball game. The Cyclones have won five of those six meetings (tonight, 2016, 2015, 2014, and 2013), while the Sooners won back in 2003. That 2016 game against Oklahoma was quite the memorable one, as the Sooners came into the game being ranked #1 in the country.
