The Iowa State Basketball team will take on Iona Thursday afternoon in Denver in the NCAA Tournament. Iowa State is a 7.5 point favorite in this South Region first-round match-up against the Gaels, who won the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference. This should be a fun game to watch that could turn into a track meet. Iona is averaging 79-points a game and Iowa State is averaging 81.
Iowa and UNI will play their NCAA Tournament First Round games Friday. The Hawkeyes will take on Temple tomorrow afternoon at 2, while the Panthers will face Texas Friday night at 8:50.
