Iowa State Is The First High Seed To Go Down, All Hail The UAB Blazers

Iowa State fan

You knew it was going to happen sooner or later, but maybe you didn’t quite think it’d happen *this* soon. But that’s the beauty of March. Just under three hours into the tournament, and we’ve already seen our first high seed go down. The unfortunate beneficiary of the major upset is No. 3 Iowa State, who fell to No. 14 UAB, 60-59.

Iowa State couldn’t get anything going offensively and shot just 36.9 percent on the game. The Cyclones got a good shot to tie, but it rimmed out, and UAB ended up actually tipping it into the Iowa State hoop. But time wasn’t exactly on Iowa State’s side at this point. All hail our dragon overlords.

Rest up, put eyedrops in your eyes, get something to eat. Something tells me this isn’t the only upset that will happen today.
