Road Trip to Kansas City

Nick Paulson and I will be heading to the heart of America tomorrow for the start of the Big 12 tournament. The Cyclones kick off the nightcap with a 8:30 tip off against Texas A&M. It'll be our first trip covering the tournament there. It'll also be the first time in Kansas City for the Big 12 tournament for one other person, ISU coach Greg McDermott.
"I haven't had an opportunity to experience it personally yet, (but I'M) really looking forward to that," McDermott said. "We need any edge we can get."
Especially against an Aggies team that handed the Cyclones their worst home loss of the season with a 69-51 dismantling of ISU on Jan. 18.
Despite the opponent, McDermott sounded eager to get down to the Sprint Center to see what everything is about. They hit the road today.
"I'm really looking forward to it," he said. "I've heard so much about it and what an impact Iowa State fans have in Kansas City and i'll be fun to experience it first hand."
